Her first thought: "Who are you?"

It's the morning after her cousin's bachelorette party in Vegas and Megan Scott wakes up with the mother of all hangovers. Even worse, she's in a stranger's penthouse having woken up with something else as well - a funny, arrogant, sexy...husband!

Up until now, finding even a boyfriend had seemed impossible - been there, got the broken heart, sworn off men for good. Then a few martinis with Carter...no, Connor Reed and she's gone from first meet to marriage in one night!

Megan wants a lawyer. But Connor's shocking bombshell?

"I don't want a divorce."

Waking-up Married by Mira Lyn Kelly is about Connor Reed and Megan Scott who after a wonderful evening wake-up to find themselves married! I have to say I enjoyed this book. It was a fun, light-hearted read that tugged at my own emotions just a little. Megan is an independent woman who isn’t looking for love. In fact she’s given up on men entirely, going as far as setting up an appointment for in vitro fertilization because really who needs a man 🙄 Connor also isn’t looking for love in a relationship, instead he wants a partner (basically all the fun stuff of marriage without the emotional drama of love). He finds that in Megan, at least he thinks he does. But as we all know women are emotional creatures and as he convinces her to stay with him she finds herself falling and falling hard.

I can’t say I blame her. Connor is kinda perfect and he worships her! The relationship that builds between them is a bit superficial to begin with, but as the book progresses the author does a nice job of showing how the two characters just fit together like two pieces of one puzzle. It’s a sweet story full of highs and lows. I also cannot deny that I found myself snickering through several parts. If you enjoy contemporary romance, new adult fiction, or romantic comedies than I believe you’ll enjoy this book 😀 (FYI: this book does contain sexual content, so I recommend it for mature audiences ONLY)
