Love Happens Anyway by R.J. ScottMy rating: 4 of 5 stars
A cute, sweet, wonderfully warm and fuzzy, feel good Christmas story. Derek is so insecure and a failure at relationships that he’s made up a boyfriend. And that worked for him until his mom and dad insisted on meeting this boyfriend. In panic mode, he tries an agency that ‘rents’ companions, there he hires Luke. But Luke can’t be Luke, he’s Marcus because that’s the name of said imaginary boyfriend.
Injured in a building fire, Luke’s firefighting days are over. But he needs money fast, to pay bills so he can keep the bar that belongs to his family. The bank has turned him down, it’s the only reason he took the job with Derek. It has nothing to do with the spark of interest he feels. When a planned PDA kiss turns into more, can they both get past the contract and into a real relationship? Through the magic of Christmas, these two souls find love and happiness with each other.
This was a great story, well written with laughs and a few breathe catching moments when they’re at the bar’s memorial. There are a few tears for the loss of Luke’s career. It has a wonderful cast of secondary characters. I loved everything about this story.
