My Review:

Another Bailey brother? Yes, please! I was shocked when I saw Miles Bailey Gets Down on One Knee. After bingeing the first two books in the series I knew Miles was not dating anyone. 

I have to admit, when I first started reading I wasn't sure if I was going to like Delaney. I was thankful the reality show she was on wasn't the main focus of the book. I adore Miles and I ended up loving this story.

Read for:

šŸ’marriage of convenience

šŸ’Opposites attract

šŸ’the Bailey family

šŸ’Alice (her scenes are just so funny and sweet)

šŸ’discovering what's important

šŸ’Miles's students (disability rep)

šŸ’the chemistry

šŸ’forced proximity

šŸ’LOL moments

While this is a fabulous romcom, it is also a story with heart and depth. Delaney's family is a mess, and both characters experience growth. I could go on and on about how sweet the story is, but do us both a favor and just go read it. However, if you have not read the first two in the series, I insist you read them first šŸ˜‰.

ā˜…ā˜…ā˜…ā˜…ā˜…/5

Synopsis (Goodreads): 

I am Delaney Jones, courageous enough to defy my mother, fearless enough to leave my successful rock band, and daring enough to propose to a perfect stranger.
Delaney:
Miles wasnā€™t planned.
Which kind of made him perfect.

Sure, Iā€™d just said noā€”to a load of handsome men on a reality show designed to find me a husband, but I didnā€™t want any of them.

I donā€™t want Miles eitherā€”at least, I think I donā€™t. Itā€™s the perfect scenario because, unlike all those guys on that show, he doesnā€™t want me either. No broken hearts.

Canā€™t we all just play nice? A convenient, image-building marriage without all the bitter rejection? Thatā€™s all Iā€™m asking.

Yep, Miles is perfect for the job.
Or at least he would be if my heart would stop betraying me every time he walked into the room.

Miles:
She gave me one job.
One.
Donā€™t fall in love with her.

Thatā€™s all I have to do and my stagnant career is going to take off, like a rocket.
As long as I follow the rules.

But Delaney never mentioned how very difficult those rules would be to follow. She makes them difficult. If Iā€™d known I wasnā€™t just entering a marriage of convenience, but a DEFCON two marriage, I may have thought twice before slipping that gold band on her finger.

Marry the girl. Check.
Be seen with the girl. Check.
Donā€™t fall in love with the girl. Crap.
