Cover of The Run Option

Jason Kingsley is not who I expected to marry. I didn’t expect to marry anyone so soon, especially not the cocky star quarterback I can’t stand. But when my work visa expires the same day Jason and I are caught looking a little too much like a couple…I have no choice but to pretend this fake marriage is real. Jason needs good publicity, and I need to stay in the U.S., so we’re stuck together. Except, Jason isn’t acting like he’s stuck. He’s playing the doting husband a little too well. The more time I spend with him, the more I begin to question if my opinions of him have been wrong this whole time. Not that it matters though, because we made a deal, and that deal does not include falling for my husband.

Cat Thompson — 3.5/5

Jason is star quarterback for a professional football team and Willow is the social media manager for the team. Jason is ever the flirt and Willow won’t have any of it…until she gets the notice that she’s being deported. I loved the banter in this book and the marriage of convenience was done really well!! Willow and Jason were classic enemies to lovers, and the way Annah writes about them always has me giggling. My problem with the book was just that Jason fell so hard for her without any build up, really. She’s always hated him and he’s always been head over heels for her for no reason. I just feel like their relationship could have developed a little more beforehand. Regardless, Annah Conwell always provides a read that has me giggling and rooting for the main characters!
