Publisher Description
Mark Goldman has never gotten along with Shaina Fogel. Ever. Even when they were in diapers, their bestie mothers wanted them to grow up and get married. Not happening. Mark prefers his quiet, reserved life. But a family wedding is about to change everything Mark thought he knew about his archnemesis.
A week of wedding events with Mark Goldman? Shaina would rather have a week of root canals. Maybe the guy is hot, but for their entire lives, he’s never once acknowledged that she's hard of hearing. So it comes as a massive surprise when she discovers that Mr. High-and-Mighty and Annoyingly Sexy simply didn’t know she couldn't hear him. And now she needs his help.
When it’s revealed that the weeklong wedding events are actually a weeklong competition—for a dream vacation—Mark and Shaina do the unthinkable: they decide to work together. And the second the animosity begins to fade, something even more electric takes its place. Only now it’s not just an attraction between enemies. And nothing could be worse than the fact that their mothers might have had it right…
Customer Reviews
The Un-arranged Marriage
Loved Mark and Shaina! I,too, am hearing impaired so I identified with feeling less than because I don’t always understand what people are saying to me. I am an excellent lip reader and get frustrated when people who know me try to carry on a conversation with me without looking at me. We get frustrated with each other! I interrupt people doing this and say, “look at me” so I can understand what you are saying. My husband of 32 years still can’t remember that he has to look at me when talking to me! I loved Mark for making an effort to speak in a level that she could understand. I did not give 5 stars because of the open door intimacy.
Feel Good Book
I cried because of how good this book made me feel… enough said. I’m ready for love.
Author really gets it.
This was the first book so well written that described what it’s like being hearing impaired and wearing hearing aids. I’ve dealt with this with family and friends who just don’t get it. And why I always feel left out of so many moments in my life. Good job!
