Black Ties and White Lies

A Black Tie Billionaires Standalone

By: Kat Singleton

Narrated by: Savannah Peachwood, Lee Samuels

Life is never black and white.

One minute you’re a struggling graphic designer in L.A. who's finally coming to terms with being single forever, and the next, you're flying to New York in a private jet to get engaged to your ex-boyfriend’s older brother.

At least...that’s what everyone thinks.

Forced to clean up his playboy image in order to protect his company, Beckham Sinclair, the city’s most eligible billionaire bachelor, wants me to be his fake fiancée and personal assistant. Now I'm spending every spare second with a man I thought I’d never see again.

My freshly mended heart has barely recovered from the first time a Sinclair broke it. But with each passing day, Beck’s dirty mouth and lingering stares make me question his motives—and mine.

As the line blurs between real and pretend, only one thing is certain: there are secrets hiding in this city full of black ties and white lies.

OMG the BEST sex ever!!!! 🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰

the first 6 chapters are REALLY hard to get through because the female complains A LOT she nags and bit**** about literally everything but after the cute BECK gets his way with her she is much more tolerable
and bravo to the author for writing one big sex scene last for 6 chapters. that was freaking HOT
I was so twisted inside lol
10 stars 🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩

I could not stop listening once I started

I don’t think I’ve EVER reviewed an audiobook before? But this one took me by surprise in the best ways. It felt like a fresh take on an already captivating trope (fake dating/engagement). Kat’s writing is INCREDIBLE and absolutely draws you in from the first word. The narrators felt like listening to the “real” people instead of actors. It was just flawlessly executed.

My favorite tropes in this book:
✨ex-boyfriend’s brother
✨fake dating/engagement
✨close proximity
✨one bed
✨HOT/funny email banter
✨”it was never fake to me”

If you’re a fan of steamy romances, absolutely RUN to this book. The only thing I’ll say in complaint is that you will be sad that you’ll never be able to read it for the first time again.

Great narrators

I'd read the story before but really enjoyed listening to both narrators. Each did a great job with their main characters as well as the others in their chapters.

Meh.

With all the amazing reviews, I was positive this book would have more angst and depth. it didn’t. It’s moreso for someone who likes light, breezy romances and little-to-no actual catastrophic conflict. I’m only just realizing that the reviewers are ppl who actually like this …er…stuff. All fluff. No dark.

Sure, there are two sort of? climatic events in the story, but they’re pretty boring. And here we go again introducing the next story in the middle of this one. Like an advertisement for the next book.

Oh, and the sex scenes everyone seems to be all googly-eyed over? Mid at best. They’re so long because 3/4 of the time, they’re reexplaining what they’re doing.

Like this: “I’m going to eat these potato chips so good.” I’ve been dying to tell her how much I want her chips for as long as I can remember. I slowly grab a chip and taste it. No other potato chip will ever compare.”

That’s what you’re spending your credit on. If you want less light, I’d skip this one.

Loved it!!

I loved the story and the narration!! Overall it was good and worth the time.
