Fake Empire

Kensingtons, Book 1

By: C.W. Farnsworth

Narrated by: Veronica Fox, Aaron Shedlock

A standalone, steamy arranged marriage romance.

There's rich.

Then there's the Ellsworth family. The Kensingtons. American royalty.

Money buys power, and power always has a price. The fear of those who already possess both? Losing it. The best way to ensure keeping it? Alliances. And elites don't marry down—they marry equal.

For Scarlett Ellsworth and Crew Kensington, that leaves one option: each other. Accepting that inevitability is very different from embracing it. That's the only thing they agree upon.

It was meant to be a union for better and for business.

Instead, it challenges everything Scarlett and Crew thought they knew about themselves, their families, and most of all . . . each other.

good

a bit too much sex but pretty good story. I'll listen to next one. 4 out ofc5

still my favorite

I read this on Kindle years ago, but this relisten was just what I needed. Scarlett and Crew brought to life by Fox and Shedlock. I thought they really brought out the dry humor beautifully.

This book is a great contemporary marriage of convenience which is one of my favorite tropes. I loved watching Crew and Scarlett figure out how they felt about each other. I love how evenly matched they were. I loved the communication, the banter, and the steamy romance.

An awesome arranged marriage!

This was great on audio! I really enjoyed it. It was different for me because arranged marriages I’ve read are typically mafia and this wasn’t, so that was really enjoyable!

I was not expecting to like this

Honestly, I picked this book on a total whim. I have never read anything by Farnsworth before I loved the story, I loved the character development, the narration was awesome I can’t wait to read more by this author five stars

Arranged billionaire marriage

I loved this book but I had to keep saying- say what you feel. I was sucked in and loved they narrators take on the couples interactions! I can say this author is one that never lets me down!
