Breaking News: Rugby’s bad boy marries his best friend’s little sister
If Renn Brewer would’ve asked me to marry him, I would’ve said no.
Why?
One, his reputation precedes him. His name is in the headlines at least once a month. Two, he’s not just my brother’s best friend. They’re teammates. And three, I’m in my self-care era.
Unfortunately, a version of me equates self-care with bad choices.
The cocktail in my hand—similar to the one that got me into this situation—is the prettiest shade of pink. It’s almost the same color as the giant rock on my left hand. And instead of discussing an annulment, I’m considering a 90-day marriage of convenience to the man I accidentally married in Las Vegas.
Renn didn’t propose marriage. But he does deliver a proposal I might be unable to turn down.

USA Today and Amazon Charts Bestselling author Adriana Locke delivers a "spicy & sweet!" forbidden sports romance with a marriage of convenience that will make you swoon!

    5.0 out of 5 stars Accidental Las Vegas Marriage to Your Best Friend's Little Sister
    Reviewed in the United States on August 18, 2023
    I absolutely loved The Proposal by Adriana Locke; it is an incredible accidental marriage - fake relationship love story. It is supposed to be a standalone book, but I am hoping that Adriana Locke writes a series for the Brewer siblings. Adriana Locke continues to prove that she is an amazing storyteller and continues to be one of my favorite authors to read. It was impossible to put The Proposal down and I loved every moment on every page. Who does not love hot sexy men, strong females, loving families, and friends, who always support one another? I really enjoy how the book is told in the first person from the perspective of the main characters. I love getting the insight and feelings from the different characters. I love how Adriana Locke always manages to create the "perfect" heroine, who is a strong, sassy woman on her own, to balance out the sexy, swoon worthy man. Adriana Locke continues to deliver all that and so much more. The Proposal is an accidental marriage - fake relationship love story and is filled with heartbreaking and heartwarming moments. The Proposal is the story of Renn Brewer, the bad boy of rugby and his best friend, Brock’s little sister, Blakely Evans, recently promoted as the new artist assistant at Mason Music Label. Renn recently signed a contract with the Tennessee Royals, and they made him sign a good boy clause. Blakely and her best friend and her brother’s girlfriend, Ella St. James head to Las Vegas to celebrate Blakely’s thirtieth birthday. Renn and Brock surprise them in Vegas to celebrate Blakely’s birthday. Ella and Brock return to the hotel room, and Blakely and Renn continue partying and wake up in bed together the following morning only to discover that they got married. Blakely agrees to continue her fake relationship with Renn for ninety days because of his good boy clause. I love the contract that they draw up on their way to their honeymoon. Conversation between Blakely and Renn flows so easily, especially their playful banter. I love how Blakely is always asking about Renn’s brother, Tate. I love that both Blakely and Renn share secrets with one another that they have not shared with anyone before, the secrets that both Blakely and Renn share about their families and discuss their plans for the future Blakely suffers from insecurities because of her upbringing and is hoping to find someone who will love her and is looking for a forever love and someone to start a family with. Renn on the other hand is not looking for a relationship. I love the chemistry between Blakely and Renn. As Blakely and Renn spend time together on their honeymoon, things quickly change between them, neither one is willing to admit their true feelings for one another. Some of their conversations between Blakely and Renn are truly heartbreaking. I love the surprise birthday gift that Renn had delivered and gave to Blakely. A heart-breaking plot twist occurs at Brewer home, which changes everything between Renn and Renn. I love the heart-to-heart conversation that Blakely and Renn have with Renn’s mother, Rory, especially the heart-to-heart conversation that Renn has with his mother following his breakup with Blakely. I love everything that Renn does to get back together with Blakely. I loved that The Proposal is more than just a romance, there are issues that both Blakely and Renn are facing that need to be resolved. I love how the storylines get so beautifully resolved. I love how the epilogue is the perfect ending to their love story. The Proposal is filled with poignant and bittersweet moments as well as plot twists that I have come to love and expect in an Adriana Locke love story. I love the characters and the family dynamic in The Proposal, the characters feel like family and friends. I enjoyed all the interactions between the Brewer siblings, it feels like real family love and makes me laugh at their teasing. I loved all the characters in The Proposal, and I am hoping that there will be more books with the Brewer siblings. Loved seeing Foxx Carmichael and loved that Blakely called him “Foxxy.” Who does not love family and friends that always have each other’s backs? I thoroughly enjoyed The Proposal, who does not love an accidental marriage - fake relationship love story. Highly recommend this incredible love story and am so hoping for other books in the series.

    This book was so much fun to read. I loved the storyline and adored the characters. Renn and Blakley’s journey had me laughing and swooning, and had my heart breaking; but the roller coaster of emotions was worth it. A fantastic start to this new series.

    5.0 out of 5 stars “This might be the best mistake I’ve ever made.”

    Oh please, please, please tell me there's going to be a Brewer family series and that this won’t be a standalone! We get just enough of Renn's siblings in his romance that I have to have more. And I’ll let you in on a little secret. We also get a tiny bit of insight into the elusive Foxx Carmichael, just in time for his upcoming story in Flame.

    The story starts from Blakely Evans' POV, the younger sister of Renn's pro rugby teammate and best friend, Brock. Blakely and her BFF Ella are in Vegas celebrating Blakely's thirtieth birthday, but their girl's weekend is crashed by Renn and her brother Brock, who is on-again-off-again with Ella. While Brock and Ella are getting back to on again, Renn and Blakely are out on the town, having g fun, and drinking way too much. Sooo, the next morning they wake up in the same bed, married.

    But Blakely has decided her thirties will be a time of finding the right guy who has forever in mind. She wants to get her life in order, do responsible things, and settle down. And what does a charming, swaggering, player who only looks as far down the road as right now have to offer?

    These two have been flirting and circling around each other for ten long years, but neither ever made a move. Finally, they’re in a situation where they get the chance to see each other through fresh eyes and consider what forever might look for them.

    Gah y'all, this one is so freakin' good!! Renn and Blakely are perfect together, and I loved the side romance with Brock and Ella. And Renn's family? There's some complicated stuff there, but they’re so welcoming to Blakely, and she finally has a chance at having the family she's longed for. I fell head over heels for these two and have no doubt you'll adore them as much as I do. Funny, charming, steamy, and full of heart, you won’t want to pass up this one!
