About the Book
Madison Huntington is determined to live her dreams. That means getting out from under her family’s wealth and influence by saying no to the family business, her allowance, and her home. But on a teacher’s salary, the real world comes as a rude awakening—especially when she wakes up every morning on a colleague’s couch. To get a place of her own (without cockroaches, mold, or crime scene tape), Madison accepts a position as a roommaid. In exchange for free room and board, all she needs to do is keep her busy roommate’s penthouse clean and his dog company. So what if she’s never washed a dish in her life. She can figure this out, right?
Madison is pretty confident she can fake it well enough that Tyler Roth will never know the difference. The finance whiz is rich and privileged and navigates the same social circles as her parents—but to him she’s just a teacher in need of an apartment. He’s everything Madison has run from, but his kindhearted nature, stomach-fluttering smile, and unexpected insecurities only make her want to get closer. And Tyler is warming to the move.
Rewarding job. Perfect guy. Great future. With everything so right, what could go wrong? Madison is about to find out.
My Review
Sometimes I’m just in the mood for a good rom com, and if you’re feeling that way, I would check out Roommaid. While it’s a little on the predictable side, the characters were still interesting and enjoyable to follow around. Madison is trying to break away from her overbearing family – and trust fund – and make it on her own, and scores an amazing deal to be a roommate to Tyler. The only catch in the situation is she has to essentially be the maid – a position she is used to employing – but is determined to change her life around. Tyler is the nice guy, definitely a character I instantly took a liking to – but also wondered what the catch was. Watching the two of them go back and forth sometimes drove me a little mad, but in the end I really got on with this novel and would recommend!
