Ruby was several months behind on rent and couldn’t seem to find a steady job with a regular income. She had one grand opportunity to turn things around with an audition. But instead of getting a big break through the audition, she got sick and bombed entirely in the most embarrassing fashion. All thanks to a charming guy who first kissed and then coughed on her. All that happened at a party just the night before.
Her best friend luckily might have found the perfect opportunity. It was a job to stay at a luxurious penthouse apartment while the owner was out of town. The owner of that was Bancroft Mills, a hotel magnate. Her job there was to take care of his exotic pets. But when Ruby arrives at the place to meet her new employer, it turned out that Bancroft was the same guy who got her sick. Seeing his role in the dilemma of Ruby, Bancroft offered her a permanent job in the capacity of his live-in pet sitter, until the time she could get back on her feet.
Shacking Up is an enjoyable story. The characters of this book are fun and quite entertaining as well. The narration as a whole was well done.
