This was such a sweet, cute love story. Genevieve is a social influencer that touts her single girl life. Unfortunately, what she’d really like is to find the one, settle down, and start a family. Finlay falls too hard and too fast, and he has two failed engagements to show for it. Finlay agrees to go to a party with Genevieve as her fake boyfriend for the day, but neither expected to get drunk and get fake engaged – or have it posted live on Genevieve’s social feed.

The two wake up to family and friends wondering what the heck just happened. Didn’t Finlay’s latest engagement JUST end? Hasn’t Genevieve always disliked Finlay? As the couple navigate their predicament, including keeping the lie alive for various reasons, could real feelings be developing?

I loved this couple. They were both so real, and their chemistry was explosive. Their flirting was adorable and the moments of vulnerability was endearing. Each was secretly falling for the other, but too afraid to risk the hurt of finding out if the feelings were reciprocated. I started this book and couldn’t stop reading until I finished it.

If you like sweet stories with wonderful characters, you need to pick this book up now. It’s book 8 in a series, but each book is a standalone and can be read on it’s own. This is the first book I’ve read in the series, but am definitely going back to read others in the series.

I received a complimentary e-copy of this book from Rachel’s Random Resources and Leannan Press. All opinions are my own.
