This was really really good.

I liked how we had a heroine who has a job that’s typically not written about and wears glasses that’s not a librarian.

It was very light angst, but when it did get to the angst… you felt it.

I love seeing the progression of their feelings, because everyone knows how a fake dating relationship goes but this one just felt more emotional. 

I felt more connected to their relationship than other fake dating relationships I’ve read.

I am super glad that I got a special edition of this book because I will be rereading this!

I really enjoyed this book. It kind of reminded me of The Deal but a bit different. Clay is now a standard. He was so sweet and j absolutely loved how both of them had their own internal issues. I could definitely relate to both of them. Also I love how a found family trope is growing in the series.
