It was a light fun read! The couple had a lot of chemistry and it was a perfect book to turn my brain off!

I hated this book and I don’t know if it’s because I discovered I hate the fake dating trope or because I hated most of the characters in this book. I think the one part of the book that worked for me was the relationship between the two main characters, but it wasn’t enough to salvage everything else. I have taken everything by this author off my to-read list though.

This book was a delight. I love Alexis Hall's sense of humor, and the narrator was very talented. I wish the ending hadn't been quite so abrupt, but knowing there's a sequel, I guess I get it.
