So yes this is all a fantastic series. Rae and Zach were such an adorable couple and yes, even though it took time for them, I'm so glad that they found each other through their realizations and then made themselves into a "we" situation.

They were such a fantastic couple and their fake dating, I knew that it was as real as it could ever be. Four fantastic stars to the Ravenswood series and to book three: That Kind of Guy by Talia Hibbert!

i just love going back and diving into the backlist by authors I love just to see how good they already were, but also how much they improved too!

i adored everything about these two, and got a little bit emotional in the acknowledgments part with talia promoting get a life, chloe brown because just seeing where she started and how big the brown sisters trilogy have become is amazing.

I had a great time
things i liked:
- demi rep slayed
- i was so overwhelemed with emotion over some of the things they said to each other/sentiments
- i liked that the "third act breakup" felt very real to me and like wasn't prolonged unnecessarily
- im a slut for a plot like this
things that were meh:
- not all of the smut worked for me 
- i think some of the stuff could've been developed more - particularly on Rae's end (ie Rae's relationship with her mother)

5.5/10, I love Talia but this one seemed a little flat.

Friends to lovers/fake relationship.
Rae is an author who has to go to an awards ceremony where her dirtbag ex will certainly be. She asks her friend Zach to go as her fake boyfriend and he agrees. These characters had a lot of depth and I learned something about demisexuality. It was maybe my favorite Talia Hibbert yet but I think I say that about almost all of her books?

The whole series is not great but amazing.  This one, book #3 is my favorite in the series and I have absolutely zero regrets about it. You don’t have to read books #1, #1.5, and #2, but they are also wonderful romances. 
But this one…
Rae is 40, divorced, she’s a fantasy author… She’s struggling after a messy divorce and she’s making friends in Ravenswood. She’s good friends with
Zach. He’s 28. When the hero is younger that is catnip for me, that is my quart of cappuccino crunch ice cream that I eat with a spoon 🥄 all by myself. He’s demisexual and IMHO he’s so well portrayed and his identity so well represented. His representation is the golden nugget of this book for me but the romance is still swoony and steamy and super romantic. 
Hey and the heroine who’s an author has a dog, and his name is Duke because of course he’s named Duke.
