"I am your happily ever after."
"You're here, I am; sorry it took me so long."

Iris Kelly Doesn't Date by Ashley Blake is the third book in the Bright Falls series and my most anticipated book in the series! I was screaming when I read that Iris Kelly doesn't date was a fake dating scheme! I love fake dating tropes; they are so messy and fun! I knew after reading the first two books I was going to love Iris Kelly as a character, and I was incredibly excited to pick up the third book in this series! 

Iris Kelly isn't interested in love or relationships (so she says), and Stevie is looking for a way to get over her ex and their long-term relationship! When an attempt at a one-night stand goes disastrous, Stevie tells a little white lie, and Iris decides to play along! Ashley Blake has a great way of righting these couples who seem like they shouldn't fit together but making you route for them to fall in love! 

I wanted more interactions with Iris and her friend group and for them to be more active in what was going on. However, I was obsessed with Iris and Stevie; I loved the spicy scenes and the big romantic gestures! I loved this book and am sad to see this series ending. You can pick this book up without reading the first two books (which I love)! But if you liked the first two books, this book will satisfy everything for you, which may be the new favorite in the series.
