This book was a rom com with a few really funny moments. I enjoyed watching the improv between the main characters as they fake their relationship. There were some great moments of banter. It's a little hallmarky in it's premise and nearly exactly what you expect happens, but I found myself enjoying the book. 

My main criticism is that it was too long. I felt like the enemies to lovers trope didn't really make sense here. Lottie was ridiculously grumpy and hostile towards Huxley (I hate his name so goddamn much), and it made no sense because he literally changed her life by covering looming expenses and giving her a place to stay. Sometimes she was really funny but sometimes her immaturity was exhausting. She doesn't have much relationship experience, so I can understand why she would handle conflict with Huxley badly, but also this is a super perfect man who doesn't make too many crazy mistakes so what does she expect? Some of the spicy parts were fun but I felt like the entire last third of the book was basically just spice and it got a little repetitive. Some people love that stuff so it's fine. 

I do wish that Hoxley wasn't a stereotypical book billionaire. It feels pretty unbelievable that this guy and his brothers are perfect, kind, rich, single, super ripped without spending much time in the gym, and seem to have a lot of free time. 

This feels like a lot of complaining for a 4/5 star book. I enjoyed the journey but I tend to appreciate when my romance books feel a little more realistic or have conflict that's triggered by something other than poor communication. This book was funny and lighthearted but lacks any deep meaning or lessons. It's a junk food kind of book and there's nothing wrong with that.

This is an extremely explicit book. Hate the colorful book cover.

It’s a very cute book! Fake engagement to the max! However, sometimes the writing made it a little obvious that the writer is on the newer side
