A little cheesy, but I can’t resist a steamy fake dating romance where the MMC is all in from the start! Very easy to read and low angst. Enemies needed more of a slap down though.

[a:Maggie Rawdon|22664570|Maggie Rawdon|https://images.gr-assets.com/authors/1663833379p2/22664570.jpg] writes the best starts for her series! and with this new team she has won my heart even more, Harper & Alex were unexpectedly sweet and sensual, funny, with ever present chemistry and a love story that does justice to both characters. Also, at times it gives me something like a little extended epilogue for Ben & Violet and Mac & Way.
In the prequel, Harper is the typical good girl who avoids trouble, which is why she rejects Alex's proposal, and although in Pick Six is still a kind and good-hearted woman, she also has her heart and trust hurt by her failed marriage to Drew, she knows VERY well what she wants, what she deserves and I loved that Maggie show the sensual, flirtatious, determined and fun side of this girl who is one of the most interesting heroines I have ever read: with her efforts to save the museum, other people's work and especially in the moments when he confronts Drew so intelligently. I also really liked reading about her friendship with Violet, the way she fits into Alexander's inner circle, and that bond that begins to form when Joss makes her appearance.
I must say that I liked Alex in that first meeting with Harper, but it was reading him in this book when I really fell in love with him! I really liked that he's so sweet, tender and that he really cares about Harper's well-being, also, I LOVE that he is always clear with what he wants from her, with his feelings and makes all of this known to her and Drew too, and even though I don't entirely like his explosive and aggressive side, I really liked his character, his story as a bad boy / womanizer reformed, and everything about his relationship with his dad.
Harper & Alex experience an immediate attraction and chemistry that they cannot explore when they meet because Harper tries to protect herself from Alex's notoriety, and because of things of fate Harper ends up marrying Drew, Alexander's best friend, however, that marriage didn't work and thanks to Alex's temper, he and Harper are forced to fake a relationship for the media to save their careers.. Which gives Alex the second chance he always wanted, helps him show Harper who he really is, and shows us the cutest, funniest, and most sensual moments this couple is capable of! Without a doubt, a VERY GOOD start to this series and one more book by Maggie to my favorites list.
