AMY! You’ve done it again! This book was everything I wanted in a dirty talking brother’s best friend, fake relationship, friends to lovers, small town romantic comedy!

Sawyer and Olivia are perfect together!! Sawyer’s funny, sexy, yet quiet, nerd with a filthy mouth I was not expecting! Liv is sassy, independent, strong-willed, and exactly what I want in an FMC!

This book was hilarious, there was cringe-worthy content, and I was swooning for Sawyer! I’m in love with these characters and I can’t wait to see where Amy goes with this series!!!

Rating: 5/5 ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

People should read Amy Alves more often, and that's just plain fact. She never fails to write stories that are captivating, steamy, heart-warming, and fun.

Falling For the Bachelor was no exception. I read most of it with a smile on my face and LOLed just enough times for people around me to look at me funny.

The thing I love the most about Ms. Alves's writing is her heroines. They're always highly entertaining, strong even when feeling/seeming weak, and they're soooo relatable. Liv was all of these things, and I'd want to be her BFF were she a real person.

As far as Sawyer goes... Let me start by saying that I'm usually not into good guys. Give me a bad boy at any hour of day. But, man... Sawyer was a dream! He was sweet and caring. Funny and awkward. And then he was hot and dominant where I wasn't expecting it, setting my skin on

Sawyer Fletcher, a kindhearted veterinarian, is considered to be one of the town’s most eligible bachelors. Because the Landry League doesn’t know how to mind their own business, Sawyer has been volunteered to be the “Hometown Hottie” on LoveVine, a Bachelor inspired event that Landry is cohosting with a neighboring town called Vaughn. Participating on LoveVine is the last thing Sawyer wants to do, but as they’re donating to his favorite charity, he really has no choice.

That’s where Olivia Vaughn comes in. Beautiful, smart, and witty, Liv is freshly divorced and has recently moved back to Vaughn. If she applies as a fake contestant, all of Sawyer’s troubles are over. The only problem? Sawyer is hopelessly, desperately attracted to Liv, a side of himself he never explored because she was his best friend’s little sister. Everything between him and Liv is supposed to be fake, but his feelings have become very real…

Oh. My. Gosh. Amy Alves has done it again, and with a brand new spin-off series too!!! Sawyer and Liv’s love story was everything I didn’t know I needed. And this swoony and spicy small town romance checked all my boxes and more! It was so fun to go back to the world of Landry, which has now expanded into Vaughn with this story as well. The League’s shenanigans were hilarious as always, and I loved watching them give all their efforts to the LoveVine show! I also loved the side characters, some new, and some who are familiar to those who’ve read the Landry Love series.

Let’s talk about Sawyer. This man, I swear!!! Half the time I wanted to smother him in hugs, and the other half the time I wanted to slap him upside the head. He’s so sweet and kind, and I truly believe his heart is in the right place. I just think he was a little jaded after so many bad dates. And luckily for him, his luck finally changes with Liv. She was one of the best heroines I’ve read about in a while, I loved her sass and smart aleck comebacks. I think she’s super sweet and that after going through such an awful divorce, a little happiness is exactly what she needed. I highly recommend!

I liked this cute story of a bachelor that didn’t want to be forced into doing a game show but was by the town and his own mother. It was funny and cute!
