5.0
This is such an amazing fake-dating romantic comedy with beautiful emotional growth plot lines surrounding GAD and toxic relationships, with a fantastically written romance and truly fun sex scenes. The representation in this book also feels so seamless and natural and non-fetishized, and contributes really well to the development of the characters’ incredibly engaging personalities. Read this if you want an amazing romantic comedy with a brilliant, funny, confident-and-insecure, emotionally-closed-off-but-growing, practicing witch, PhD candidate, tenure-track professor, bisexual, Black woman lead and her romantic, ex-pro rugby player, Muslim, Pakistani, emotionally-working-on-himself, non-profit running, family-loving “fake” boyfriend!
