The Lie by Karla Sorensen

4.0

Dominic, an American Football player with a bad attitude and a history of impulse problems, finds himself in trouble on his first day at his new team. His punishment is to volunteer with a charity for kids organised by the owner of the teams stepdaughter Faith. Immediately the two clash and Dominic decides he despises her sunshine attitude but feelings soon begin to change when he realises that she may be the only person who can ever truly understand and accept his grumpy ways.

Tropes:
Grumpy/Sunshine
Insta love ish
A brief enemies to lovers phase
The “we’ve been emailing each other under different names for years and didn’t know” trope
Forced Proximity

I loved this. It’s no secret that any book that promises a Grumpy/Sunshine trope will immediately take priority on my tbr and this did not disappoint. Once Dominic realised Faith was it for him he did not hesitate to pursue her. The dates he came up with were so sweet and romantic it made my heart melt.

If you want a low angst, emotional, romance book with a great story and a tiny bit of spice please read this!
