Fake it till you make it!
This was a short, fast enjoyable read about two people, Cara and Millsy, who are not quite feeling love anymore. They are a social pair, and their social calendar is booked. What to do???? How about putting on a show so that everyone thinks they are as madly in love as ever. Once they get through the holidays, then they can cope with the breakup. Simple right???
As I mentioned this was a fast read that had the tropes of fake dating, miscommunication, and second chance romance. As other reviewers have stated this is the sequel to The Plus One Pact which I have not read. I really wish that would have been made clear. I believe I would have enjoyed this book more had I read that book. I am sure knowing their backstory would have helped me have a better connection to them and their relationship.
For me this was well written and enjoyable. I just wanted a little more oomph and the ending felt rushed. I have read a lot of fake dating books and books that have a lot of miscommunications in them. I get frustrated by this as I want to tell both characters to grow up and talk already.
There are some fun moments and lots of holiday cheer.
Thank you to Boldwood Books and NetGalley who provided me with a copy of this book in exchange for an honest review. All the thoughts and opinions are my own.
