THIS WAS SO CUTE!!! 

I'm literally still ghussing over Violet and Reed but I felt like I was back in middle school reading a Wattpad book! 

This is a clean high school romance about the new girl in town dating her schools hockey captian -- after finding him conoodling with someone else she finds herself making a deal with the rival hockey captian of the neighboring town to fake date!!! 

I live laugh love a fake Dating romance and they were just so cute! Reed was way head over heels for our FMC and I love when the guy is ghussing over our girl 😍😍 

The only reason it's a 4.5 and not a 5 stars is because I HATE THE WAY VIOLET LET HER FEARS RUN HER LIFE!! girl I get it, you're in high school so you're a little stupid but also... This guy has shown you who he is!!! You're gonna believe someone else???? 

Anyway, I highly recommend!! I will definitely be picking up the next one!

Took a break and went back to YA. IDK this just felt very insta-lovey to me especially on Reed's part and lowkey cringe when they were talking about Reed's "dark" reputation like ehhhhhh it just felt immature and very cliche but it was ayt. I still finished it quite quick but honestly, I think it's more because there wasn't a lot of things going on. Reed was just always like I LOVE HER! then Violet was always like I WONDER IF HE'S ACTUALLY A BAD GUY! yafeel it was ehhh would probably not read again.
