This book was so much better than I was thinking it would be.  Everything was written so nicely.  The characters, the relationships, the drama, the plot, it was all so entertaining and enjoyable.

Fake date to get on a game show then realize you caught feelings?  Love this idea and how it all played out.  It was wholesome, cute, funny, spicy, and just amusing to read.

Holden and Leo have such a great dynamic.  I loved their chemistry and how they helped each other.  Finding each other when life was less than the best.  The self healing was also nice to see.  Holden dealing with the grief of losing his mother and getting rid of his ghost-like mindset, and becoming himself again was written really nicely.  This book was amazing!

Thank you to the author, NetGalley, and HARLEQUIN - Romance,  for this eARC of this book.
