It's the annual charity auction - FOR THE CHILDREN - and football superstar Cooper is being threatened by a radio personality who could destroy his reputation. He doesn't want to upset her but he definitely doesn't want her to win a date with him. Thankfully, his good friend Violet was able to use his money to win the date for herself. But it looks like their little hometown romance is benefitting them both, so they decide to play it up for a bit.
This book was original as far as these books go as it was entirely narrated by the man. I don't know if I've ever seen a book in this genre do that. That also might have been why everything felt so quick, women are written with so much more self-doubt than he was. I don't even know if he hesitated a second, it was all about his wants rather than hers. Kind of rubbed me the wrong way.
There was no real conflict, no drama, everything just sort of fell into place. It was also like the starting point kept shifting and I found myself wondering why they had never discussed being together in the first place. It was strange and weird pacing. I didn't hate it, it was entertaining enough, but I would have liked to see more depth.
This was a sweet romance with all likable characters.

Malo en mi opinión, el libro es súper corto así que la historia se sintió apurada, ni pude conectar con los personajes plus el libro esta de la punta de vista del tipo siempre lo cual es algo que no pasa mucho y que no me gusto demasiado. La tipa principal no tuvo ni casi screen time y fue más el tipo solo y con sus jugadores. This books is a no in my opinion. Will never read again bye

This was a fun, light-hearted time. Nothing revolutionary or particularly memorable, but certainly a fun audiobook to listen to.

Football player Cooper doesn't really want to participate in the charity bachelor auction, so he arranges for Violet, his best friend's sister, to "buy" him. This ends up with them being mistaken for boyfriend and girlfriend. People see him as more stable with a significant other, and dating a football player is great for business at her hair salon, so they decide to keep up the charade -- until it stops being a charade.
I love a good fake romance novel, and this one is okay. There's minimal conflict with everyone. I kept waiting for the other shoe to drop, but it never did. I think the book would have been more interesting with more conflict. But, on the good side, Cooper and Violet have great chemistry, and their growing relationship is wonderful. I just wish a bit more had happened in the book.
