This book has a very interesting premise that is executed well: A workaholic bodyguard finds herself against her will in a fake dating work assignment that soon begins to blur the emotional lines of faking, meanwhile there is a threat constantly in the background waiting to emerge and her personal life going through a turmoil that makes the situation even messier. This is a sweet romance read with touches on heavier topics of grief and self-doubt stirring the pot.

this book was SO good i literally couldn’t put it down. i read the entire thing in one sitting. theres no spice so if thats a thing for you then this is the perfect book. but if you like books with spice, read this one anyway its worth it. i love it so much jack is so lovable and hannah is such a mood.
