I think this is my favorite Kate O'Keeffe story I have read so far!

- Exuberantly "helpful" parents
- Museums and obscure artifacts
- Work crush
- Unexpected love
- "His Honourable Hotness"
- "Secret Squirrel Rules"
- Twitter, twotty, twertty

I love that O'Keeffe's main character loves a small, obscure museum. That's how I feel about a local museum in my neck of the woods. And she has a close friend/roommate group of girls which I always love in a series.

You can read Never Fall for Your Fake Fiancé as a standalone. The other girls mentioned in the book have their own stories, which you can jump into any time. If you like reading books in order, start with book 01, Never Fall for Your Back-Up Guy.

Thank you for the eArc, Kate!
All opinions are my own.

This was a cute fake relationship romantic comedy. I liked the flow of the story and the characters. James and Lottie were a cute couple and I liked their story.

I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review.

I listened to this as a feee audiobook on Scribd. It is the third book in a series, but it can be read as a stand alone. This book sounded like a cute “fake lovers” trope and I had a 15 hour road trip ahead of me, so I gave it a try. I spent the whole book trying to find the connection between Lottie and James. In addition of being sick of hearing a character utter “falling for my fake fiancé” over and over, i just could not see the connection. Maybe it was because the author just didn’t give it to us! We learned too much of Lottie’s fascination over her coworker, Matt, and her reasons for loving him that when she finally realized she loved James, I was left wondering WHY! James is a wonderful character but the author spent the entire book until the last 6-7 chapters not showing any love connection between the two at all. It’s okay. I wouldn’t have paid for this book, that’s for sure. Also, I just did not enjoy the narrator’s voice and what I assumed to be her fake British accent.

Reader’s Notes:
- this is book 3 of a series but you do not need to read the other books in order to understand/enjoy this one
- this takes place in London (so for us who don’t know different British slang/sayings, we will be a little confused by some things that they say BUT it is not something that impacts understanding what is going on in the story)
-there is some innuendo/suggestive comments

Review:
I really enjoyed this story! I liked how you could tell James was likely falling first (not that Lottie caught on) and how both James and Lottie interacted with each other. They had lovely banter and both enjoyed James’ jokes/puns that he came up with for the dentures! The dress scenes anyone?
