Rating: 4.5/5 stars

Mackenzie needs someone to pretend to be her boyfriend, and Noah needs someone to pretend to be his mate. Real feelings ensue when the two (who are also omega and alpha shifters, respectively) begin a “fake” relationship.

This was my first time reading paranormal/shifter romance and it DEFINITELY delivered. The Fake Mate was so spicy and fun but also so heartfelt and adorable. It’s also basically Grey’s Anatomy but with werewolves, and honestly that would have been the only information I needed in order to be obsessed with it.

Lana Ferguson is quickly becoming an auto-buy author, and I think all fans of romance will have a fun time with this book, whether it’s your first shifter rom-com or one of many.

Recommended to anyone, but especially if you like: he falls first; fake dating; Grey’s Anatomy

CW: abandonment
