What happens when a one night stand from 9 years ago becomes your fake boyfriend?

Puck Me Twice is an amazingly fun, sweet book that I couldn’t help but fall in love with. I mean seriously… a neurodivergent, cinnamon roll that is head over heels for the girl he hasn’t forgotten in 9 years and a fun FMC that suddenly needs a fake boyfriend and who happens to be standing there? Pure romance gold. 

Sven and Vanessa were so entertaining, and I loved how their story played out from beginning to end. 

I love the way Lasky writes her characters and stories. The relatability of their feelings, circumstances, and insecurities brings a sense of sameness to the reader, which makes it so easy to get invested. I love books with characters who face issues that are relatable on a personal level and both Sven and Vanessa hit the mark for me. 

Come join the Boston Grizzlies and one very quirky book club for a story that will warm your heart.
