5.0

I can proudly say this is probably one of my favorite books of 2023.

Clay is the best safety NBU has ever seen and Giana is the PR coordinator of the Rebels, and they fall into a fake dating scheme to mutually benefit their separate love lives - Giana wanting to date a hot musician from school and Clay wanting to get his ex back. But as they learn more about each other, the lines between fake and real begin to blur. 

This book is everything to me. Giana is a great self-insert character for the nerdy bookworms in the world who want a gorgeous athlete to sweep them off their feet and Clay is THE book boyfriend (he literally reads her smutty romance books to learn what she likes.) 

This was probably my quickest read this year and I wouldn’t be surprised if I reread this before the year is over. Clay and G will probably haunt my brain forever and I’m grateful for it.
