4.0

This story is narrated in partially duet and dual POV by Faye Adele, Shane East, Will Watt, and John York

This is a fun, heartfelt, and red-hot romance perfect for fans of fake dating and reverse harem stories.
And honestly my favorite book of Lily in this series.

We follows Layla, a lingerie designer, and her three charming (obviously drop dead gorgeous) neighbors—Josh, Zack, and Luke—as they embark on a fake dating experiment that turns into much more. 

With humor, spice, and heart, the story explores themes of love, self-worth, and overcoming past trauma.

Tropes:
- why choose FMMM
- friends to lovers
- fake dating 
- third act breakup (but it’s valid to me this time)
- spice 🌶️🌶️🌶️🌶️/5
