⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ (Rating System Below)

Honestly I’m Totally Faking It by Amanda Gambill is an absolute must-read for anyone who loves a fun, spicy, and utterly relatable romantic comedy. Rach, the main character, is a charming disaster, and I couldn’t get enough of her cringe-worthy moments. Her awkwardness, especially with her ex, felt so real and true to life, making her all the more endearing. The humor is spot-on, and her chaotic life is hilariously entertaining, especially when she stumbles into viral fame and an unexpected connection with the aloof, aspiring politician, Pres.

The chemistry between Rach and Pres is undeniable, and the story does an incredible job balancing laugh-out-loud moments with sizzling romance. Scenes like the bar nicknames and the horoscope bit had me grinning ear to ear, while the slow-build tension between them took the heat up several notches. The “fake dating” trope is executed to perfection here, with plenty of steamy surprises along the way.

I couldn’t put this book down and wholeheartedly recommend it to anyone looking for a spicy, feel-good romance with a dash of awkward charm. It’s the perfect blend of humor, heart, and heat, making it a true standout in the genre.
