I didn't expect to enjoy this book as much as I did! 
I loved the chemistry between the characters, their relationship felt natural and comfortable, which is the best thing to read in a rom-com novel. The plot wasn't my favorite — the situations they found themselves in
(particularly the sunscreen scene? Her sitting on his lap at the talk??)
felt a little unbelievable to me, I can only suspend my disbelief so much — but the characterization made up for any shortfalls elsewhere. As far as fake dating goes, this is one of the better ones. They're just... hanging out. Developing feeling. They were less concerned with the show and were enjoying each others company, which I appreciated.
