This was such a fun addition to the second season of Franklin U! I love N.R. Walker’s writing, so reading Chase and Amos’s story was a treat.
Chase Soria is a loveable, goofy, flirty golden retriever who’s also an actor, so everything is over the top with him. He’s cute and oblivious in the best ways but has always seen relationships as something he wasn’t interested in. Amos Beddington is quiet, introverted and serious, pretty much the opposite of Chase in almost every way except he’s also an actor. He keeps to himself, works at a cafe near campus and doesn’t love social situations or being the center of attention.
They get paired together for a drama class project where they have to pretend to be long-term boyfriends for a reality TV show on campus, which requires them to get really comfortable with each other really fast. Even though things are supposed to be fake, they start to cross the line really fast, making them both question what’s real and what’s acting. Chase and Amos shouldn’t work together, but they definitely do. If anything, I wanted to get to know them more as characters - this felt a little quick/rushed to me, especially once filming for the show started.
Definitely recommend this FU installment if you’re looking for something fun and sweet to read this summer!
