Butterface
by Avery Flynn
After reading Tomboy a few months ago I couldn’t wait to go back and read the rest of the books in the series. I love Avery Flynn’s writing style so much and I am so glad to have found a new author to read. Butterface is the story between Ford and Gina, a cop and a wedding planner who has ties to the mob.
I love a great fake relationship trope and Flynn writes this one perfectly. Ford is on assignment and of course it is forbidden that he even remotely pursues a relationship with Gina, but that’s when the lines start to get blurry and the fake relationship turns from friendship to something more.
Flynn writes Gina’s character so perfectly. At some point in our lives we were in Gina’s shoes. And maybe we weren’t called “butterface,” but we had insecurities and vulnerabilities that cut us too. Gina is such a fierce and independent woman, but being loved by someone so perfect as Ford is just too good to be true in her opinion. Gina has to get past the fact that Ford really likes her for who she is and not because of any ulterior motives he may have. Trust is fragile and the bond that these two have is so important because without trust the foundation of any relationship just crumbles.
I really enjoyed reading this book - it had me crying on more than one occasion. I loved Ford’s huge family and even Gina’s mob-boss brothers were great. So happy to have found a great series to read!
