The Great Dating Fake-Off by Livy Hart

4.0

Thank you to Entangled: Amara for my advance electronic copy via NetGalley. My thoughts are my own.

Nora grew up rootless and family-less, except for her mom. So when her only friend needs her to be his pretend-girlfriend for a big family wedding, she steps up. The only problem? The hottie who Nora's crushing hard on is also at the wedding, and also has a pretend-date. So they agree that they will NOT let their respective friends down and will keep their hands--and feelings--off each other. But as they keep being thrown together during the week-long festivities, it gets harder and harder to keep things platonic. Will they be able to help keep their friends' secrets? Or will they let their growing attraction ruin everything?

This one was cute and flirty and was one long story of--well, longing. I liked that this was about family AND found family, and how loyal they each were to their respective friends. It was hard not to be frustrated at the lack of clear communication that got their respective friends into their respective predicaments, but I appreciated the communication being open within the circle of trust at least. This makes a great beachy read with sexy vibes.
