This is a cute, spicy read with nerdy and lovable characters. John is a serious and artistic introvert, while Celeste is an outrageously ambitious educator. Fake dating and birdwatching don’t seem related, but this book manages to combine them in the best way. When John’s yearly birdwatching — or “birding,” as he informs Celeste is the correct term — contest comes around, he and his usual partner, his glamorous ex, have broken up. When John’s friend Chris meets the recently divorced and newly adventurous Celeste at a local event and informs her of the situation, she’s all in — but from there, misunderstandings abound. This novel was cozy and adorable. A little too corny for me at times, but I’m new to romance. Overall a great read.
