So not only was this a daft and dull start, but it also kind of pissed me off. Ugh okay got a little fuming there with feminism. I don’t care if they’re attractive or anything else, if I’m not looking for that it’s not happening. It’s literally just him walking up to her in the hallway one day when he hears someone asking her who she’s dating (which she lied about in a fit of pride) and is like “It’s me!” Now remember that she didn’t ask for this, he just comes up and touches her intimately and I believe then kisses her and I know that’s meant to be romantic and all but imagine some guy just walks up to you and kisses you like EXCUSE ME NOPE. ► View spoilers about how they start fake-dating and why it actually kind of also pissed me off I guess this is a mild spoiler so I’ll lock it, but if you don’t read the spoiler just know it’s very bland and uninteresting to start the premise of the story. The entry point in this book was especially bad. While I often love a fake dating trope, the entry point into it almost always requires me to suspend some serious disbelief, because the whole premise is so colossally stupid and unthought out and obviously doomed to fail.
What I do remember about this is being pretty skeptical early on of the way they start their fake-dating ruse. Honestly though, that to me is usually all the review I need: if I don’t remember anything about it six months later, it probably wasn’t that great. I’ll keep this one short, because I didn’t take great notes and I don’t remember it well. Well it’s been almost six months since I finished this in June, which isn’t great as far as review-writing-memory goes. When the line between real and pretend begins to blur, they are forced to answer the question: is this fake romance the realest thing in either of their lives? But with Becca still picking up the pieces from when her world was blown apart years ago and Brett just barely holding his together now, they begin to realize they have more in common than they ever could have imagined. It’s the perfect solution: he gets people off his back for not dating and she can keep up the ruse.Īcting like the perfect couple isn’t easy though, especially when you barely know the other person.
When he overhears Becca’s lie, Brett decides to step in and be her mystery guy. Being captain of the football team and one of the most popular guys in school, he should have no problem finding someone to date, but he’s always been more focused on his future than who to bring to prom. But when her former best friend teases her for not having a boyfriend, Becca impulsively pretends she’s been secretly seeing someone.īrett Wells has it all. It’s been years since seventeen-year-old Becca Hart believed in true love.
