The estranged son of a famous rock legend, Luc occasionally finds himself in the tabloids. After an unfortunate photo effects his reputation at work, he needs to prove that he can clean up his act and settle down with a responsible man. Enter fake boyfriend Oliver. Both agreeing that a fake relationship would be beneficial for their own reasons. But even though the relationship is just for appearances, things begin to feel very real, very fast.
Why is fake-dating just like, the cutest romance trope out there? It never gets old and this was no exception. Luc and Oliver were adorable and I thought they balanced each other so well.
Luc was a loveable and relatable human disaster and I was super impressed by his growth in the story. I wish we got to see more of that from Oliver too (I'm totally smitten with Oliver, I just wish we got to know him a bit earlier).
I want to be a part of Luc's friend group - they sound fab, if not a tad over the top. They, along with the various high society characters, tended to take me out of the story a bit. It as like they were all mostly caricatures of themselves. A character can just be posh - you don't need to constantly remind me what they are by over-exaggerating.
Thank you to NetGalley and Sourcebooks Casablanca for the chance to read this book in exchange for an honest review!
