After a series of short-lived love affairs, Brandy is looking forward to escaping to Bliss Bay for the summer. Imagine her shock, and surprise, when her ex, Justin, unexpectedly shows up - with his new girlfriend! In an attempt to demonstrate she is over him and has moved on, Brandy makes up a fake boyfriend!
With only two weeks to put up or shut up in introducing her “new man” to her friends, Brandy is ready to fess up when a serendipitous meeting leads to her finding a co conspirator. While getting to know her fake bae, Jalen, Brandy catches real feelings. What will happen when her too-good-to-be-true fake relationship is met with an obstacle that could destroy her plan? Will she overcome the obstacle and save face, own her truth and admit she’s super single, or something else?
An exciting read by an author I was introduced through #BRAE. Brandy had some devastating issues she'd encountered with men. Then the accidental slip up that she had a boyfriend and then meeting Jalen. Jalen becomes fake boyfriend to real relationship. Things looked up for Brandy. Brandy's friend, Danielle may be in for an adventure with Andrew. Can't wait to read more about that. This was my first read by the author and definitely not the last. This captured my attention from the start and held it to the last page. Looking forward to reading more of this author's work.
I felt like I knew the characters and that I could gave been friends with them 15 years ago. I loved the female friendships (shoutout to my group chat) in this book!
Fun, quick read about a city girl navigating relationships old and new. The main character felt like an old friend. :) Was rooting for her the whole time!
It was a good short read i just wish it was longer. I needed Brandy and Jalen story to play out more before they became official. Very fast moving story but cute nonetheless.
Honestly, I just wanted to check it out since it's my name. But it was just a quick read, no real plot, and she forgave the guy at the end, even without any real explanation.
