It's Not All Fake
What could be so hard about unlocking the heart of a Hollywood big shot? It’s my job, after all—I’m his life coach.
Liam Wright is my biggest headache—err, client—yet.
Sure, his mom forced him into it, worried he’ll never settle down.
But I was all set to find him true love.
Problem is, Liam isn’t buying what I’m selling. Not even a little.
He’d rather flip the script.
Now, he’s paying me to pose as his girlfriend, a performance to keep his mom happy.
Yep, we’re knee-deep in mommy issues.
And I’m just his prop.
But soon, every staged kiss starts to feel alarmingly real.
Are we just playing our parts too well?
Because if his touches are all fake, then he deserves an Oscar.
A love story with heart and heat! Open-door contemporary romance (4/5 🌶️—sweet moments? Plenty! Fade-to-black? Nope.) Includes emotionally intense themes and danger elements—but rest assured, love wins and they get their happily ever after!

Pretty Woman with a Therapist
How a billionaire treats his mother is the best indicator of how he will treat his wife.
Well drawn, interesting characters with a fun set-up. $10 million to be his fake girlfriend. Of course, they both fall. Great ending
nits:
Inextricably misused
Ousted misused
Tense slip knew -> know
Party goer is one word
Missing open quote before Um
Missing question mark after What the hell
Ch 8: sexy used 3x more than the rest of the book combined. Find alternatives
Don’t use each person’s name 3 times a page in dialog
Too many paragraphs start with I or the other person’s name. Vary sentence structure.
Use more contractions for better flow

This book is pure guilty pleasure!
Liam, a stubborn billionaire, gets stuck with a life coach (ugh, I know) but Chloe is anything but boring. Their fake-dating agreement takes a HOT turn, and let me tell you, the chemistry sizzles! I wasn't sure if it was just Liam or Chloe's "mind tricks," but man, oh man, did they make me want to fan myself!
If you're looking for a quick, steamy romance with a bit of humor, then "It's Not All Fake" definitely delivers!

Started strong
This book is about a life coach and a wealthy guy who seems to be living a life that is lacking. The book started strong, as the two main characters started getting to know each other. Little by little, more details about the two come out, some interesting, some thrown in without having the significance explained. The last 25% of the book dragged for me so I ended up skimming it. Wish the whole book would have been as good as the first half.

cute fake dating romance
Life coach meets billionaire results in a cute story with a zany cast of characters. Not a lot of steam despite there being several sex scenes. And the cyber representation wasn’t quite right - but, srsly, an A for effort and even trying.
Definitely over the top romance, tho, so if you’re looking to swoon at all the HEA like feels, definitely snag this dopamine hit.

it’s not all fake
Good story. Lots of sex in the middle of it. I wish the characters were more open with each other: that she’d have asked where they were in the relationship. If he’d been more in tune with his own feelings and desires, it would have been a different story!

Amazing story
I loved this story. The chemistry and emotional depth to the characters was so honest and I could feel everything they felt. If you want a romance novel with incredible depth, this would be it.

Good read
Seeing how Chloe and Liam dealt with the issues from their past was really heat warming. Love always triumphs over the ways of evil.
