💘 Book Review: Forty, Flirty & Fake-ly Yours by Lacey Monroe
Fake dating? ✔️
Geeky billionaire? ✔️
Sentimental matchmaker? ✔️
Steamy chaos? Oh yes. 😍

Grayson created a dating app to make love logical. Rosalind just needed new clients. One accidental wine spill later... and they're fake dating. What could go wrong?

This book is full of fun banter, geeky charm, and heart-fluttering moments. I loved the quirky matches from the app and the family dinner scene stole my heart. 🥰

✨ Tropes: Fake dating, opposites attract
💬 Vibes: Flirty, fun, feel-good

If you love steamy romance with heart and humor—don’t skip this one!

Agh! I really was hoping I’d like this book especially since it is about people in their forties, but I did not finish the book.
First there were way too many characters! I should not have to look back to review who-is-who and their connection.
Also, the attempt to bring humor to the book with Dani’s matches, (the clown and bag piper) were just plain stupid. I found a similar attempt at this type of humor in her other book and also thought it was ridiculous and unnecessary.

While this was a funny read, by the last third of the book I was starting to feel anxious just because there was no break from the constant interruptions from electronic devices carried by the characters. Doesn't anyone under the age of 55 know how to temper their use of devices? If you would put the smart phones and smart watches away when you leave the office and enjoy at least one day a week without electronic interference, you would be happier and less anxiety ridden people.

Great chemistry

Book’s main characters were in competing dating businesses. Their chemistry was magnetic. The side characters’ antics were too silly for me. Especially considering this was a nook of 40 somethings
