Status Updates From Fake-Off with Fate (Love in...

I think I *may* have made it 15% of the way into this book. Then an attorney calls the small-town mayor's office (where the mayor's daughter is involved in an elaborate ruse to do his job without anyone knowing he's out of town) to inform him that land donated by way back when should actually be owned by a real estate developer claiming to be the rightful heir.

Listen, I can only suspend disbelief so much.

📖Bonus Epilogue📖

It’s only been a year and a half???!!!
You’re telling me we got robbed of the proposal and of BOTH weddings???!!! They got married in Barbados in nod of the hurricane that made her stay in Maple Falls lmfao!
Ashlyn is pregnant with twins! And she’s now the mayor??!!
Jamie jinxed it! Something is definitely gonna happen to Maple Falls again!

📖Epilogue📖

See!! That’s not even really seeing them together! I still like the Thanksgiving dinner though! It was nice to have Dale and Shirley May.
Maple Falls is now saved! Victor MacDonald actually left a time capsule on his love for Maple Falls! Alexander MacDonald isn’t the person we thought! So when he learned that, he left the town alone and decided to spend part of the year there.

📖Chapter 37📖

Ok ok! This is all so fucking cute, happy and all! Butttt!! What do you mean they only start something on the last chapter??? You’re telling me we’ll only get a brief glimpse of them actually together in the epilogue only?? I need to see more of them dating!!!

📖Chapter 36📖

Are the guys we saw being auctioned will get their own book?? Because yasss!!! I want that!!!
Can we talk about Jackson making his mom and sister bid him for a lot of money so they’ll be able to negotiate more money for him next year? Genius!
Yasss Clément!!! I fucking love that he bid for a date with himself!
Dayang! Ashlyn won a date with Jamie for $30k!

📖Chapter 35📖

Wait! Does Alexander MacDonald’s actually exist??? It’s most certainly not the case but what if all of this was a ploy to make Ashlyn realize she’s needs to become mayor???
Something more probable is that Phillip have something to do with it?
Thank you so much Este for making Ashlyn realize she’s making a mistake!

📖Chapter 34📖

It hurts seeing Ashlyn push Jamie away! Like come back and be with him already!!!
What in the hell is Allegra doing here?!! Is she planning something or what??

📖Chapter 33📖

Not Phillip calling the police seriously thinking Ashlyn did something to her parents!!
I love how supportive her dad is! Telling her how amazing she is!
I hope Ashlyn is finally realizing she can’t leave Jamie like that!!!

📖Chapter 32📖

Are you serious with me right now???!!! Ashlyn is not coming back?? After everything?? I know her father is the mayor so he’ll be the one to take care of it. But she was so involved on it! So why not be there to help! I hate that she’s leaving Jamie like that!!!

📖Chapter 31📖

They’re both sleeping at her parents house!!! And he slept shirtless!! He immediately wanted to go to LA with her!!!
Jamie fucking kissed her omfg!!! I can’t wait for them to make out!!!
I have a feeling Jamie is for something with Zach being at the airport and wanting to help Maple Falls!

📖Chapter 30📖

Dang Jamie! 16 bears!!
Omfg!!!! He’s ready to move to LA for her??? And they aren’t even together!!!

📖Chapter 29📖

Ooohhh so Ashlyn’s house is gonna be destroyed by the fire or something? So she’ll need to stay in Maple Falls longer??
Jamie is so adorable! I love that he expresses his fear to Ashlyn!

📖Chapter 28📖

“Then you should write me a check for two and a half million so I can get Alexander MacDonald off our backs.” “If I had that kind of spare cash, I’d do it,” AKJAAJKAIAKA

Jamie is so down bad for her!!!!

📖Chapter 27📖

Phillip is so damn annoying but I feel like there’s gonna be something more to his character.
It was mean of Ashlyn to use Phillip’s terror of snakes!
They’re both craving for it, so can they both just date already???!!!!

📖Chapter 26📖

I’m so proud of Jamie!!! He was mature and respectful toward Allegra but still firm! My man really doesn’t wants her back, he doesn’t even have one ounce of doubts! He’s all about Ashlyn and I fucking adore that!
I love seeing him adapting himself to the town and the bears!

📖Chapter 25📖

Ashlyn honey! DONT fucking piss me off!! Why are you trying to push Jamie to Allegra?? I don’t care if you’re scared of your feelings! Why are you pushing him to her after what she did?? Thankfully Jamie is not taking the bait!
I love Jamie’s view on fate! He’s so husband material!!!

📖Chapter 24📖

Jamie is gonna attract more bears by giving food to papa bear!
The fucking audacity of Allegra to call and kinda try to have him back after everything she did to him! He fucking proposed twice! That should’ve been a sign!
It’s so funny to me that Peggy told Jamie she doesn’t like Hockey lmfao!
That’s why I personally couldn’t do small town! Everyone knows everything about everyone!

📖Chapter 23📖

The man that Jamie Hayes is!! Ashlyn called him crying and he immediately wanted to come to her! Are you kidding me?? Get me someone like him asap!! And he asked her if she’s able to drive wanting to pick her up! And getting her fish and chips too!! She should marry that man on the damn spot!!!

📖Chapter 22📖

They’re so damn cuuuuutteeee!!! I LOVE THEM!!!
I loved that they went house hunting together!! But I kinda want to see his relationship with the bears grow!

📖Chapter 21📖

At the beginning of the letter, it said October 13th and then they told the citizens to come to the meeting held on October 3rd???? So like, which one is it???
I mean… Phillips phobia of snakes is very valid!!!
Not Ashlyn chasing Phillip away with a fart machine!!!

📖Chapter 20📖

Mrs. Fishman is giving predator behavior! Why is she looking at Jamie like that???!!
Yes sure Jamie! You just want to be her friend!
I love reading about Jamie and the bears lmfao! And his girly scream!

📖Chapter 19📖

Ashlyn honey, I also want you to kiss him again so please do!
Not Mrs. Fishman’s being all excited about the auction!!
Ashlyn did pretty great on the meeting!

📖Chapter 18📖

Omfg! She agreed to be his fake girlfriend!!!!
He fucking bought her flowers to thank her!! That’s so fucking cute!! And she gave him a peck!!! I can’t!!! I love them!!
