Ok I thought I knew the direction this book and series was gonna go UMMM APPARENTLY NOT. I may actually have to read the next book.

I would like to know what early 20 year old drinks scotch and likes it. The heck.

Ok ok…I know I saw this romance coming from a mile away…but they do have some hilarious moments.

This whole having him act as her fiancé is crazy and stupid. Like…NO ONE would recognize him from the front?! NO ONE would realize IMMEDIATELY he ISNT their PREVIOUS CLASSMATE? Yeah…this is absolutely a young adult novel and they are for sure in their early 20s 😑 COME UP WITH A BETTER PLAN!? HELLO??

While I am enjoying this book so far, I fear I can kinda see where this is going. Interesting read so far though. I am a bit disappointed that it is not a standalone.

“Wheaten ponytail” feels awkward on the tongue.

Ooo a dual POV yay.
