BLURB
He needs a wife so he can get his inheritance.
I’m up to my eyeballs in debt with a sick father who needs treatment.
When he offers me a million dollars to be his fake wife, am I supposed to say no?

Chad Holdsworth is one of the wealthiest football stars in the country.
We’ve been best friends since birth.
So his shenanigans are nothing new to me.
The idea of getting married should have been easy.

Until he kissed me.

We then forgot we were supposed to be pretending.
And broke all the rules.

I know better than to fall for a playboy.
Even if he is my friend.
But I’m so lost in him I can’t see my way back.
With that panty-melting smile and his bedroom baby blues, he could get a nun in trouble.
What chance do I have of resisting?

If you play with fire, you will get burned.
Loving this man might be a mistake I’m not prepared for.

Great Pretender is a friends to lovers/fake fiancée romance inspired by Park Avenue Player.

MY REVIEW
Piper and Chad have been best friends their whole lives, so when he needs a fake girlfriend to appease his father and the board, she's the one. She just has to remember to keep her heart out of this fakeness, because Chad's been a player (not just an ex football one either) for a long time, and that means he could devastate her if she doesn't keep this as platonically friendly as possible. So what will she do as time winds by and the fake starts feeling very real?

Friends to lovers can be hard to write, hard to read too, if not done well. It runs the risk of the two being so familiar with each other that there's no chemistry and the feelings not being believable. Fortunately, Great Pretender doesn't fall into this trap because Piper and Chad have chemistry in spades. Their relationship was very believable, and I love finding out the unrequited was perhaps not so unrequited. Their chemistry was sizzling, and the way Chad came to his revelation made everything even better. All in all, this is a great part of the Cocky Hero Club.

Review: Waiting for You by Kate McBrien

Review of Waiting for You by Kate McBrien Justin and Lucy are apart, but for how long? Lucy's staying with her parents, but knows she needs to get out and start living her life again. But when she gets a chance to go to London, it just may be her chance to reunite with the man whose soul has been entwined with hers for centuries upon centuries. But first, our two fated lovers will have to not only reunite, but stay together, beat the odds and the people and/or forces who are trying to keep them apart. Waiting for You is a great followup to Discovering You. Justin and Lucy's story is exciting and passionate, and the mystical/fantasy/paranormal aspect just adds another interesting layer to their already wonderful connection. I normally don't read a lot of paranormal/fantasy/sci-fi romance anymore, but I loved it here in Waiting for You. It's subtle, but ever present and as I said, just makes their story all the more intriguing. I can't wait for the conclusio...
