About this listen

As the number one quarterback in college football, my only dream is to make it to pro.

My richer-than-sin parents have a different goal. Their plan is for me to score a trophy wife whose trust fund can hold its own against mine, then join the family empire after graduation. The latter half of that plan means giving up my dream of professional football. The first part means sitting through excruciating dates with girls who already have their wedding vows written.

In an attempt to free myself from one of my perpetual nightmares, I announce that I’m already in a serious, long-term relationship.

Which is a great excuse to get out of a date–if it were true.

To save the lie, I talk the intriguing campus black cat, Briar Hart, into pretending to be my girlfriend. She has a prickly heart, and she’s made it clear that she hates jocks.

But after I offer her something she can’t refuse, we’re suddenly faking our happily-ever-after to everyone.

If I’m not careful, I may start to believe it too.

Not my most favorite female narrator

Overall, I liked this audio a lot. JF is always a favorite and did an amazing job! While Savannah did a good job as well, the breathlessness of her voice bothered me often in this one. It is still worth the listen!

Fake Dating with Suspense!

Starting with the audio, I loved it! Duet with JF Harding & Savannah Peachwood, GIMMIE! They did a fantastic job bringing Thorn and Briar to life! This reverse grumpy sunshine was done so well by them, & I will def be relistening again in the future as they made it a great experience!

We all know by now I love me a down bad man, and once Thorn is in Briar's orbit, he doesn't want to leave it! They have a little enemies/frenemies thing going at first because Thorn makes some assumptions (SIR), but Briar also is in the position to help & be helped by him, so win win there. Their banter is top tier as well!

I love when a fake dating turns real (duh, it never stays fake hehe), and I love how they come together & fall for each other. Even with Thorn's little freak out (you'll know when you get there), their story was SO GOOD! I don't always love a third act breakup, but gotta admit the angst is worth it! Love a little emotional rollercoaster lol!

PS: the mystery aspect of this was great! Enjoyed the twist & how Thorn and his bestie (hoping he has a story coming!) were all in on solving that!
