Review: The Big Fake

✩

What do you do when you find out your boyfriend cheated?

Throw up on a gorgeous stranger. Obviously.

Rock bottom, nice to meet you.

Dean Slater–the guy wearing my breakfast–got cheated on, too.

We have a perfectly stupid plan to make sure it never happens again.

If everyone thinks we’re together, we can both stay off the market.

No matchmaking friends and family. No more messy breakups.

We’ll keep things long distance, never be in the same room, and it’ll be smooth sailing.

Except there’s a catch.

We’re both invited to my sister’s wedding.

Oh, don’t worry, it gets worse.

My sister’s wedding to my boss.

The wedding my whole family is invited to.

And guess who else is invited?

My new fake boyfriend everybody is thrilled to finally meet in the flesh.

To survive, we’re going to have to fake it harder than either of us planned.

Dirty “fake” kisses, a shared hotel room with a see-through bathroom door, one painfully memorable couple’s game later, and things are way past complicated.

Real feelings collide with old promises. Our big messy lie threatens to unravel my sister’s perfect weekend. And that vow I made to never date again? If it could wear boots, it would be shaking in them.

Review: I wish I had something good to say about this book, but unfortunately I don't. Right from the first pages I disliked the characters, the plot and the supposed humor. Not to mention there are lots of editing mistakes. 

This is one of the very rare books I didn't finish reading. I stopped at about one third and just couldn't bring myself to waste more time with it. 

It does have some raving reviews on Amazon, so I assume the problem may be all mine. 

Happy readings otherwise!
