A much nicer Valentine's Day read! Denz runs into the man who broke his heart in college, just when he needs a fake relationship to prove he's serious enough to take over his father's party planning company. I enjoyed his twitterpated pining and the big wacky cast of family and friends, plus there's a nice growth arc for him. If you yearn for romcoms with black and queer characters, this was literally written for you.

pickDenz needs to prove that he is serious enough to take over the family business now that is father is retiring and thinks a pretend relationship is the way to go. Who am I to question his logic when it somehow means spending time with the ex who broke his heart but still makes ir race. A fake dating, second chance romance with a big interfering family and a hero I want to sit around and dissect rom coms with, I had a lot of fun readjng this book.
pickVeteran YA writer Julian Winters‘s adult debut is all kinds of moreish with its punchy prose and characters so vibrant you know they‘re off living full lives even when they aren‘t in Denz‘s orbit. Add in plenty of jokes, a few wacky hijinks, and an ever-applicable knowledge of the romcom canon and you‘ve got something that‘s mighty hard to put down. If you‘re at all interested in contemporary romance, you want it when it drops on January 28th.
I was gonna save my ARC of if I THINK THEY LOVE YOU for the new year, but I couldn‘t resist starting it last night and I‘ve struggled to put it down since. It‘s exactly what I feel like: a contemporary romance with great energy and vibrant characters.
The beer was 100% a can buy that paid off. It‘s a tasty, low-alcohol offering that goes down easy with a bit of a bite. $0.10 from every can goes to artist Cyndi Wiebe, too.
pickNot me hiding my Kindle during the steamy parts &hiding my tears during the serious moments while on a plane (the laughter I figured I could get away w/). This book has it all.
I originally grabbed this for the cover. 2nd chance romances are hit &miss for me, but I like fake dating so was curious how much I‘d enjoy it. I loved it! The handling of both tropes was done so well &every character had rich &complex personalities along w/growth.
