Falling For the Fake Fiance is Live & Review
Review
I received an ARC in exchange for and honest, voluntary review, via NetGalley.
This book had laughter, serious undertones and heart warming interactions. If you love a strong male character who thinks he knows what he wants and believes he is happy, until the right person comes into his life wakes him up, you will love this book. If you also, like a strong female character who believes she has everything under control and can do everything by herself until the right person makes her realize that everyone needs assistance once in awhile, this is your book.
Jill and Aaron were neighbors and friends when they were younger. Aaron went into the military and she stayed home. They had never thought of each other as more than neighbors and friends, at least she didn't. He was always attracted to her and didn't like when she was with other men.
Jill has always done everything on her own, but when her grammy dies, she leaves Jill her estate- under one condition. Jill has to marry within two months. Drowning her sorrows, because there is no way she can find a boyfriend and marry him within two months, she goes out with her friends. While out, she is speed dating and finding one weird guy after another. One of her friends leaves the table and texts her to go to a room in the hotel they are staying at. Once at the room, she doesn't see her friends, but she runs into Aaron and he is not the same kid neighbor that she remembers.
When Aaron comes back to his hometown to help his dad, he expects to get the job done as quickly as possible and get back to his town and start a new job. When he sees Jill, he invites he out to catch up. He thought she was beautiful when he was younger and now he believes she is even more beautiful.
They end up agreeing to have one night of passion and then going their separate ways, but fate has something else in mind. They start hanging out and growing closer. She introduces him to her daughter- with the help of her mother. He loves her daughter and they hit it off right away. Jill is very protective of her daughter, but when he offers to marry her so she can get the inheritance, she accepts. But they have to keep it a secret from everyone.
I believe this book moved at a believable pace, probably because it was set up and known from the beginning that they grew up together. While they both try to move slowly, they are both drawn to the other. They both realize that they want the relationship to be real, but they both know that he is leaving and she never wanted to be married. After they have feelings and realize that their feelings aren't fake, will they admit their feelings to each other? When she hears a phone call will she push him away or ask him what he really wants? Will Aaron take the job and leave Jill? Will he fight for Jill when he realizes he loves her?
