An all-star NFL player stays in the library to hide from his fans... He asked the librarian to pretend to be engaged to him to fix his image... She needs the money to help pay her mom's medical bills...

A funny, sweet rom-com. Love both characters... Very light-hearted... So many LOL scenes... A quick fun read.

Thanks to the publisher for the arc.

love a fake engagement story and this one was top notch!!

such a fun read, also love a small town setting so that was a bonus also. i loved chris, mae and the entire town of two harts!!

the pick up lines at the start of the chapters had me laughing the whole way through.

this book was sweet and funny, it's not spicy at all so if you're looking for a fun, feel-good read look no further.

thank you to netgalley for the opportunity to love this book

A fun, quick read.

BLURB:
I can’t lock up the library until the guy asleep at his desk leaves. Thank the universe for audiobooks because I could be here all night. But I see his mouth twitch at the exact moment a steamy kiss takes place. My face burns when I realize my headphones aren’t plugged in and my phone is at full volume.

It's not every day you see a new face in my small hometown of Two Harts, let alone one belonging to an annoyingly handsome all-star NFL player. But for some reason Chris Sterns has decided that the library where I work is his go-to spot to hide from his mega-fans, and unfortunately, winding me up is his new favorite sport.

Being crowned “world’s sexiest man” has done little to curb his confident charm and when he somehow ropes me into his two-person book club, I can’t help warming to his endless positivity.

But when a photo of him stumbling out of a Las Vegas club with a woman in tow is leaked to the press, I can’t help but question whether his good boy persona is just an act.

And that’s far from the only answer I’m left searching for when Chris pops the question I’ve only ever heard in my favorite romance books. Did he really just ask me to marry him?

It’s not the proposal I was expecting, but with my mom’s medical bills piling up faster than I can pay them, and with the scandal threatening to ruin everything Chris has worked for; could an engagement be the perfect fake out for us both? Or is this a game we’ll both lose?

MY REVIEW:
I loved this book! I found it so funny, there were so many cringe moments that I could fully relate to, which had me feeling embarrassed for the main character.

I’m a sucker for a fake relationship romance, and this one didn’t disappoint. Although utterly predictable, as any good romance book should be, it was such a fun read.

This light-hearted book was a quick read, finished in under an hour.

Thank you to NetGalley for a copy of this book in return for my honest review.
