A fresh take on the classic "fake dating" trope.

I was pleasantly surprised with how much depth this story had. It's a great emotional read.

I enjoyed how real the story felt. And absolutely loved the banter!

I liked that the author didn't shy away from anxiety and panic disorders, it made it more relatable.

This was a really good book and I highly recommended!

Thank you to Netgalley and Macmillan Audio for allowing me to listen to this audiobook ahead of release in exchange for my honest opinion.

I wasn't expecting much out of this fake-dating, sapphic romance novel, but this was so cute and good!

I'm not normally a fan of the miscommunication trope, but this one actually made sense to me. Olive and Stella were both sweet but flawed characters, and I loved their different family dynamics (I'm not used to reading books that include family members in comas, so this was a nice change of pace).

The cringiest part was the fact that the beginning had so much detail about Disney World. As someone who loves going at least once a year and used to work there... I hate reading about it in fiction. It just gives me the ick.

Otherwise, this was such a fun read with a lot of heart and some deeper topics, so I highly recommend if you're looking for a quick read!

This book started off great, lagged a little in the middle, but still ended strong for me. I would likely recommend it to others because overall I did enjoy it. I feel like this could've been 5 stars for me if it was dual POV. There were also a few pieces that weren't fully fleshed out in my opinion.

Since I did enjoy this one overall I will definitely check out future work from this author. This was also excellent on audio.

A swoony, feel-good, opposites attract, fake dating Sapphic romance that has EXCELLENT disability rep. I loved this emotionally charged new to me romance author's debut!! Olive is a flying-phobic ER nurse trying to fulfill her comatose brother's bucket list and Stella is an ambitious pilot looking for a promotion.

When a video of them together goes viral, Stella proposes a fake-dating scenario that quickly leads to real feelings. Steamy and full of heart, this is one not to be missed!! Perfect for fans of authors like Alexandra Bellefleur or Anita Kelly and good on audio too. Many thanks to NetGalley and the publisher for early audio and digital copies in exchange for my honest review!!!
