It's a classic story: Boy meets girl, girl breaks boy's heart, boy pretends to be gay to get back at girl, girl outs boy to everyone on Facebook. Okay, maybe it's not that classic. But it's what happened to me. When I bump into my cheating ex and catch sight of the moon-sized rock on her finger, there's only one option to save face: pretend to be dating my gay best friend, Declan. And when she outs me on Facebook and everyone I know sees it, there's still only one option: keep pretending to be dating Declan. And when Declan and I have to kiss to keep up the ruse and it turns out there's actually a spark between us (more like a blazing inferno, if truth be told) there's once again only one option... Warning: this book is not appropriate for anyone who doesn't like laughing, anyone who doesn't like dogs, or anyone who doesn't like hot men having a lot of sex...with each other.

There are two books here. The one that Isla Olsen wrote. And the one that's presented once it is in the hands of narrator Joel Leslie.

I appreciate that he tries to bring a lot of life to his characters, but ultimately, the characters he portrays are all versions of Joel Leslie. It's not ideal. Give me a Christopher North narration most days.

This is an enjoyable enough romcom, but it wasn't particularly inventive or humorous. Two great friends, one straight - Heath - and one gay - Declan - come up with a plan to pretend to be together and then fall for each other.

As with another book I've just commented on, Borrowing Blue by Lucy Lennox, my impressions of this book may have suffered because I started with #4, Hopeless Bromantics, which I enjoyed a lot. It overshadows #1 in the series because I've already been introduced to the freshness of Olsen's wit and style. ( )

Heath and Declan have been best friends since they met in college. One day, Heath runs in to his ex-girlfriend, the one who broke his heart, and she is wearing an engagement ring. Heath tells her that he is very happy with his new love, Declan. Then his ex outs him all over social media, and Declan and Heath decide to fake a relationship.

I enjoyed this. It was pretty fluffy, with rainbows and sprinkles and a rosy hue all over the place. I just felt as though there was something missing for me. And I didn't really appreciate that the misunderstanding was just there to create drama, not because it was actually germane to the story, or advanced the plot. That being said, I have since read three other books in the series, and enjoyed them even more than this one. ( )

Okay this isn't perfect. The two main characters are flat, there are that many secondary family characters I couldn't keep track of them and the plot is pretty thin. But. It was fkn hysterical. I was in stitches for the entire first half. The author has a talent for witty one liners, amusing conversation dialogue and the most ridiculously insane scenarios. Heath was such a smartass and his grandfather was awesome. I could've done without half of Declan's family - one of eleven? really? The drama at the end was stupid but the rest was an enjoyable fun flirty read. 3.5 stars, could be 4 if reworked to exclude the drama. ( )

This book was a fun spin on the old fake boyfriend trope. I never had a crush on a friend but I guess it happens. I liked Grandpa a lot. Loved the kitchen scene with the dishes breaking. The easy writing style and the comedic flair made this book special. ( )

I went looking for something m/m bi/gay and ridiculous. This was PERFECT, until the author insulted me/us with one of the most inane and transparently for word count conflicts I've ever seen.

After that, I couldn't care much about them. And I couldn't finish the short story at the end. Too goopy and, sad to say, repetitive.

Insulting. ( )
