The Fake Out is my new favourite Stephanie Archer book, but if she carries on with this track record each time she releases a new book it’ll become my new favourite- each book just keeps getting better and better. I am already so attached to this team after two books and the teaser for the next book- come on!
Hazel and Rory’s story is a sweet and spicy tale, with years of longing and protectiveness that escalate in a brilliant fake dating scenario that is obviously not fake.
At all.
Rory’s story was especially touching, I loved how this sweetheart of a man had such a well written journey. It was done so sensitively, with him finding himself and a found family. His relationship with Hazel was sweet and full of brilliant banter. She is such a strong character and nothing is lost as this relationship evolves.
It’s been a year of sports romance for me and this has shot well into my top 3! I can’t wait to read more in this series.
Thank you to Stephanie and her team for this ARC to review- all opinions are honest and my own.
