Publisher's Summary

Ollie:

Word of advice: Don't come out to random guys in public restrooms. Even if they're charming and adorably nerdy and offer to help.

My family believes I can't be happy if I'm not out to the world. I have a bitter ex-boyfriend and an unstable NHL career to show for it. A fake boyfriend seems like an easy and quick solution to get my family off my back, and this guy is volunteering. I take him up on it without asking his name.

I really should've asked for his name.

Lennon:

Word of advice: Learn how to introduce yourself properly. In my defense, I don't recognize Ollie Strömberg right away. I cover football, not hockey. I'm not supposed to see him again, and he's never supposed to find out I'm a reporter. That all changes when my editor reassigns me.

It's a lesson I should've learned by now. Nothing's changed since high school. Jocks still hate nerds. But even worse, athletes hate journalists. Especially ones who know their secret.

Contains mature themes.

My favorite so far!!

As per the last ones, l love the narration. This story was very sweet and the support was huge. I'm sad that I'm almost done the series. I love getting to hear from all the other characters in each book. This book had me laughing out loud a few times and my heart skipping a beat even more, it's absolutely worth the read/listen!!

This queer gem. 👌❤️

I laughed so hard I cried. I like falling asleep to books, but this one kept making me laugh out loud as soon I was drifting off. Worth the loss of REM IMHO. 👌 Ollie's family dynamic was hilarious... and the banter throughout the entire story was *chefs kiss.* The slow burn to scorching hot was unbelievably satisfying (honorary mention for that treehouse scenerio?! 🥵). This particular story also shed a lot of insight to how so many LGBTQIA2S can struggle in a hetronormatove and homophobic environment, despite progress in society for more tolerance and acceptance. Bravo.

Fun story, great narration

I think I liked the narration of this book the most in the series so far. The Boston accent is great. I could easily tell the characters apart throughout the book which I can’t always with other characters/narrators.

Of course, this is a sweet and steamy love story but it has many laugh out loud parts too. They include any interaction between Ollie and his family, the treehouse scene and pretty much any line of Jet’s (also in book #2).

Love Eden Finley's books

I have been in love with the Fake boyfriends series from the first page to the last one and loved it! I could not wait to start the next one. This 3rd one just confirmed it, I loved it and can't wait read the next one.😁
