Release Blitz & Review: Fake It Till You Make It by Anne Harper

Fake It Till You Make It
by Anne Harper
Release Date: April 20, 2020

Sloane De Carlo is going to have to move to Antarctica.

As if it wasn’t bad enough that she accidentally made her private blog very public, and all her innermost secrets and embarrassing moments are trending, now the entirety of the Internet is dying to know who her all-consuming, never-get-over-him crush “Guy” really is. She’s even got a literary agent dangling a book deal in front of her nose—but there’s a catch. She’ll have to get closure with “Guy” and give her story that pitch-perfect ending.

Too bad the real “Guy” is engaged to someone else. #Blessed

The only person in her teeny hometown of Arbor Bay who knows the truth is local bartender Brady Knox. And he’s not telling...for a price. He’ll pretend to be Sloane’s “Guy” if she’ll use her newfound Internet fame to bring more business to his struggling local bar. Brady’s always been a lone wolf, but there’s something about the pint-sized, supremely awkward, yet beautiful Sloane that charms him.

But keeping secrets in a small town like Arbor Bay isn’t easy. And Brady was never meant to be the guy for a pitch-perfect ending...

I love the fake dating trope and this book really did it right. This was such a sweet story with hilarious moments and just the right amount of steam.

I really fell in love with the author's fluid storytelling. The writing was so smooth and inviting that I fell into the story effortlessly. I really loved the premise of the story. The plot was engaging, entertaining, and intriguing.

These characters were ones that I connected with easily. I immediately gravitated towards them. Both main characters, Sloane and Brady, were developed really well and have plenty of depth. Their goals, aspirations, and heartbreaks were clearly defined in the story. They both had great character development and changed a lot through the course of the story. This cast of secondary characters was extremely fun to read about. I hope that we get to hear their stories sometime in the future.

The romance was really heartwarming. Sloane and Brady had a slow-burn romance that really made me swoon. They grow close after spending time together during their fake romance. The lines of their fake romance start to blur when real feelings start to develop between them. It was a lovely journey watching Sloane and Brady figure things out. I really enjoyed their natural chemistry.

Overall, this was a fun romantic comedy with relatable characters and lots of heart. If you are a fan of the fake dating trope then this is a book that you won't want to miss out on. I can't wait to read what's next from this author!
