I adored this brother’s best friend, fake relationship romance! This sweet, slow burn story had all the feels, packing so much into it that I didn't want to stop reading it. The beginning had my heart racing, feeling bad for what was happening to Audrey as she was about to catch a flight. Just when she was at her lowest, her brother's best friend, Liam, happens to be at the airport, heading home to attend her parents party also. They have been in each other's lives since they were young. Audrey's brother, Max, would pick on her, but Liam was always her protector. He steps in again to fill in as her date, to stop her judgmental family, and maybe help him as well. Audrey and Liam both have strained relationships with their family, causing them to live across the country. Neither are looking for a relationship, so their temporary arrangement is perfect. They have known each other for years but as they fake a more intimate relationship, they begin to see each other in a new way. The sparks begin to fly, and they are helpless to fight their attraction, wondering if they could make their fake relationship real? But what could go wrong when it all starts with a lie to their meddling families? This was such a fun and flirty, heartfelt romance. I loved the banter between Audrey and Liam and their chemistry was palpable. My heart broke for both of them with what they went through, but loved how they supported each other completely. There were also some hilariously awkward scenes, and Audrey's brother Max was the heart of many of them. I can't wait for more about him! I love this second book in Hale's 'Happily Ever Mishaps' series, with it's enchanting, heartfelt, steamy story and the wonderful characters that you can’t help but fall for.
