Vi and Soren's story is all about rules meant to be broken—and hearts along with them. Fake dating with a college football star? Sign me up! This book hits the sweet spot of banter, slow-burn romance, and just enough drama to keep me hooked.

What I Loved:
- Soren is a dream. He’s flirty, protective, and actually talks about his feelings (swoon!).
- Vi’s toughness and independence—she doesn’t need saving, but together, they make magic.
- The dual POV gives us insight into both their struggles, and it’s so satisfying to watch them support each other.
- No unnecessary third-act breakup! They’re mature, which makes the romance even better.

Favorite Moments:
- Soren protecting Vi from judgmental people. He’s loyal to a fault.
- Their first real kiss—it’s like the moment their fake relationship turns real.
- That plot twist with the coach! I did not see it coming, but it fits perfectly.

Why It’s 4 Stars:
It’s a solid, feel-good romance, but I wanted more depth to Vi’s backstory. We get glimpses, but Soren’s life feels more explored. Also, more football scenes would’ve been fun—it’s a sports romance, after all!

Final Thoughts:
This is the perfect read if you’re into fake dating, swoony football players, and lots of chemistry. I’m already counting down for the next book in the series!
