Fake Out by Eden Finley

Fake Boyfriend Book 1

Narrators Iggy Toma & Alexander Cendese

After having read Can’t Say Goodbye and The Backup Plan, I got curious about the origin stories. So I decided to start off with the Fake Boyfriend series and Damon and Maddox story in Fake Out.

This book is hilarious and the way I walked around at work laughing out loud constantly, jesus. Luckily my sister now is immune to my antics.  

Maddox has a problem, he has lied for years and it is now coming back to bite him in the ass. So when he needs a fake boyfriend, who better to help than his best friend's brother Damon. Damon who he has never met in real life and now has to spend a weekend at home with. What could go wrong?

Damon, who is in his last year of Law school before he can start his job as an sports agent, doesn’t have time to do favors for his sister's best friend. But being bribed with getting the chance to meet a potential client he concedes and goes to this adventurous weekend with Maddox. What he didn’t expect though was the easiness of “relationship” and the attraction they both felt. What will they do when they get back to New York and “real” life happens?  

I won’t spoil the book but OMG it was so fun and light hearted and I can see why this universe has become so popular. Since I have read books in the same universe that time-line wise comes later on, I do know some of the stories on how people end up together. But reading the full stories is amazing and so much fun. You get the nuances to why they work together and how they come to be.  

So if you want to read something with low-ish angst, smüt and so many funny moments this is the book for you.
