Release Week Review: How to Fake A Wedding Date (Little Black Book of Secrets #3) by Karen Booth

 


This socialite left her fiancé at the altar and now she needs a fake date to a wedding. What could go wrong?  

It started with one simple request: Pretend to like me for three days.”  

Canceling her own million-dollar wedding made socialite Alexandra Gold infamous. Now the only way to avoid going alone to the wedding of this season—and keep vicious gossip account Little Black Book of Secrets quiet—is to bring a fake date. 

The almost-perfect candidate: architect Ryder Carson, her brother’s best friend. Ryder’s off-limits, yet tempting, despite their recent history. And as the celebration heats up, so do the sparks. 

But is it only a matter of time before Little Black Book reveals their secret?

 What I thought about
How to Fake a Wedding Date

Alex Gold has a problem. She's notorious for canceling her high profile wedding and the paparrazzi are still looking for a story. When it comes time to manage her friend Chloe's wedding, she realizes she's going to need a date for the wedding.

To solve the problem, her brother recommends his business partner and friend Ryder, with the caveat it's all fake and Ryde will never touch his sister.

Oopsy.

The bro-code is very strong in this story.  Alex's brother is really sort of a jerk when he insists on that condition as if it's okay for Ryder to be a business partner but not a boyfriend to his sister?  Ugh.  I wanted to smack him, or at least tell him off because Alex was amazing and her and Ryder together --- even better.

There are no big surprises here, it's a story of two people finding love and then having to deal with everyone around them, many who think they belong together and some that believe they don't.  

How to Fake a Wedding Date is a lovely and sweet happily-ever-after story that I ripped through quickly, just because it was a wonderful world to spend time it.  I loved Ryder and Alex together and even more so after all the drama gets resolved.  An amazing feel-good story, with a terrific cover and a heart warming HEA.
