Plot
He walks the red carpet. She’s more familiar with vacuuming one.
When a scandal tarnishes the reputation of hot as hell A-lister, Patrick Walsh, he needs a reputation rescue, pronto.
Enter waitress Norah Peers–a nobody who’s average with a capital A. She’s available, dependable, and has sworn off men for the rest of her natural born life. In other words: the perfect match for a no-strings fake romance.
For the right amount of money, she can avoid waitressing and play the part of his dependable down-to-earth girlfriend. What she can’t avoid–dammit–is the growing steam between them.
But being hounded by the paparazzi and having her life dissected on social media is a panic attack in the making. And while Patrick might be a charming rogue on screen, in real life he’s a six-foot-two confusing, gorgeous, brooding grump, who keeps her at a distance . . . but also makes her feel like this bond between them might be more than just an act.
Being dumped on cue should be no big deal. Except being fake with Patrick is the realist relationship Norah has ever had. What’s a girl to do, but flip the script, and ask for a re-match made in Hollywood?

Conclusion
Since the "fake relationship turning into something real" is one of my favorite tropes I just had to read Kylie Scott's new book.
And let me tell you this, I don't regret it. AT ALL!!
It was really easy to get into because of how well Kylie Scott writes.
The book was written from Norah's POV. I loved her sassiness and how relateable she was. I also enjoyed that she didn't let anyone treat her like shit and how she stood up for herself in the end.
Patrick is a famous actor but still was very down to earth in my opinion. To be honest I feel like he didn't deserve the reactions to what he did. His behavior showed when exactly he realized he fell in love with Norah and I would've loved to read at least a few chapters from his point of view.
Patrick and Norah had such great chemistry that even when their relationship was "fake" it felt like it wasn't. It felt real the whole time.
5 out of 5 stars
