About this listen

"Afraid to be alone with me?" he challenged. "How am I going to be your boyfriend then?"

"Pretend boyfriend," I emphasized.

He gave me a tight-lipped smile. "You do know that this has to look convincing if you expect people to believe I'm your boyfriend, don't you?"

In desperation, Sarah hires Gage to pretend to be her boyfriend. It was supposed to be only a business arrangement, but now her feelings for her fake boyfriend are real.

Thank you to Suzana Thompson for providing me with a free audiobook in return for an honest review.

The fake boyfriend stories are one of my favourite genres, so when I found this book, I couldn't wait to read it. The story is through heroine, Sarah's point of view and begins with her meeting classmate and outcast Gage with a proposition to be her pretend boyfriend in order to protect her from sleezy boys at school.

This was a completely adorable story. I really felt for the main character; sweet, naive and harassed by her new step sister's friends. She had a really lovable personality with a spunky side to her. Her 'fake boyfriend' Gage is also a lovely character with probably the best progression. On our first meeting with him he seemed like a very uncaring, hardened character, however as the story progresses and he and Sarah get to know each other more he begins to really earn his role as a great book boyfriend.

The storyline is predictable but really enjoyable. I loved listening to Gage and Sarah's relationship grow from acquaintances to real feelings. 

The narrator of the story did a good job for the most part. I found dialogue quite hard because she would usually use the same kind of voice that she would for Sarah, so I found it quite hard to differentiate. Other than that however, she kept good pace and understood the story as she read. 

This story is short. I maybe would have liked a little more backstory into Gage and his mum but it didn't completely need it. It was a satisfying storyline that had a good ending.

I'd recommend this to young adult romance lovers. I really enjoyed it and will definitely look out for more books by Suzana Thompson.

Adorable story!
