Just a Few Fake Kisses and The True Love Experiment

💖💖💖💖/5


 Just a Few Fake Kisses by Jayci Lee, book three in the Hana Trio series, , a schoolgirl crush turns into an intense and heated romance. Musician Chloe is thrilled when violinist Anthony, her longtime crush, joins the Hana Trio while her sister is on maternity leave. When she agrees to be his fake girlfriend to save his reputation, he's determined that nothing physical will happen between them. Chloe doesn't care if romance is off the table; she's not going to give up the chance to fulfill her fantasies. As these spend time together, between rehearsal and dates, things begin to heat up to being more than friends. Before things get serious, they both have issues to overcome; especially Anthony, who is struggling with guilt over the death of his wife. This unfortunately affects his feelings about relationships and his treatment of Chloe, who has already fallen for him. As foolish decisions are made and hearts broken, forgiveness will certainly be the soothing balm of reconciliation reconnects them.

 

The second book, The True Love Experiment, is by Anne Marsh, an opposites attract/friends to lovers story with a fake dating/second chance featuring a brainiac and a romantic at heart. Wren is tired of having her ex-boyfriends find true love immediately after their relationship ends. Not only that, she needs to find a date for the wedding of her latest ex, who’s marrying her cousin, where her meddling family will also be in attendance. Eight years ago, when Nash was the teaching assistant for her college chemistry class, Wren asked him out. He turned her down, but he became her tutor, which grew into a bi-monthly taco Tuesday lunch meeting, and a strong friendship. Wren and Nash have “friend-zoned” themselves and don’t dare risk losing their friendship by acting on their attraction. They are the epitome of the grumpy sunshine trope. Wren’s love for characters like Mr. Darcy hint at Nash being the perfect match as do the scenes of them together, with sizzling chemistry. Nash’s need for his own fake date as he promised his brother’s fiancé that he’d participate in her bachelor auction also hints at their connection. Neither Wren nor Nash are ready when their feelings explode the confines of that neat box they were in, demonstrating how perfect they are for each out. This story is an adorable romantic comedy.

I highly recommend Just a Few Fake Kisses and The True Love Experiment to other readers.
