🏈 💓 NEW RELEASE💓🏈
From USA Today and Wall Street Journal Bestselling author Meagan Brandy comes a new standalone, fake relationship romance with a twist!
FAKE IT ‘TIL YOU BREAK IT by MEAGAN BRANDY is NOW LIVE !!!!
Synopsis:
Fake.
That’s what we are.
That’s what we agreed to be.
I thought it would be harder, convincing everyone our school’s star receiver was mine and mine alone, but we played our parts well.
So well, the lines between us began to blur until they disappeared completely.
The thing about pretending, though, someone’s always better at it, and by the time I realized my mistake, there was no going back.
I fell for our lie.
And then everything fell apart.
It turned out, he and I were never playing the same game.
He didn’t have to break me to win.
But he did it anyway.

Her little nose scrunches. “Don’t be a dick.”
“Don’t ask questions you know the answer to.” I shrug. “Why would couples stand off to the side or walk away from groups and shit like that?”
She purses her lips, giving a sassy, “Privacy.”
“Exactly.” I shift her more, so they can’t see my face. “Right now, at least half of them are staring right at us, each one thinking something along the lines of how bad you must need me, or how hard I must be for you, if we have to take a few extra minutes to ourselves before we can even consider sitting through a dinner with the rest of them.”
She attempts to glance over her shoulder, so I shoot my hand up, catching her chin before she can, my fingers spreading along her jaw and neck in the same move.
Damn if she doesn’t even flinch.
I continue. “The girls are wondering what filthy things I’m promising to do to you later when you come to my room, you are coming to my room by the way.” Her eyes narrow, but it’s playful as hell. “The guys are wondering if you’re biting into your bottom lip, if your eyes are growing darker, and wishing they knew what that looked like, knowing they’ll never get the chance now that you’re mine.”
“Wow,” she teases, purposefully breathy. “You really think you’ve got this whole prepped and ready thing down.”
A laugh escapes me before I can squash it, and I tug her a little closer.
She stares a long moment. “So, I’m challenged with convincing everyone your mood swings turn me on?”
“And I get to be the possessive boyfriend who doesn’t want you outta arm’s reach.”
“Get to?” She smashes her lips to the side, tryin’ real hard not to let her grin slip.
“Get. To. D.”
“What makes you think possessive is what I’d like?”
A light chuckle leaves me, and I lick my lips, leaning into her as I slowly slide my arms down. When she doesn’t budge, my palms slip a little lower, now resting just below her waist, my pinkies propped on her ass cheeks.
She inhales, waiting.
“Demi,” I whisper. “I tell you right now, the last thing you want is a pussy ass dude who won’t push you. You’re too smart, too independent for a doormat of a guy, and too strong to ever be one yourself. You’ll take charge... but you’ll like it more when I do.”
***4 Stars***
Oh, the teen angst in this one is strong...and highly addicting. These characters definitely got under my skin and kept me turning the pages until there were no more words to read.
Demi and Nico. These two...I really liked them, I did, but boy did they drive me batshitcrazy. Demi is one of those people who is sweet, sassy, strong and smart in so many ways, and yet she is so blind in others. Nico, so complex, so conflicted, with so much going on in his head and heart, he can’t always see beyond his own nose and yet he has a good heart that only a select few see.
Their journey to their HEA was all kinds of bumpy, but I can’t say I didn’t enjoy it. They may have done things half-ass backwards when it came to...well...everything, but I can’t deny that they had that flow to them that had me hoping they’d both see what was right in front of them before it was too late.
This was my first read by the author and I thoroughly enjoyed the experience and will be checking out more from the author in the future. The writing was engaging, pacing good and the dual first person POV’s done very well. The teen angst is high in this one, but there is a lot of heart to balance it out. There are some issues that could be triggers to some, but all are handled well and necessary to the story. As for the secondary cast of characters...I don’t have an absolute favorite of the bunch ~ I do have a few I wanted to knock upside the head with a 2x4 though ~ but I thought they were all well written and gave me that young adults transitioning into new adults vibe with their actions and emotions.
