My review:

I am enjoying the Forever Marriage Match series.  Dare to Love My Fake Husband is the third book in the series, and I highly recommend reading them in order. The series follows a group of five friends.

I adored this story!!

Forced Marriage/Marriage of Convenience.

Witty banter.

Cute nicknames.

Enemies to lovers. 

Pat the Possum.

Learning your true self.

I did not like Blakeley's mother at all. She was overbearing and rude. Blakeley's character can seem off-putting at first, but I liked her. Dean was a great love interest, and the story developed well. While the story seems to be all fluff, there are deeper issues at play (PCOS), but handled with sensitivity and care.

★★★★/5

Synopsis (Goodreads): 

New Louboutins? Check
Fashion design mogul? Check
VIP wherever it matters most? Check
An unsettled feeling about the future? Um, check


Pressure to live a certain lifestyle turned my world toxic. Late nights bubble with drama, my relationship with my “not-boyfriend” fizzles, and failing to meet my parents’ expectations means one thing. They arrange my marriage.

Yes, for real.

Dean Wolfson is not looking for love, nor does he want his family’s business to go under. When he has the opportunity to bail them out, he says yes to marrying his best friend’s sister—a hot mess. It’s just temporary and then he can get on with his life.

I resent that, thank you very much.

We’re sent to the countryside to “play house.” What starts as a disaster with a leaky roof, sneaky possum, and an indoor mushroom farm turns into distraction. Dean with his charm—showing me what real fun is. And I guess he likes my smile or something.

But when I learn about a secret from his past, do I dare love him?
