How to Fake it in Hollywood: A sensational fake-dating romance

Product Information

Thank you to Random House Publishing Group - Ballantine, Dell and NetGalley who provided me with a copy of this book in exchange for an honest review. All the thoughts and opinions are my own. Though their juicy public relationship is less than perfect behind the scenes, it doesn’t take long before Grey and Ethan’s sizzling chemistry starts to feel like more than just an act. This rom-com delivered in a big way! The chemistry between the characters was sizzling! And the difficult topics were dealt with in a serious, respectful manner and not just a passing thought.

This was SO GOOD! ₊˚ෆ Ava Wilder has written one of the best slow-burn romances I've ever read. Set in Hollywood, with two characters who are actors, Will They or Won't They has to be on your TBR.

While I wouldn’t describe this as a sad or dark romance, it does have a heaviness to it that I wasn’t expecting. Grey flushed. She felt her chest tighten in humiliation. She gave herself exactly three seconds to be upset: Three. Two. One. She took a deep breath, squared her shoulders, and strode up to the barista. I strongly believe Ava Wilder is an underrated romance author and can't recommend her books highly enough.

A superb rom-com that delivered all the necessary ‘feels’ but so much more. Once again, our authors are exploring heavier topics normally avoided in rom coms, until recently. Exposing everyday issues that most readers experience in the course of their own lives. In this case it’s substance abuse and grief.after his hoe phase, he got into a serious relationship for 3 years aweeeeee 🥹 (his longest ever and had nothing but good things to say about her) But the two of them together had sparks from the start. I loved how Wilder depicted their fake dating as the greatest slow burn romance with them hardly even talking to each other behind closed doors initially. The first time Grey had been called by her character’s name, it thrilled her. The next few times, it had bruised her ego a little. Now, six seasons and 132 episodes of Poison Paradise later, she took it in stride. It was better than not being recognized at all.
