ABOUT THE BOOK:

Rule No. 3: Don’t sleep with your best friend.

When my best friend asked me to be his fake girlfriend in order to pursue custody of his daughter, I didn’t hesitate to help out.

Living together, sharing his bed, and waking up in his arms, quickly rekindle the long-forgotten childhood crush I once had on him. Only, Harrison isn’t a child anymore, and neither am I. I can’t ignore his charm, the way I feel in his arms, or how amazing he is with his daughter. The attraction is undeniable and so are the feelings that are growing faster than I can acknowledge them.

We pretend to be the perfect family to keep up appearances. Town festivals, family gatherings, and mundane every day tasks take on a whole new meaning. I remind myself daily that our relationship isn’t real, until he proposes with his grandmother’s ring.

Harrison is determined to prove to me that the fairy-tales are real, but I know from experience happy ever afters don’t exist.

How long before this happy ever after falls apart and I’m left searching for my glass slipper?

Love Me Like You Do by Lea Coll
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This was a cute friends to lovers book. I liked Harrison and the way he loved his little girl. He wants to spend more time with her and this is where his best friend Everly enters as a fake fiancé.

She’s loved Harrison since she was little, but they never crossed the line of their friendship. And now he’s asking her what she always wanted and that is to be his, but to pretend. But along the way feelings that are not simply friendly awake and soon nothing about their relationship is fake.

But the past has a way of coming back to bite you and when he pushed too hard, she took a step back to reevaluate her life. Despite the drama it was refreshing seeing how they handled all the wrongs they both did and the HEA was that much sweeter.
