One canceled date.
One overbooked hotel.
One fake boyfriend who feels way too real.I arrive at a family wedding expecting maid-of-honor chaos—not to share a room with Tristan Hayes, the devastatingly charming nightclub owner I’ve crushed on for too long.
When the hotel runs out of rooms, Tristan gives his to an elderly couple without hesitation, and I see the kind of man he is.
So I offer to share my king-sized bed.Just for the weekend. It’s totally innocent.
Until my ex shows up with a date.Suddenly Tristan’s hand is on my waist, his smile lethal, and he becomes my fake boyfriend. It's temporary and perfect.
Except the chemistry isn’t fake.
And wedding weekends don’t last.Or do they?
A fun, flirty wedding-weekend romance featuring fake dating, forced proximity, one bed, and a hero who always shows up—with a guaranteed HEA.
Fast paced and adorable! The second book in Phillips’ Dare to Fall series is again novella length, so moves quickly and is easy to devour in one sitting. Kaylee has been crushing on Tristin, and a situation at their mutual friend/family wedding makes for an interesting situation when they’re sharing one room with one bed before they know it. The characters are both easy to like, the chemistry between them is sweet and steamy and I liked them together a lot. No a huge amount of development into either of their back stories greatly, or in their relationship because of the short novella length, but I left enjoying the time spent with them.
