Seth Mitchell has crushed on his best friend Chloe for as long as he can remember. Not wanting to risk their friendship, he keeps his feelings to himself, even as he watches Chloe go from one wrong guy to the next.

But when Mrs. Adams starts in early with her questions about when Chloe’s going to find herself a nice man and settle down like her brothers, a relaxing Thanksgiving holiday seems like a long shot.

In an bid to put an end to her mother’s incessant questioning, Chloe decides to ask Seth to come home for the holidays with her…and pretend to be her boyfriend.

Will Seth be able to keep his feelings to himself and fake this Adams’ family holiday or will it be one forked up mess?

  • Cringey and too long

    This book is so much longer than it needs to be. The way all of the characters talk is cringey.

    Loved this family. So many hilarious and witty lines and the relationship between Seth and Chloe plays out perfectly. Love a good fake dating romance and this one delivered. The mother/daughter relationship hit a little too close to home, but I could totally relate to Chloe’s feelings about her mom.
  • Toxic relationships

    It starts off with a cliché plot, and it’s all downhill from there. Normally I love a well written romance trope! Key words being well written, which this was not. Also, the heroine’s family is pretty toxic, with her mom constantly belittling her, but somehow the mom is still “great” and the family doesn’t react, despite being “loving”. It’s masking a toxic mother daughter relationship and presenting it as acceptable. The hero “stands up” to the mother by telling the heroine she’s beautiful or similarly positive things, but doesn’t actually stand up to the mother and actually really likes spending time with the mother in the book. Just couldn’t get behind it.
