Thank you to Social Butterfly PR and Roxie Noir for sending me an e-ARC of this book to read and review! As always, this review reflects my honest opinion and can also be found on my Goodreads.
I will say fake dating is one of my favorite tropes and that I sort of expected this one to be the same as many others I’ve read. I will also say I was a FOOL for thinking that. This book is honestly now one of my favorite fake-dating stories! (What else can you expect when it is also enemies-to-lovers? It’s a two-for-one, best-of-both-worlds situation!)
To start, Silas and Kat are kind of forced into fake-dating each other rather than intentionally seeking each other out for a fake date, which switches up the usual dynamic. I love that they have a backstory, lending history to their mutual dislike. And that both of they are determined to do what it takes to take down Evan - a mutual enemy. The concept of a mutual enemy is also a new element of a familiar trope but I was living for it!
I am half in love with both Kat and Silas myself. She is sometimes awkward but hungry for vengeance, while his charm is a front for a harder core. Evan, despicable as he is, brings out the ruthlessness of both Kat and Silas which in turn makes them more determined to be the best (fake) couple. And wow, do they go above and beyond for their goal. They say it’s a thin line between love and hate, and despite very specific rules, Silas and Kat get the lines real blurry.
Roxie Noir also have a lovely way of writing, including descriptions that felt poetic and visual and so emotionally charged. It was a pleasure to read this book not only because of the fantastic characters and great plot, but the amazing writing as well. All of this to say, of course, that I strongly recommend you get a copy of this book as soon as possible. You won’t regret it.
The One Month Boyfriend, an all-new fake-relationship rom-com full of heat and laughs from bestselling author Roxie Noir, is available now!
It’s a simple enough agreement: for one month, Silas Flynn is my boyfriend of convenience.
He needs his old-fashioned boss to think he’s ready to settle down.
I need some arm candy to prove to my jerk ex-fiancé that I’ve moved on.
Perfect, right? Except for one minor detail: we can’t stand each other.
Everybody thinks he's this perfect guy, but I know the real Silas. He’s a cocky, obnoxious jerk who thinks he can charm his way out of trouble and get anything he wants.
But there’s one tiny problem with fake dating: it looks a lot like real dating. Worse, it feels a lot like real dating.
I know once this is over, we’ll go our separate ways. No matter the smoldering looks he gives me, the possessive way he touches me, or the dirty things he whispers in my ear, Silas isn’t falling for me.
That’s fine. No matter how good being with him feels, I’m not falling for him, either.
One month. That’s it.
Fall in love today!
