Gay fake boyfriend books
In my last post, I mentioned tropes like friends to lovers and hate to love and instalove, and after I had posted, I kept thinking about it. And I remembered, that more than instalove, my very favorite trope is the imitation boyfriend trope. Mostly because it can usually give me a little bit of the other tropes that I love too. So, today I’m going to talk about a series I liked so much I am reading it again!
I’m going to review each book individually because they are each pretty distinct and fun to talk about. But for a brief review to give you an notion of what you are going into: the first three books keep up the fake partner trope, after that point the world just expands minus the fake boyfriend thing. Sports is a major part of this series. But as someone who low-key hates sports, I actually didn’t mind that at all. In fact, it just gentle of made the fact that all the guys were blazing as fuck actually make meaning. Like, have you ever noticed in books, everyone is super hot? And I’m all, where are these hot men IRL? But in these books, it makes sense that everyone has a six pack because th

Beth Bolden’s intense, fiery Italian American Moretti family stretches over two series, sorry, three, as cousin Rocco is heading off to Christmas Falls towards the end.
The Moretti family, brothers or cousins, can be found as chefs or restauranteurs in the wonderful Food Truck Warriors and now in her Indigo Bay novels. And as I mentioned even more.
While these books are listed as standalone, they really aren’t as they need the foundation of the preceding novel to give the reader depth of understanding of the characters, their history, and the setting of Indigo Bay from the perspective of both stories.
Here, it’s Enzo Moretti, a traits who was introduced to readers in Sweet as Pie #1, but returning home (temporarily) older and as an established mural artist . He’s separated himself from the Moretti family culinary path, and has tried to undertake the same with his own life by his absence.
I thought Bolden, who always does an exemplary job of layering her characters, has made Enzo a person to relate to with his complicated family dynamics and control troubled journey
What’s even better than fake dating? Actual dating. But of course, we all know that’s what fake dating always eventually leads to. Ask any theater kid or player who’s ever been enmeshed in a showmance — you can’t just fake to fall in love with someone without at least a little bit of falling in love with them. Try telling that to the couples at the heart of these 12 queer fake dating website books, though. They’ll never believe you.
I love scant things more than some good imitation dating fan fiction — fiction, I signify, fake dating fiction — and these 12 books are wonderful examples of all the things this trope does so well. With ignorant romantics and reciprocal crushes, not to mention forced proximity and some occasional enemy to lovers, fake dating encompasses so many joy elements of adoration fiction. Writers treasure it, readers admire it, and from the amount of books continuing to come out, I think it’s secure to say publishers love it, as well. They affectionate how much readers love it, anyway. So whether you’re a writer, a reader, or simply a romantic daydreamer, take a moment to enjoy the oblivious antics of
Fake Boyfriend
Maddox - The reason I rarely go home is three simple words: I'm a liar.
When the pressure to marry my childhood sweetheart became too much, I told her I was gay and then fled to New York like my ass was on fire.
Now, five years later and after a drunken encounter, I find myself invited to her wedding. And I have to bring my boyfriend-the boyfriend who doesn't exist because I'm unbent.
At least, I ponder I am. Meeting the guy I'm bribing to be my boyfriend for the weekend makes me question everything about myself.
Damon - When my sister asks me to pretend to be some straight guy's boyfriend, my automatic response is to say no. It's because of guys like him people don't believe me when I tell them I'm gay.
But Maddox has something I deserve.
After an injury that cost me my baseball career, I'm trying to leave my playing days behind and focus on being the best sports agent I can be. Forty-eight hours with my sister's best friend in exchange for a rendezvous with a possible client. I can do this.
I just wish he wasn't so hot. Or that he didn't smooch like he m
