Maybe I've just read too many books with this theme lately, but it seemed that Dani acted more like a teenager than the 20 something adult she was supposed to be. Wes, with his back and forth drama got on my nerves and the tension that was supposedly between them , didn't jump off the page at all. I mainly just wanted to reach in the book and smack them both up side their heads, and tell them to just freaking get it over with already.

Dani and Wes have been friends since they met in college. After one drunken kiss they decided that friends was all they would ever be. Fast forward a few years and both Wes and Dani are both single due to silly ex's and both are in need of a significant other to appease parents and bosses. So Dani and Wes decide to pretend to be engaged. They show up together at Wes's parents house and that was when things seemed to really get serious for both of them. Though, you wouldn't know it, since they kept everything to themselves.

Dani heads home after Wes's sisters wedding, and she keeps trying to push away the feeling she has for Wes. Wes is trying to do the same thing in NC, but both are really failing. Wes travels to AK to keep up his end of the "engagement" deal during the company retreat for Dani. Things really come to a head and while they slightly confess their feelings to each other, Dani sabotages it with her, but I can't move for you, because that would just be too much of a commitment on her part.

Overall, I wasn't satisfied with this book at all, there was just too much whining, and not enough action on either main characters part. ( )

Full Review on NG ( )

they've been best friends forever but neither has ever found true love. When they each have an event that would be so much easier to go to with a fiance they decide to pose as a happily engaged couple. Read this wonderfully written story to see how that works out for them. ( )

For a romance novel this story line is not overly unique, however it is written well and the characters are believable. I rounded down from three and a half stars only because of how childish and less believable I found Wes near the end. All in all; cute romance. ( )
