My Fake Rake by Eva LeighMy rating: 3 of 5 stars
3.5 stars!
I have tried this author before and I couldn't connect with that book, but I'm so glad I gave this one a chance. It's a really beautiful story. The trope of fake-courting has been done before and it's usually a fan favorite so sometimes it might be hard to find something "new" to add to it. The author manages to give the trope a new life by working a few angles in a different way. There's a very cemented friendship between the characters based on their scientific pursuits and trust based upon them. I quite enjoyed the fact that it was Sebastian undergoing the makeover and that he also worked so hard to be thoughtful of what Grace wanted and not to overstep. I also enjoyed the reverse role of the heroine realizing that she hadn't been fair towards Sebastian.
While the ending is a little over the top, this was a wonderful read and I look forward to knowing the stories of the rest of Sebastian's friends.
*I was given an ARC in Edelweiss under no obligation.*
