I received a DIGITAL Advance Reader Copy of this book from #NetGalley in exchange for an honest review. From the publisher - "What a charming, warm, sexy gem of a novel....One of the best books I've read in a while."--Roxane Gay, New York Times bestselling author of HungerA groomsman and his last-minute guest are about to discover if a fake date can go the distance in this fun and flirty debut novel.Agreeing to go to a wedding with a guy she gets stuck with in an elevator is something Alexa Monroe wouldn't normally do.

Until a power outage strands him with the perfect candidate for a fake girlfriend...After Alexa and Drew have more fun than they ever thought possible, Drew has to fly back to Los Angeles and his job as a pediatric surgeon, and Alexa heads home to Berkeley, where she's the mayor's chief of staff. Too bad they can't stop thinking about the other... They're just two high-powered professionals on a collision course toward the long distance dating disaster of the century--or closing the gap between what they think they need and what they truly want...Have you ever wanted to just escape life and responsibilities and get caught up in a book that you cannot put down? This is the book! I wanted to escape a really stressful part of life and started this book and could not put it down. It's funny, it is romantic, it is cozy and warm and completely lovable and it had an excellent "meet cute". It was interesting when it comes to interracial dating as I am color-blind when it comes to skin --- it's a downright enjoyable read from start to finish!!
