Review: Faking With Benefits

 

Title: Faking With Benefits 

Author: Lily Gold

Release Date: December 2021

WANTED: Three fake boyfriends. Must be tall, ripped — and willing to teach me how to kiss.

My name is Layla Thompson, and I am undateable.

Seriously. I’m twenty-eight and I’ve never had a boyfriend. And with my thirties rapidly approaching, I’m starting to lose patience.

Lucky for me, I have three overprotective best friends who are all-too-eager to help hone my dating skills.

There’s Zack, the huge rugby player with the cheeky grin and rippling biceps.

Josh, the boy-next-door with the sculpted jaw and calculating stare.

And Luke, the silver-haired divorcee… who also happens to be my old professor.

After a bad date leaves me crying on their shoulders, the three men are determined to help me find a guy. Together, they agree to be my ‘practice boyfriends’, and come up with a lesson plan packed with fake dates, make out sessions, and classes on flirty texting. In return, I just have to make an appearance on their relationship advice podcast once a week. Easy.

But as my lessons become more and more intense, we soon find ourselves getting in too deep. Every butterfly-inducing touch lingers a little too long, and every molten kiss ends in fireworks. It’s not long before I realise that their friendship isn’t enough for me anymore. I want more.

The guys have been teaching me how to get a boyfriend, and now it’s time I put their lessons to the test.

Three times over.

Faking With Benefits is a sizzling fake dating romance featuring multiple love interests, tons of molten fake relationship heat, and a whole lot of heart. No cheating, and an ultra-sweet HEA guaranteed!

Layla Thompson's latest date fled through a bathroom window, which led her to crying to her three best friends about it. Luke, Zack & Josh came up with a plan. They would help teach Layla how to flirt, date, text and more in exchange for her coming on their podcast once a week. The only stipulation is no feelings. So what happens when friendship between them just isn't enough anymore. 

So I love a good romcom to read between my heavy and dark reads, and love a good reverse harem so I figured I would give this one a try. 

This was a good read that had me smiling throughout & loving all the cute and weird nicknames Zack was giving to Layla. 

And even though it was more than just a funny book - with a little emotion thrown it, over all I enjoyed it. 

If you like friends to lovers or fake dating tropes & reverse harem then this may be the book for you.
