An easy, breezy, steamy love story over the course of a 4-week Lovefest competition in a small town. It takes place in Scotland and one of my favorite things was all the fun slang Allie McDermid incorporated. I didn’t know what half of it meant but I wanted to. The book really made me want to visit Glasgow. The only thing I didn’t love was how they handle their hang ups with their exes, but I get it, there has to be some drama. I liked the characters and their chemistry was sizzling.

Great quote: “there was little better than a glass of wine and her own company.”

Short summary: Holly’s landed back on her parents’ doorstep after failing at everything in London, at least that’s the way she sees it, and the last thing she’s going to do is fall in love again. So when she ends up participating in a dating competition her first week home, embarking on a fake relationship seems the best, safest course of action in order to garner publicity for her family’s deli. That’s just fine with Jen who needs the money and has exactly zero interest in being in a relationship. Can they keep up the charade or are those real feelings bubbling beneath the games?
