Review: "Faking Ever After" by Chiara Crane

Faking Ever After by Chiara Crane
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Natalie Greer is dreading spending the summer in her hometown of Willow Springs filming the "family reunion" season of her parents' reality program, The Ever After Show, but when the show's executive producer offers her the chance to make a pilot of the travel show she's been dreaming of hosting for years, she reluctantly agrees to participate. The worst part about coming home is being forced back into proximity with Jesse Finch, the son of her parents' co-hosts and her former high school crush. When a scandal involving Jesse's parents breaks and threatens the future of the show, the producers decide to try and shift the public's attention by creating a fake relationship between Jesse and Natalie. Things didn't exactly end well between them back in high school, but as she gets to know Jesse again, Natalie realizes that she may have misjudged him all those years ago. Will Natalie and Jesse get a second chance at their first love, or will their relationship be canceled along with their parents' show?

Jesse and Natalie were super cute together and I really enjoyed their snarky banter. The problem was that they were opposites in a lot of ways, and that definitely created some problems for them to work through. For example, Jesse was a homebody who loved his life in Willow Springs, while Natalie couldn't wait to go and see the world, especially her beloved volcanoes. In the end, I think they found a good balance that would allow them both to do what they loved, and it was great fun cheering them on to their HEA.

I recommend "Faking Ever After" for all romantic comedy fans and look forward to the next book in the series.
