Never Fall for Your Fake Fiancé (especially not on Valentine's Day): A Sweet Fake Relationship Rom Com (It's Complicated Book 3) Kindle Edition

by Kate O'Keeffe (Author) Format: Kindle Edition
4.4 out of 5 stars 1,547 ratings
Valentine’s lesson: fake fiancés aren’t supposed to steal your heart.

Here’s the deal. I'm pretending to be engaged to James Brody, the sizzling hot London deputy mayor, to help him dodge playboy rumors. In return, I get to evade my mum's relentless matchmaking. Really, it’s the perfect cover, because while I’m wearing this fake engagement ring, I'm sneaking moments with my dream guy, Matt, who’s finally begun to notice me.

I should be thrilled. But the more I fake it with James, the more I love our phony dates and red carpet outings—and the less I like what I see in Matt.

And then there was that Valentine's kiss—fireworks, orchestra, the whole swoon-worthy deal.

I know it's just an act, and my head should be in charge. But what do I do when the fake starts feeling real, telling me my heart belongs to James?



Never Fall for Your Fake Fiancé is a laugh-out-loud, swoon-worthy rom com with a fake relationship, a totally swoony guy, and romance. As with all the books in the It’s Complicated series, this is a closed-door romance with some incredible kissing and all the feels. It is a full-length novel and can be read as a standalone story.

    This book is one of those books you cant put down. It has tons of swoony, hilarious, entertaining, adorable moments and banters. The Pinkerton House is quite an intriguing place. It's full of fascinating artifacts that I never thought would be part of a romcom storyline but they made the story more fun and intriguing to read. 

    Lottie's and James "fake" love story is one fun sweet and swoony story. James is such a dreamy, sweet and caring guy. Lottie is a quirky, sweet, and a bit gullible girl. They are two opposite strangers that created an amazing love story by just being themselves while faking it. Sometimes starting a relationship without all the pressure will help develop real feelings for the other person because you are more yourself.

    Their mothers were such clever and quirky characters that made this story so much more fun.  The ending is so heart melting and so swoony. I enjoyed this read from beginning til the end.

    I LOVED THIS BOOK!!! I think this is one of my favorite RomComs!! James and Lottie are such a likable couple! Lottie is quirky, funny, but also insecure and lets people walk all over her. James is a Deputy Mayor of London. He is self assured, kind, caring and pretty much the perfect guy. When the two come together they make the most beautiful, healthy and romantic relationship!!

    I would LOVE to see this as a movie!! Whether Netflix, Passionflix or the big screen, it would make a wonderful movie!! I’m gushing, but I really, really loved this book so much!! This will definitely be a book I read over and over!!

    Great story and perfect ending.
    Sometimes best friends need to be more open about their thoughts and feelings.
    It did bother me the guy so attending to her didn't notice all the crying with her Mom.
    And no conversations about why and discussing of breast cancer and warning signs or mammogram information.
    Though as a love story maybe too heavy of a topic to give much space to.

    I really enjoyed this book so much. It literally felt like I was watching a Romcom movie in book form and I couldn't help but picture James as Hugh Grant.

    This was fun, delightful, and I recommend this to anyone wanting an easy Valentine's Day romance.

    Never Fall for Your Fake Fiancé is a laugh-out-loud, swoon-worthy rom com with a fake relationship, a totally swoony guy, and romance..

    This book pays homage to most things British. Laughed out loud from the first few pages until end of book.

    The humor in this book is great. It's like silent thoughts that are not meant to spoken out loud but they are and really good.

    This was such a sweet, romantic read! I really adored Lottie as a heroine. She was so adorable, quirky and just seemed so real to me. James, his honorable hotness, was one of my favorite heroes and book boyfriend. He was so charming, handsome but most of all so good to sweet Lottie. This is my favorite out of this series so far.

    Time for James and Lottie's story! If you've enjoyed the previous books in this series and like a fake dating trope, then you might want to check this one out. Personally, I didn't like it as much as other books by the same author but plenty other readers loved it, so give it a go if it sounds like something you'd enjoy.

    Reviewed in the United Kingdom on February 19, 2022

    This was a very sweet story. Lottie is in love with her work colleague but he doesn't seem to notice her. Then she meets James and he asks about a fake engagement to help his public profile but which may also make her colleague jealous- so the plan is in motion!

    I loved the humour in this book, there are some really great lines, conversations and situations. The conversations that Lottie and James had really showed how much they enjoyed each others company as they got to know each other better.
    I was a little frustrated at Lottie by how much of a walk over she was, by more than one person, but she was very likeable.
    I enjoyed the ending, it was very fitting to the characters and the story.
    One thing that still puzzles me though...why was James in the museum in the first place?
