Abbey Mitchell and Ted Thomas end up as neighbours, and they both put up a brave face each, trying to hide their own heartbreak and career problems. As they get to know each other better, they truly empathize and show support – Abbey needs a fake date for her parents’ vow renewal ceremony and Ted agrees to be her fake new boyfriend. Fake It ‘Til You Make It is a pleasant and funny rom-com novel that begins with a fast-paced first part, then has a slow-burn middle, but there is a high-stakes climax. For contemporary romance readers, this book would make a good weekend read.
