Borrow My Heart

By: Kasie West

Narrated by: Caitlin Kinnunen

When a girl overhears a guy getting verbally destroyed by his friends for being catfished, she jumps in to save the day—and pretends to be his online crush. A young adult romance from the critically acclaimed author of Places We've Never Been.

Wren is used to being called a control freak. She doesn’t care; sticking to the list of rules she created for herself helps her navigate life. But when a cute guy named Asher walks through the door of her neighborhood coffee shop, the rulebook goes out the window.

Asher is cute, charming . . . and being catfished by his online crush. So Wren makes an uncharacteristically impulsive decision—she pretends to be the girl he's waiting for to save him from embarrassment. Suddenly she’s fake-dating a boy she knows nothing about. And it’s . . . amazing.

It's not long before Asher has her breaking even more of her own rules. But will he forgive her when he finds out she's not who she says she is? Wren's not so sure. . . . After all, rules exist for a reason.

I love this book; it’s truly amazing. However, I wish the two characters had spent more time together in the shelter and that the timeline of events had been clearer. Love

good

story was so scattered and it felt really shallow and boring. not a personal favorite

Super cute

She always has the cutest books. I love them and the happy feels it comes with.

Maybe I’m too old for this book.

I have liked many of this authors past books but this one I didn’t love. I still gave it a 4 because I’m not sure if this just isn’t right for me and if someone else may have found it more relatable.

Super cute!

I really liked it! I’ve read a lot of Kasie West books so I was excited to see she had a new book!

The characters were lovable and relatable. I love that it’s not just a sappy love story. It has real problems like parents leaving, social media, ect. I also loved the pet parts of it.

Overall, it was a great read and encourage everyone to read it.
