Faking My Fall Crush

Seasonal Singles

By: Michelle Cornish

Narrated by: Sally Barron

It’s all fun and games...until it’s not....

Felicia Ellway has always had a flair for the dramatic. So when her friend Kit dares Felicia to tell her family she’s engaged, she doesn’t flinch. But when her family books the next flight to see her, she’s scrambling for a plan.

To continue her lie, Felicia convinces her best friend, Marshall Jackson, to act as her fiancé for the weekend. Marshall would do anything for Felicia - even buy her a real diamond.

When Marshall sees Felicia’s walls start to crumble, as they spend the weekend together as a couple, he enlists the help of Felicia’s little brother to win her heart for real.

Will Marshall find the courage to tell Felicia how he truly feels, or will he let Felicia’s facade continue?

Standalone in the Seasonal Singles series

This was a cute, clean romance read / listen. I really enjoyed the overall storyline, it flowed smoothly and was easy to follow. Some of it was a bit sudden but overall, I thought this was a well written best friends romance. Sweet with no steam. Our main characters are Marshall and Felicia and the story is told from Felicia's point of view. I liked that their friendship was firmly in place, and they already had a routine. I thought there was a lot of extra descriptions or characters that didn't necessarily serve a purpose. Narration was good but I think could have been better with dual narration. There were times that the vocals seemed stilted but overall, not bad. I think this was a cute and sweet listen - good but not great. There were areas that more humor or conversational dynamics could have added more punch. I liked the small town feel and the festival vibe for this season. I'm looking forward to the other seasonal books in this series.

This book was given to me for free at my request and I voluntarily provided this review.

MY FALL CRUSH

A FUN ROM COM ROMANCE FOR THE AUTUMN OR ANY TIME OF THE YEAR! NARRATION WAS WONDERING!

Cute story!

Felicia Ellway's mother has been calling her all day, but she has no desire to listen to her mother tell her how happy her married cousin is. Her roommate, Kit, suggests that she fake an engagement, just to get her mom off her back. Felicia's best friend since forever is Marshall Jackson. He works at the bakery and has been in love with Felicia since they met, making him the prime candidate as Felicia's fiance. They do their job so convincingly that it only takes a short while before they both understand that it's not fake, it's forever.
Sally Barron does a wonderful job with the narration. Her voice is well-modulated and lively, and she sounds as if she's having a good time as she reads.
