The Pretend Fiancé Fiasco

Copper Valley Bro Code, Book 6

By: Pippa Grant

Narrated by: Teddy Hamilton, CJ Bloom, Ava Erickson

A reclusive former celebrity, a recovering good girl, and small town trouble...

It started as a joke. After a string of bad boyfriends, I made up a fake boyfriend so people would quit asking when I was going to meet a grumpy lumberjack trying to save his mama’s inn in my adopted hometown.

When my grandma demanded proof from afar, I sent her a picture of me and my “boyfriend.”

Spoiler alert: He wasn’t really my boyfriend.

He was actually a reclusive former boy band member who swings through town sometimes and is friends with my friends.

As much as a reclusive former boy bander can be friends with anyone, that is.

He doesn’t know I told anyone he’s my boyfriend. Or that his name is Steve. Or that my grandma judges him by his tattoos and manbun.

So when Grandma sends the guy she’d rather me marry to town to make sure “Steve” is good enough for me—and to talk me into marrying him instead—I have something of a problem.

But I got myself into this mess, so I’ll get myself out.

By proposing.

Relax, relax, I’m proposing a fake wedding.

And when he turns me down, I can say we broke up.

Except he doesn’t turn me down.

Instead, he offers me a trade.

He’ll pretend to be my groom, but I have to do something for him in return.

And that something?

Hoooo, boy.

I liked the man better when he was my pretend boyfriend Steve.

The Pretend Fiancé Fiasco is an action-packed romcom featuring the reclusive final member of the boy band Bro Code, a recovering good girl with too many men interested in her for all the wrong reasons, a treasure hunt, a fake engagement, and the best surprise to hit the Copper Valley universe since the Fireballs’ new mascot was revealed. This small town romantic comedy stands alone, but you won’t go wrong to listen to both the Copper Valley Bro Code series and the Copper Valley Fireballs series to catch all of the easter eggs.

The humor.

I laughed so much with this story. Cute and a little thrilling. Nice way to wrap up the overall friendship story lines.

Loved it!

I love this series and book 6 was well worth the wait. Davis and Sloan were so much fun. Lots of laughs and fun with what you would expect from a Copper Valley book with hidden surprises. Sloan gets it all started with a little fib and Davis surprises her by playing along. The Bro Code band member has been hiding away but Sloan will change that. Just a fun story.

Teddy Hamilton, CJ Bloom, and Ava Erickson were great to listen to. I highly recommend this book.

So fun

As per usual: this was so fun! Pippa’s spectacular. Sloane and David are grumpy/sunshine and completely adorable. I swooned, I gasped, I kept guessing what would happen next and wound up being wildly wrong. Sad to say goodbye to this series! Open door, 🌶️🌶️.5.

Perfect end to a series

I couldn’t think of a better ending to this series. Read this series in order. The narration was very good.

The Pretend Fiancé Fiasco !!!

Davis Remington, ex bro code band member, and Sloane Pearce, nurse and museum curator, are a fake fiancé match made in heaven ! Nothing is going to stand in the way of these two finally figuring out what really happened in Shippwrecked/Copper Valley and where the pirate treasure is hidden . All while having the most sizzling chemistry, laugh out loud moments, and a secret stalker that is making their lives very difficult .

I absolutely loved this book and it was such a perfect ending to the Copper Valley Bro Code series and everything this small, charming pirate town has to offer . I cannot wait to see where Pippa takes us next !

This is the sixth and final book in the Copper Valley Bro Code series + it can be read as a complete stand alone . Although I highly recommend listening to all of this series first, along with the Cooper Valley Fireballs series so you have a complete picture and understand where all the characters come from .

This book was given to me for honest review by the author .
