Romance Book Review!! ~ The Pretend Fiancé Fiasco (Copper Valley Bro Code Book 6) by Pippa Grant

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 wouldn’t go wrong to read both the Copper Valley Bro Code and Copper Valley Fireballs series, along with Dirty Talking Rival, to catch all of the easter eggs.

LOVED the story of Sloane and Davis! This was a bit of a romantic suspense, which I really enjoyed, with the same Pippa Grant humor I’ve come to appreciate.

Manbun, the missing Bro Code member, has been in and out of the stories and now he finally has his own and boy is it a doozy. This guy…he is absolutely swoon worthy. He’s stoic and overprotective and man, oh man, does he have secrets. Big secrets and it’s sweet little Sloane who gets them all.

And Sloane? The poor woman has endured a lot, starting with her awful grandmother and even worse exes. She’s stronger than she knows and it was a privilege watching her realize it. This story was entertaining, hilarious and so engaging I couldn’t put it down. And steamy? Oh yeah it was steamy in all the right places.

And Thorny Rock…OMG!
