Synopsis

Hi, I’m Dee, and I’m captain of the friend zone. I didn’t ask for this dubious honor, but don’t worry, I like it this way. I’m happy not dating and just being “one of the guys” on my volleyball team. At least I was until my scary new boss informs me that my job—I’m a developer at a dating app (ironic, right?) that I coded from scratch, an app that is essentially my baby—is in jeopardy. So I lie—tell him that I’m living proof the app works, because I’m engaged to a man I met on it. And who do I name as my lucky (fake) fiancé? My best friend, Noah Jackson. Noah is my longtime confidant, teammate, and all around favorite person…and while he always says he’d do anything for me, this is surely overstepping the friendship boundary. Right? Apparently not. To my surprise, Noah agrees to go along with my crazy story and be my fake fiancé. And what’s more, he makes it look convincing—so convincing I’m starting to wonder where the line is between friendship and “more” and if it would really be so bad to cross that line and leave the friend zone for good…

Goodreads review by Danielle on January 08, 2024

This is a syrupy sweet small town, best friends to lovers, with a pinch of fake dating story. Dee and Noah have best friends their whole lives, Noah has been in love with Dee since they were teens and Dee has never had any interest in dating. When Dee's job is on the line she makes up a fake relation......more

Goodreads review by Tiffany on July 16, 2023

Kisses only. I liked the writing style just fine but the book was kinda boring and didn’t hold my interest. My two biggest issues with the book: 1.
