This will be the book I tell everyone to read in December! It's the kind of romcom I can picture perfectly as a movie, filled with chaos, fun larger-than-life characters, and a romance you will root for. This had the exact right amounts of pure chaos and a lot of heart, and I had the best time reading it. It was exactly what I needed today.

i had a really great time with this one! i love anything set in small lakeside towns. the added layers of the family drama, past rivalry, and winter games really brought this world to life.

this is for you if you love:
✅ fake dating
✅ childhood friends-to-enemies-to-fake-dating-to-maybe-we-actually-like-each-other?-to-oh-shit-we-do-like-each-other-to-lovers
✅ fun family dynamics

the romance is sweet, the family rivalry is a lot of fun, and i really enjoyed a lot of the themes of forgiveness, moving on, and coming together as a family.

Caught in a Bad Fauxmance was as sweet as tres leches cake. I loved every second of reading this fantastic debut. The characters are hilarious and full of heart, the chemistry between Devin and Julian is undeniable, and I think we can all agree the enemies to lovers trope is elite. Rose delivers the goods with Caught in a Bad Fauxmance and I cannot wait to see what else she has up her sleeve.

CAUGHT IN A BAD FAUXMANCE is a delightfully chaotic queer romcom. I had the best time reading it and crying over broccoli (which will make sense to you once you’ve read it. And, like, you totally should!)
