Description
Finley Blankenship is tired of always coming up short.
When her long time boyfriend dumps her because he isn’t ready to commit, only to announce his engagement to someone else months later, she’s had it. So when her now ex comes to her flower shop to check how she’s doing after hearing the news, she lies and tells him she’s moved on. Only for her brother’s best friend to walk in at the same time and get roped into her story. Committed to playing the part, she reluctantly agrees to pretend to be in a relationship with the one man in their small town that would never actually date her.
Grey Sutton has been in love with Finley for fifteen years, but he’s never thought he had a chance.
After all, he’s an honorary member of the Blankenship family because his own is so dysfunctional. He has no idea how to give Finley what she wants. Especially since he was offered a job out of state, and Finley is as rooted in this town as the trees.
But as their relationship starts to feel less and less like a charade, it leaves them with more uncertainty than ever. Lines start to blur, and Grey and Finley have to decide if they’re willing to risk their hearts to have everything they’ve ever dreamed of.

This book was pure happiness & sunshine & just made me smile from ear to ear the entire time + it was so dang swoony! It was so fun to be back in Fontana Ridge & this time with Finley & Grey (who is definitely my new fav of Madison Wrights dreamy guys). This one also felt like it was for the book lovers + the dreamers & I know I won't stop thinking about it for quite a while.
If you love any of the following, put this one on your list:
-brother's best friend + best friend's little sister
-fake dating
-she thinks he's a player but really he's been pining for her all along
-he takes care of her when she's not feeling great
-found family
-"there's only one woman I've ever wanted"
And I love all the glimpses of Wren + Holden (one in particular made me laugh out loud). Safe to say Madison has done it again & I absolutely adored this one! Put it on your list because you are gonna wanna fall in love with Grey as much as I did.

FinleyGrey, the huge serve you were!
I have been waiting for them ever since the first book in this series came out. Their crumbs got me immediately and their story didn't disappont.
I liked their development romantically but also their individual growth. Especially Finley who had a beautiful character development in this one and I was rooting so much for her.
Grey is literally the sweetest ray of sunshine and the way he has always loved and suppprted Finley was adorable.
I cannot recommend this author and this series enough!
*arc kindly provided in exchange of an honest review
Just when I thought Madison couldn’t top Wren and Holden, Grey and Finley came sneaking up on me.
Mad’s books perfectly encapsulate the sweet, wholesome, feel-good romance every hopeless romantic dreams of. OIYD is no different, in fact, I feel like she hits a new level.
Grey is so hopelessly gone for Finley from page one (and even before😉), which has you begging for time to speed up for him to tell her, while also having you hoping time slows down just to listen to him gush about her a little more
Finley is sunshine personified, the most perfect example of sweet, small-town charm. The way she loves every person so wholeheartedly, wearing her heart on her sleeve to show she cares, it’s not hard at all to see why Grey fell for her as quickly as he did.
And all the aspects of this book that make it the absolutely perfect romcom that it is… the tattoo?? the rodeo?? the trip to Maine?? the epilogue?? I binged the last 90 pages last night and now I’m so so sad that it’s over. I can’t wait to read it a million times over again.
Thank you Madison and NetGalley for the opportunity to read this ARC
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️/5
I am SOLD on Madison and her writing from here on out. She is definitely on my top FIVE which is hard to come by, but she is so deserving! This book had me laughing out LOUD and also blushing. Also, who doesn’t love a brother’s best friend trope? Fin + Grey were like reading all of my favorite rom com movie’s in one. I ate this up and finished in under 24 hours bc it’s truly that perfect. If you haven’t read her books, you’re missing out!! ✨🤍🥹 I will now be binging the rest of them.
Thank you NetGalley, Madison and Victory Editing for this ARC copy in exchange for my honest review 🫶🏻
“I’m so damn gone for her that I’ll take even that little slice if it’s all she’ll ever give me.”
Madison never fails to make me a sobbing mess and she’s done it again. Only in Your Dreams is tender, sweet, funny, and full of hope. I could’ve posted the full 20 image limit with the number of quotes I have highlighted.
✨Finley is lighthearted and vulnerable. After being dumped by her the guy she thought was her forever, she fears that she’ll never be enough. I think we’ve all had moments where we feel this way. I loved watching her character develop. She spontaneously decides to fake date Grey and he’s nothing but happy about it. She can’t stop her childhood crush from roaring back.
✨Grey. Grey. Grey. I am in a puddle just saying that. He is a firefighter and is struggling with trying to figure out what he wants to do with this life. He has always been in love with Finley, but she’s his best friend’s sister. He doesn’t have the best relationship with his family, and Holden has always been family to him. When Finley slips that she said they were dating, he can only hope there is a chance for something more.
“I feel alone,” I whisper
“I’m here. I’m not going anywhere.”
✨Finley and Grey have a pure love for each other. Even just as friends, they knew they could count on each other. There were so many swoon worthy moments between them. He takes care of her multiple times. She sticks up for him. I loved that Grey would help remind Fin just how special she was. Ugh I just love them.
“She looks like every dream I’ve ever had, and it makes my throat tight. I want to wake up like this every single morning for the rest of my life.”
Only in Your Dreams has:
💜 Brother’s best friend
🚒 Firefighter
💐 Florist
🧢 “Sweetheart.”
🍫 Small town
💛 Fake dating
🎡 Found family
📚 He takes care of her
💙 He falls first
Ps, it releases on September 27th!
Pps, if you loved Holden and Wren from Off the Beaten Path, they’re in this one as well. I’m loving the found family trope and getting to see snippets of the characters in each book.
Thank you so much @authormadisonwright and Victory Editing for the ARC! 🫶🏼
