The banter is cute, and Hazel (the kid) is well written. Kids in books aren’t usually my cup of tea, but I didn’t mind her. That being said, here are some of my thoughts:

1. Is it really fake dating if you’re basically already in a relationship without the labels beforehand? I mean come on. Farley was apart of his kid’s PTA. Going to this kid’s dance recitals. They had holiday traditions together for Christ’s sake. Also, we only got to see them “fake date” like twice then they were actually together.
2. You’re telling me Meyer “Stoic” Harrigan got on his hands and knees to beg for a dessert? I’ve never tried those s’more bars, but it still seems out of character
3. I know avoidant conflict style like the back of my hand (pot meet kettle), but ghosting Meyer after finding out about the contract seems a bit much (not that he shouldn’t have told her). But you couldn’t even pick them up at the airport, Farley? You sent an Uber? 👎🏼 
4. This is nit picky, but why does everyone need a nickname? My, Fee, Miss, Haze. Some people don’t have nicknames in real life, and that’s okay. 

Memorable quotes:

"It’s dumb.” 
“You’re many things, Jones. Dumb isn’t one of them”

“She looks me up and down, studying my face for something before she glances over my shoulder. “You don’t seem like a drunk or deadbeat,” she says.
“That’s nice. You very much do seem like you might be on…something”

“Is Meyer a flip flop man? Why does the idea of that kind of gross me out? Am I discovering a shallow prejudice of mine? An anti-foot fetish, if you will?"
