Pretending I Love Lucy by Julie Christianson
4.25
funny lighthearted medium-paced

Super cute fake dating/engagement read!

Fix (Felix Dodd III) comes to Apple Valley when he's called by Lucy after his Grandmother "disappears" from the library. A lot of people are worried about Gram's health. Then Grams tells Fix he needs to marry to access his trust fund. Fix knows that he wants to help people once he gets the funds and so behind a long journey of pretending..... That's he dating and then engaged to Lucy.

I absolutely adored Grams first off! She is such a character and I almost always knew her hidden agenda for her grandson. Lucy is so helpful to everyone. She's really sweet and always thinks of others first. I liked her arc in the story.

Everyone at the library worked their way into my heart! Fix and Lucy are so very understanding of each other and their relationship is sweet.
