Confirmed bachelor Max Sterling isn't into rescuing damsels in
distress, but when the very tempting Hailey Ellison needs his help, there's
only one thing for him to do. Step in and pose as her loving fiancé. Except
there is nothing fake about his attraction to her, or how much he wants her
beneath him in his bed, moaning his name. But what starts as a sexy, flirty,
temporary engagement, quickly becomes something more serious that neither one
ever anticipated.

Liza’s Review:
Faking It is the 2nd book in the Book
Boyfriend series from Carly Phillips and Erika Wilde. Seriously two of my
absolute favorite authors teaming up to give me book heaven once again. I loved
everything about Max and Hailey's story.
I absolutely fell in love with Max
Sterling as I read more and more of Faking
It. He is such a sexy and strong hero. He actually looks at people and sees
them for more than what is on the outside. I loved how much he cared for and
wanted Hailey pretty much from the moment they met. I also loved how attracted
Hailey was to Max from the moment they met. So much so that he was on her mind
when they were away from one another. I adored Hailey and Max as a couple.
Their attractions was off the charts hot and Max helped Hailey see herself the
way he saw her.
The fake engagement between Max and
Hailey was destined to be real pretty much from the moment they agreed to it.
Max and Hailey both liked each other as individuals, but needed help for
personal reasons and business reasons. Max wanted to get away from stalker
Addison, who was a family friend who wouldn't take no for an answer and Hailey
is a successful matchmaker with no boyfriend. Max and Hailey worked on every
level as a couple for me. Max took things slowly to earn Hailey's trust and
Hailey became so much happier and stronger for having Max in her life first as
a friend and then a lover.
Faking It was one of
those books I wanted to re-read as soon as I finished reading it the first
time. In fact, I've already read it twice and loved it just as much on the
second reading. Carly Phillips and Erika Wilde give their readers characters to
fall in love with and feel like you could be friends with as well. I highly
recommend Faking It to all lovers of contemporary romances.

Nikki’s Review:
Two very talented authors made
another book baby! I love when Carly Phillips and Erika Wilde put their
phenomenal writing skills together and make perfection happen!
This book was pure fun. It's one of
those books that keeps you smiling while getting lost in the romance. And the
romance is blistering hot!
Max and Hailey are incredibly
likeable characters. They are both genuinely nice people. Max is all hunky and
smouldering bedroom eyes. Hailey is the nice girl next door with a healthy dose
of body insecurities. I think a lot of women can relate to Hailey's issues.
She's hard on herself regarding her size. She's healthy and beautiful, but all
she's able to see is her perceived "flaws". Just like a lot of women,
she's her own worst critic. Max thinks she's the cats ass! He wants her
something fierce!
These two are faking an engagement.
Emotions aren't suppose to come into play...ha! The heart wants what the heart
wants! And so does the body!
I really adored these two together.
They have chemistry that just leaps off of the page. The love scenes in this
book are both romantic and wickedly spicy! I love me some spice!
I can always count on Ms. Phillips
and Ms. Wilde to write a solid story. And like all the other books, I wasn't
disappointed with this one. The plot sucked me in and kept my attention until
the very end. I laughed, I was angry, and my heart fluttered. All the emotions
were in this one. The writing is nothing short of wonderful!
How these two authors keep coming up
with storylines that stay fresh and entertaining is a wonder. Each book they
write together gets better and better. As always, it was a true pleasure to
spend time in the "world" they have created. You should totally read
this book!
