Talia Hibbert
New York Times bestselling author Talia Hibbert returns with this spicy, fake-dating romcom... He’s in love. She’s faking it. Footballing legend Nik Christou leads a charmed life. Rich, successful, and internationally adored, no woman (or man) has ever rejected him—until a tattooed goddess blows his mind and captures his heart with just one kiss. Distrustful of men and disdainful of love, Aria Granger’s tongue is as sharp as her winged eyeliner. She knows from experience that Nik, like any smoking-hot himbo with bags of cash, is too good to be true—so she’s determined to send this walking temptation packing. Fortunately, Nik’s devised the perfect strategy to win his woman… Step 1: Offer her an obscene amount of money to be his fake girlfriend. Step 2: Whisk her away to a lavish Spanish villa—under the watchful eye of his entire team. Step 3: Figure out, between all the fake flirtation and phoney PDA, how to make her love him back. What could possibly go wrong? The Fake Boyfriend Fiasco was previously published as Sweet on the Greek. This version has been somewhat edited, but never fear: it still features a chaotic hero who falls first (and hard), a grumpy, tattooed heroine, and a team of underworked, overpaid, and incredibly nosy sports stars.

"Hibbert delivers her usual witty and hilarious characters, both main and side. Even though I'm not usually into Insta-love or fake dating tropes, I enjoyed this book because the characters were so well-done.
Nik was sweet and understanding, making him a great boyfriend, though it was a bit odd how obsessed he was with Aria from the start and the elaborate plan he came up with to win her over. He was also struggling to find his passion after his soccer career ended. Aria was relatable, dealing with guilt over her friend’s kidnapping and a deep desire to be loved, which led to some poor relationship choices.
Both characters had solid development—Nik found a new direction in life, and Aria realized she deserved love and could give it in return. Their romance was well-balanced, with matching humor and mutual respect. The book had a sexy, tension-filled, and introspective atmosphere, with high spice levels.
The writing was especially descriptive when it came to the characters' feelings. If you like golden retriever boyfriends, fake dating, and spicy reads, you'll enjoy this one!"
