Get ready for your next favorite romantic comedy, The Real Deal, from #1 New York Times bestselling author Lauren Blakely
April Hamilton wants you to know she hasn't been on GigsForHire since that time she sold her futon after college. She doesn't even spend that much time online. And even if she did, she would not be looking up personal ads. But going home alone for her family's summer reunion is an invitation for every single relative to butt into her personal life. She simply can't handle another blind date with the butcher, the baker or the candlestick maker from her hometown. So when she finds the GigsforHire ad for a boyfriend-for-hire, she's ready to pay to play. Heading Home and Need a Buffer? I'm the REAL DEAL.Theo Banks has been running from the past for years. He's this close to finally settling all his debts, and one more job as a boyfriend-for-hire will do the trick. He's no gigolo. Please. He's something of an actor, and he knows how to slip into any role, including pretending to be April's new beau -- the bad boy with the heart of gold. Even if it means sleeping in close quarters in that tiny little bed in her parents' inn. Even if it means spinning tales of a romance that starts to feel all too true. What neither one of them counts on is that amid the egg toss, the arm wrestling, and a fierce game of Lawn Twister that has them tangled up together, they might be feeling the real deal. She only wanted to show her family once and for all that she had no need to settle down. He didn't expect to have the time of his life at her parents' home. They didn't plan on loving every single second of the game. But can a masterful game of pretend result in true love?

Smooth Operation
This Fan has exceptional airflow and operates smoothly. I use the included remote control. It took a little white to install and it’s fairly heavy, but besides that, it’s great.

Not forced or rushed
Format: Hardcover
I really liked this book. Hannah & Garrett’s story starts off like a typical smart girl tutors the jock to help him get though a class in college. But their stories are traumatic and the things that they have both had to overcome make this book so much more than your typical tutor/jock story. Garrett is sweet, cocky, funny and helps bring Hannah out of her shell in a refreshing way. Hannah is not meek or mild or quiet, she is strong because of her past but still a little unsure. Together their chemistry is hot and their relationship just sort of naturally unfolds. I really loved that it didn’t seem forced or rushed, it just happened as it should. Garrett’s story in particular hit very close for me so maybe that is why I felt connected to these characters so much. I am really looking forward to reading the rest of the series.

The Hype Train Goes 🚂
Format: Kindle
4.5⭐️ | 4🌶️ | 4🎧
I genuinely enjoyed this book! It’s been sitting on my TBR for ages, and with all the buzz surrounding it lately, I finally decided to hop on the hype train. Thankfully, this one absolutely delivered.
What surprised me most was how much depth this story had. Beneath the humor, hockey, and romance are some pretty heavy topics, and I thought Elle Kennedy handled them with a lot of care. Hannah’s journey in particular felt incredibly authentic, and I appreciated how thoughtfully the book approached her past trauma. This story felt like a safe space for survivors, never minimizing what she experienced while still allowing her healing and growth to shine through.
Garrett and Hannah were such a fun couple to follow. Their banter was hilarious, their chemistry was undeniable, and their relationship developed in a way that kept me completely invested. I loved watching them challenge each other, support each other, and slowly become exactly what the other person needed. The romance was sweet, the spice delivered, and the emotional moments hit when they needed to.
As a hockey fan, I also loved the sports aspect of the story. Hockey is one of the few sports I actually watch, so those scenes were especially enjoyable for me. But more than anything, I adored the sense of found family throughout the book. The friendships and team dynamics added so much heart and made the world feel lived in and welcoming.
The audiobook was solid overall. Christian Fox and Lorelei Avalon did a good job bringing the characters to life. Christian Fox was a standout for me, while Lorelei Avalon occasionally sounded a little robotic during certain scenes. It wasn’t enough to take away from my enjoyment, but it was distracting at times.
Overall, I can definitely see why so many readers love this book. It’s funny, emotional, spicy, and full of heart. I’m excited to continue with the rest of the series and spend more time with this group of characters! 💕⛸️🏒
