Jen DeLuca
A pretend relationship gives two friends more than they bargained for in a Renaissance Faire rom com filled with flower crowns, kilts, corsets, and sword fights.Single mother April Parker has lived in Willow Creek for twelve years with a wall around her heart. On the verge of being an empty nester, she’s decided to move on from her quaint little town, and asks her friend Mitch for his help with some home improvement projects to get her house ready to sell. Mitch Malone is known for being the life of every party, but mostly for the attire he wears to the local Renaissance Faire—a kilt (and not much else) that shows off his muscled form to perfection. While he agrees to help April, he needs a favor too: she'll pretend to be his girlfriend at an upcoming family dinner, so that he can avoid the lectures about settling down and having a more “serious” career than high school coach and gym teacher. April reluctantly agrees, but when dinner turns into a weekend trip, it becomes hard to tell what's real and what's been just for show. But when the weekend ends, so must their fake relationship. As summer begins, Faire returns to Willow Creek, and April volunteers for the first time. When Mitch's family shows up unexpectedly, April pretends to be Mitch's girlfriend again...and it doesn't feel so fake anymore. Despite their obvious connection, April insists they’ve just been putting on an act. But when there’s the chance for something real, she has to decide whether to change her plans—and open her heart—for the kilt-wearing hunk who might just be the love of her life.

"The way DeLuca describes this woman’s social anxiety is on point. It is a well written romance but I just can’t get over April’s character; never had I related to a character so much in my life. I love the way April’s character is developed throughout the series and I find myself rooting for her ever step of the way. "

"This book and the previous two books in the series are just so charming! I absolutely love the Renaissance faire setting and how all the books are connected. I was so excited to read about April and Mitch. Jen DeLuca writes characters that you quickly grow to love and care about. If you haven’t already, do yourself a favor and read this book series! "

"I liked this one better than #2, though it still didn’t quite hit the mark for me like Well Met did. I think Mitch and April’s story together was great and they fit together nicely, but this one didn’t feel as original as the first one. Which, to be fair I guess is expected as it’s the third in a series…<br/><br/>There were lots of cliches in this, ones that are overdone and I was hoping for more of the uniqueness I saw in Well Met. <br/><br/>Still, the characters this round were stronger, their stories held more weight, and overall I enjoyed it."
