Entangled Teen Crush
Level-headed, book-smart Edelweiss may have traveled the
world thanks to her dad’s job, but when it comes to friends and boys, she knows
exactly nothing. Newly enrolled in boarding school, Edel is now on a mission to
learn it all. James says he’ll help her experience the ultimate high school
life—if she’ll be his fake girlfriend. And fake is perfect, because he’s
exactly the kind of player she’d never date.
Disclaimer: This Entangled Teen Crush book contains red-hot
romance, all the feels, and a soul-mate bad boy.
Edel wants the whole high school experience after being home schooled all her life. James just wants to make it to graduation without his father ripping him out of school for another prank gone wrong. Together they team up to help the other out. What neither expected was for feelings to develop and blur the lines between fictitious and reality. Will they be able to pull this relationship off? Or will one of them be sent packing?
I absolutely love reading books that revolve around a fake something or another. Especially fake boyfriend/girlfriend. There is so much good that could come from this circumstance and so much that could go wrong with it as well. Charles did a great job playing on all the wrongs and rights that seemed to explode from such a little white lie. I happily devoured every ounce of this read. I couldn’t get enough.
There were some parts concerning a few characters and how they all tie together that seemed too convenient for the plot, almost like the author was reaching in those areas to make it work. I sort of wished the author had left it out because it made the story come off as unbelievable. At least to me. That seemed to be my only fault with the book.
IT HAD TO BE YOU was such a cute, quick read that held my attention the whole time. I would love to see if there would be more stories to emerge from some of the other cast of characters. 4 Stars!
