This Time It's Real by Ann Liang

5.0

Ann Liang is officially added in my list of auto-buy authors after reading (and enjoying) This time it's Real!

I liked how this one felt balanced when it comes to writing about romance because falling in love is not always magical and grandiose but is also disappointing - how it's not always experiencing butterflies in your stomach but is also about fending off fear and delusions when one of you is at your worst.

The chemistry between Eliza (loner writer girl) and Caz (popular celebrity actor) may have been rocky at first but the way they navigated the entire fake dating scheme is just too swoonworthy. 4.5stars!
