Review

Erika just wants to fit in with her friends as they are always going on and on about having boyfriends and one day she decides to make up her own. Little did she know that she would have to prove that she has a boyfriend and when forced to prove it she takes some random guys picture. How did she know he went to the same school. What's a girl to do now but ask him to be her boyfriend and shocking he agrees to pretend but he's not going to let her off easy. 

I like Erika she's easy to relate to I feel like any of us would have done the same thing she did in order to fit in. However, I would have made sure the guy I was pretended to date didn't go to my school. I was so conflicted about Kyoya but the more we learn about him the more I'm starting to like him. He has some redeemable qualities. 

I've had this one on my TBR list since I read a blog post about it ages ago. It's only recently started being published in English so I had to snap up the first two in the series as we wait for the third installment. I devoured both installments in one afternoon and I enjoyed them. It's a fast paced story that kept me turning each page wanting to know what will happen next. 

I have high hopes for this odd friendship turning into more than just pretending. It feels very slow burn which is my favorite kind of romance. That artwork is beautifully done and very detailed the author has done a lovely job creating a captivating story. I'm looking forward to checking out more of the authors works as I wait for the next in the series to come out. Highly recommend if you like romance manga.
