Let me just say — none of this was supposed to happen.
I didn’t expect the letter to go viral. I didn’t think anyone would figure out who Dear Sexy Ex was. And I especially never thought he would find out about it.
Yeah, bit of a miscalculation there.
But see, I need the money to fund my brand new venture. And Dear Sexy Ex, well, it turns out he needs me to save his business.
By becoming his fake fiancée.
Yup, that’s the pickle I find myself in — pretending to be madly in love with the charming, brilliant, and utterly infuriating man known as Dear Sexy Ex.
Only, it’s not an act. And he can never know.

Review
4.5 stars!!
Dear Sexy Ex-Boyfriend is so much fun and totally not what I expected. A little misunderstanding leads Summer and Oliver on a ride of their lives in the fake fiancée, friends-to-lovers rom com. It’s adorable, funny, full of so much heart, and it lacks any over the top drama. Get ready for laughs galore and sweet swoony moments as these two cross lines and navigate a relationship they never saw coming.
Summer and Oliver have been best friends for years. They have been there for each other through all the ups and downs of life, and their friendship means everything to them. When Summer writes a letter for a contest that turns out to negatively impact Oliver’s business, she’s willing to do anything to make things right, including becoming his fake fiancée.
I loved this story and I loved Summer and Oliver. Their friendship is really special and the banter is fantastic. They have fun when they are together and always help each other out, so when Oliver needs a big favor there was never any question whether or not Summer would do it. What they don’t expect is the more they pretend to be in a relationship, the more it becomes real.
Summer and Oliver have great chemistry and I loved the progression from friends to lovers. It’s slower building because they don’t want to mess up what they have but there is no denying their attraction. The sexual tension builds the more they are together and each kiss made me giddy. I couldn’t wait for them to just go for it, and when they do, it’s passionate and intense and so good.
Now that it’s only us, I’m learning it was never pretend for me. That I was only fooling myself. Because every time, I felt something.
Something unexpected.
Something that surprised me.
It’s scary to fall for your best friend and I thought Summer and Oliver’s story was really well done for a friends-to-lovers romance. I loved that their feelings were real and their hesitation to become more was relatable. The lack of drama was refreshing and made for a lighter read with tons of laughs, especially when the story took some hilarious turns. I also loved the secondary characters in the story and am excited that Logan, Summer’s brother, and Fitz, Oliver’s friend, will each star in their own books.
Overall, Dear Sexy Ex-Boyfriend is a delightful read and a wonderful start to the new rom com series, The Guys Who Got Away. I can’t wait for more!! Logan’s book, The What If Guy, is coming soon!
