We've all had a crush on someone in our life and Brynn is no exception. She was awkward in her high school days and of course found herself crushing on the football player who didn't even look her way. So when she finally got the nerve to talk to him and ask him to prom she's crushed when he blows her off. Almost a decade later and not only is Sawyer back in town but he's now the director of the play she's in. He has no idea who she is and not wanting to be that girl anymore she decides to pretend to be someone else. Pretty soon Brynn finds herself caught in her web of lies.I really liked Falling For Her Fiancee and was really excited to start this one but I wasn't able to fully immerse myself in the story. I found Brynn's character really immature. Instead of confessing who she is, she plays along that she's some actress from Los Angeles. She then decides to practice her flirting on Sawyer. Meanwhile, she's cursing him in her head for the way he ignored her in high school. I just felt like she held her grudge against him a bit too long. Not only that but she ran so hot and cold when it came to him that I just couldn't keep track.I did like Sawyer's character though. It wasn't that he was outright rude to Brynn as a teen. He just didn't pay her any mind. At the time his father was dying and he was dealing with a lot of stuff at home that he sort of wasn't really that into all the high school stuff.I liked that they lived in a small town. So everyone knows everyone. It was hard for Brynn to keep her secret around Sawyer but somehow she managed to keep her real life separate. If Brynn didn't hold such a grudge against Sawyer throughout the entire book, I think I would've enjoyed this story a bit much but I just wasn't a fan of the main character.
