I am pretty good at picking books I know I will like so it was no surprise that I loved reading Fake Fiance, Real Revenge.  Mitch was a good guy who had done well for himself in business but wound up having a little white lie backfire on him.  The basic story revolves around that little lie and what becomes of it.Mitch and Sabrina, the girl from the neighboring ranch had know one another since they were kids.  Mitch always thought he was not good enough for Sabrina and Sabrina has long harbored a rather large grudge for him having left her and ranching behind.  When he needs her help (10 years later) to save face from the little white lie, she has a price - or two - in mind.I really liked Mitch.  He was and all-around good guy who had flaws...love that kind of hero.  Sabrina, well, at times she seemed a bit on the mean side. I really thought she needed to drop the whole revenge bit and just follow her heart.  The backstory and the current story moved the plot along at a warm and comfortable pace and a good balance of the past and present.Overall, I thoroughly enjoyed the book.  I love contemporary cowboys stories and was thrilled to see Mitch and Sabrina work on overcoming their sticking points.  Their romance was tangible and tender with a good dose of steam to go along.  Now there was some language and sex, innuendo - Remember this is the Bliss line of books from Entangled.  I cannot wait to read Three River Ranch and His Reluctant Rancher, the other two books in the series thus far.  I can see how the books must interrelate but I understood this third book in the series just fine as a stand alone.  I would certainly consider reading this one again and encourage readers of contemporary romance, especially if you enjoy the small-town atmosphere and/or Cowboys, to try this one out.  You will be glad you did!**4.5 Stars****Note: I received this book in exchange for my honest, unbiased review.  All opinions are my own and no further compensation was received.
