4.5 starsOnce again, Madsen delivers a witty and sweet romance! I really enjoyed getting to know Brynn and Sawyer. Act Like You Love Me made me laugh and swoon. The perfect recipe for a light-hearted contemporary romance!Unlike Dani and Wes, Brynn and Sawyer were not friends. Well...they didn't start out that way. They knew each other in high school. Or I should say that Brynn had a huge crush on Sawyer, but he didn't really know who she was in high school. Now, Sawyer's back in town acting as the director for the local town theater production and fixing up his father's lake house to sell. Brynn is an actress, so their paths cross once again. But, Sawyer doesn't recognize Brynn and she doesn't point out who she is either. See...Sawyer is flirting with her and giving her the attention she always wanted, so she's not quite willing to give up the truth. As they spend more time together, the truth becomes harder for Brynn to hide. Also, Sawyer is planning to go back to New York, so their time together is limited.As you can imagine, once the truth comes out...feelings are hurt and trust is tested. However, the fact remains that Brynn and Sawyer have fallen for each other. So, I think it came down to the simple matter of, was Sawyer willing to throw away his forever over a white lie. Because, I really think that Brynn was just scared to tell him who she was. She had been hurt by him in high school. Granted, he didn't know it, but still. In my mind, the score was even. I did enjoy watching them fall in love. They are a sweet couple.Overall, I really enjoyed Act Like You Love Me. Like most of the Bliss books I've read, I had a smile on my face the entire time  I read this. I look forward to seeing who the next book is about. I have my fingers crossed that it will be the hunky cop! If you enjoy quick, sweet romances, definitely check this one out!Quote:"And I randomly break into song, and often quote lines from classic literature and plays in normal conversations.""I need more culture in my life.
