3.4 starsDisclaimer: I received this book in exchange for an honest review.Julien Breaux is working hard as a MMA fighter and coach at his gym. One day, a writer approaches him with a question that will change his life. She asks him if she can write a romance novel with a main character based on him. He accepts, not anticipating the success of the book and all the attention it will bring him. Despite this fact, Julien remains humble and doesn't change, feeling like all the attention should be focused on the book and not him. After all the girls that have shown up at the gym where he works asking for him (or his fictional character), and saying they were his Nadine (his love interest in the book), it's not a surprise when another one shows up and this time she doesn't ask for him, but it's not only her name that matches the Nadine from the book. Weird things start happening, and it seems like the story from the book is happening in real life. How will Julien deal with it? Nadine hasn't read the book, will he tell her everything that happened? Why is this happening? These and many other questions were in my head while I was reading this book. I kept thinking that somewhere in the book there was going to be an explanation how that could be happening, especially in the beginning.When I read the blurb I was curious about this book and I was surprised because I usually prefer stories that can happen in real life and that don't have that magic, unexplainable, mysterious element. That being said, this book kept me turning pages and I really liked the main characters, especially Julien – he was so sweet! I felt like because the book existed, their relationship developed very quickly and I would have liked to be able to read more about them getting to know one another.It's a quick, interesting, sweet read.
