Act Like You Love Me was a perfect summer romance. From the very beginning, its easy to tell that Brynn and Sawyer will make a great couple if Brynn could get over their secret past. I absolutely adored reading about them and have officially resolved to read everything that Cindi Madsen ever rights--it was that good!  I really enjoyed the characters. Brynn actually reminded me of one of my friends, and while I was a little put off by her lies I did forgive her since she kind of got herself stuck in a hole. As great as Brynn was though, she was a bit dense and insecure. I would have loved to see her be more confident in herself,  but her refusal to be herself did make for an entertaining story. Sawyer was also great. He was the perfect hero for Brynn--sweet and charming, but also somewhat tortured and reluctant to commit. He was exactly what the story needed. The plot really centered around the love story, so there wasn't a ton of action involved. It was just a sweet, romantic story about a girl who refused to fall in love and a boy who really wanted to, but was a bit reluctant. Given the "lying" situation, there were plenty of funny scenes where I really loved seeing how Brynn was going to deal with her circumstances.Reading about Sawyer and Brynn was an absolute joy and I can't wait to dive into more of Madsen's stories. Act Like You Love Me is a wonderful contemporary love story for summer and extremely hard to put down.
