BLURB: What’s a movie star to do when giving up the spotlight could hurt the ones he loves most?

My agent has this idea—an insanely bad idea—to reboot my Hollywood heartthrob status by having my long-lost love dump me … while I’m proposing to her on national TV.

The theory? Women everywhere will swoon over poor Lincoln James, scrambling to repair his vulnerable, shattered heart.

Trouble is, I don’t have any kind of love—long, lost, or otherwise.

To play my fake girlfriend, my agent enlists Hadley Morgan, my secret college crush. The one who dragged me to an audition that launched my career but left her in the dust.

Upping the ante, she offers Hadley a slot on the show she missed out on years ago. When the alternative publicity ploy is for reporters to dig up dirt on my family, I’ve got no choice but to go along with the ruse.

That’s why I’m in Harvest Hollow now—as one half of the dream couple HadLink—at least until Hadley explodes our relationship during a very public proposal.

Our breakup’s built into this deal. Too bad I’ve got real love for this woman.

But if I come clean, I risk Hadley’s big break, my family’s painful past, and my own rebooted heart …

MY REVIEW:Not of fan of all the innuendo and “dirty” jokes. It seems like they are in every conversation. It was distasteful.
Dexter and Sayla were fun MCs. They each had difficult situations they had been through which shaped them into being islands, never letting anyone in too close or fully in. It was lovely to see them grow closer together and watch their walls crumble down as their relationship progressed. There were some moments that were so sweet I get the way Sayla is but also I kinda hated it, you both are in love with each other, it’s ok!!
I loved the side characters so much also, especially Loren and Bridge, and Hildy and Bob!
Overall this was a fun read but it felt distasteful with all the innuendo and icky jokes. It walks directly on the line between being clean and being too much and for that I don’t love it.

: 1x h*ll,
: innuendo, steamy kisses

OVERVIEW: When the stakes are win, lose, or fall … and love is not in their lesson plan.

Sayla Kroft has only two goals this year:

1. Score the big district grant to rebuild her high school’s dilapidated theater.
2. Avoid Dexter Michaels, the flirty-flirt athletic director who wants those same funds for the gym.

Losing to her workplace enemy—again—is not on Sayla’s never-ending to-do list. Neither is being trapped with her maddening coworker at a professional retreat.

Or noticing his relentlessly crooked smile is actually kind of … hot.

But just as she’s beginning to believe Dex might not be the devil himself, the two are forced to switch job titles to prove their collaborative spirit. That’s when Sayla realizes her competition is fiercer than she imagined, which leaves her with an impossible choice:

Fall for Dex and risk losing the grant … or stop at nothing to win, and risk losing everything.

Hate You, Maybe is a closed-door romantic comedy with all the sizzling chemistry, crackling tension, and laugh-out-loud humor of an enemies-to-lovers romance, without all the spice. You may find some mild language and innuendo, but the heat stops at passionate kisses.

This standalone love story is the first in the Maybe This Time series
