Lexi’s Reminders
* Work.
* Don’t think about your birthday tomorrow. Or debt, your crappy apartment, and nonexistent social life.
* Re-stock wine and ice cream because that’s coming.
* Die in a raging blaze of humiliation when the super-hot and very delicious fireman waiting in your office is not in fact the strip-o-gram birthday present you suspected.
* Reschedule the fire safety inspection you 100 percent failed because of said humiliation.
* Figure out how you, in fact, agreed to fake dating Mr. Not a Strip-O-Gram Fireman to help him with a bet.
* Oh yeah, and do not fall for this guy. Seriously, they call him One Night O’Neil. Red flags all over the place.
* Remember, this is fake dating, even though his very talented, very real lips are doing some sexy things you definitely like.
* Realize bending one tiny rule can’t be that bad, can it?
* Except bend too far, and something breaks. Something you can’t get back.
My review:
The Dating
Dilemma is the second book in the Mile High Firefighters series by Mariah Ankenman. The books have been fun, but they would be
fine read as stand-alones. It was fast-paced,
easy to read, and had lovable characters.
Lexi is a
giver and after her last relationship ended, her roommate, Jordan, bet she won’t
date. A misunderstanding had her
thinking Jordan sent her a Strip-O-Gram fireman to her work for her birthday. The
fireman actually was there to inspect the youth center she runs. The center is always low on funds, but they must
fix the discrepancies to stay open. Dyson
volunteering to help was a good thing.
Dyson was a
rule follower and had a strict no relationship rule after being burned by his ex-fiancé
and best friend. His two sisters keep
pestering him about dating and blindsiding him by inviting women over to their
weekly family dinner. To keep them from
setting up more dates or a profile on a dating app, Dyson asks Lexi to be his
fake girlfriend.
This was a cute
fake date storyline, and I loved the two main character’s cute meet. Lexi and her adorable habit of speaking her
thoughts out loud were so hilarious. I loved watching Lexi and Dyson’s
relationship and trust in each other grow.
This was a charming story, and I would recommend it to anyone looking
for a funny book that will leave you with a smile on your face.
I received
an ARC and am voluntarily leaving a review.
