REVIEW ➞ Like You Love Me by Adriana Locke

BLURB ➞

Two childhood friends are playing house—and maybe playing for keeps—in this sexy, and unpredictable marriage-of-convenience romance.

To save her Tennessee bed-and-breakfast, Sophie Bates needs a fast-cash miracle. Holden McKenzie, her childhood best friend, needs to prove to a prospective employer that he’s a committed man. Their fortunes on the line, Holden proposes…a solution.

He’ll take care of Sophie’s bills if she agrees to a temporary marriage of convenience. And why not? They’re comfortable together, they have fun, and they trust each other. It’s as simple as saying “I do.” But the off-the-cuff wedding has all of Honey Creek talking—and Sophie and Holden realizing that their perfect arrangement is working too well. If they’re not careful, this marriage could turn into a love story.


Sophie was my best friend every summer. As we grew up, so did the chemistry between us.


ARC REVIEW ➞

I officially want to move to Honey Creek! I instantly fell in love with this small town and the people in it.

Holden and Sophie grew up spending the summers together, they were best friends and they could have been so much more, however, life had other plans…until recently when Holden found himself back in the small town he once visited.

I loved the chemistry between Holden and Sophie. The banter between them had me laughing. I loved their friendship and just how easy and natural everything felt between them. When Holden proposes the marriage of convenience idea to Sophie, I loved that despite how it all started he showed her she is something special and how she deserves to be treated. Everything was based on their friendship and their respect.

Like You Love Me is truly the perfect escape!

If you’re looking for a small town, friends to lovers, marriage of convenience romance this is one to read! I can’t wait to return to Honey Creek!
