Adam

I've got it bad for my best friend, but he's only had eyes for my sister since we were kids. I don't know what I'll do if they hook up - especially after a drunken kiss West doesn't seem to remember. Seeing them together just might kill me, so why I offer to help him hone his dating skills, I'll never know. FML.

West

Ever since a drunken kiss we haven't talked about, I've been seeing Adam in a new light. Trouble is, he thinks I want his sister. This whole bisexual awakening thing is scary, and I don't want to risk our friendship by moving too fast. But when Adam mocks my dating skills, I come up with a genius plan: Five Fake Dates. Adam thinks he's helping me, and I get to test the waters without risking our friendship. Win-win!

A few fake dates, increasingly real kisses, and a tiny deception between friends. What could go wrong?

Five Fake Dates was originally written for a promotional giveaway to fans. It has been expanded to approximately 27,000 words and now has a little more spice and a bonus epilogue with HEA!

Only the epilogue made this book a little bit better.

Great performance from the narrator.

I love a good friends to lovers story. I liked the unique twist on the will they won't they. For a quick listen it had all the neccessary elements and delightful resolution.

one of my favorite tropes

You’re hot for your best friend (and roommate) but decide to repress it because he’s straight and you don’t want to lose him as a friend. Your friend kisses you on a dare and thinks he might not be as straight as he thought and wants to figure it out by going on fake dates with you, but tells you instead that he needs dating practice so he can ask your sister out. Sound like a great premise? Hell, yeah! The heat factor was perfect, and I really liked how Adam and West navigated the relationship waters as they figured things out. The story ticked all of my boxes, and at under 3 hours it is a guilty pleasure you can enjoy in an afternoon.. Narration by Darcy Stark is flawless. Five real stars for this one!

It's all very real - and hot - between Adam & West

First a disclaimer, *** I received a copy of this audio-book in return for an honest and fair review***

I selected this from a list of choices because I needed a “palate cleanser” after several darker, more serious titles. Two buddies who have been college room mates for a year, after growing up next-door to each other, sounded like just the ticket. Turns out it was a great choice!

The idea that two life-long friends could make their lives this complicated through miscommunication, does stretch one’s credulity a bit, but overall, the book accomplished the goal I had for it,.. to entertain.

Narrator Darcy Stark does a mostly great job of voicing both guys but seemed a bit tentative when first voicing the over-analytical Adam. As soon as I heard him voicing West, I assumed that West’s voice was Darcy’s normal voice and Adam was a character voice that he was, perhaps, over-acting a bit. With that in mind, by chapter two, both voices were fine. Imagine my surprise when in listening to the end credits it became clear that I was mistaken in my assumption and Adam’s voice is narrator Darcy’s real voice.

Fun Friends to Lovers tale

I liked the characters and I liked the story. I really like how it all played out and that it wasn’t predictable. There where moments I thought were going to be predictable but they weren’t. I admit that when I first downloaded it I was disappointed that it wasn’t longer but I was wrong, it’s the perfect length for this story. It was really good and I recommend this book.

I liked it a lot

Jamison does a good job of taking tropes (here it’s friends to lovers and fake relationship) and elevating it to so much more. Great characters here. Excellent narration.

I really liked Adam and West's story. It is a cute, low-angst story with a happy ever after ending. I enjoyed the fake dating scenes and thought the author made both Adam and West relatable. The narration was pretty good, but I was not crazy about how West's character came across. Something about the tone the narrator used for him seemed far too formal or maybe stilted. It's hard for me to describe and only detracted a little from the story for me. Overall it was an enjoyable and quick listen.

Best friends to lovers is my favorite trope. This story hit it okay for me. I love how West took his time, his introspection and his acceptance of his bisexuality.
I’m not much for fake dating trope, so I’m glad this one didn’t get dragged out. Adam was okay, I didn’t connect with his “play safe” & “push & pull” against West. For somebody who’s been in love with his best friend for years, he’s a bit too hesitant and even a bit hard to get sometimes.

It’s a short listen but enjoyable one. Darcy Stark did a good job with his narration.

I loved this short, sweet story so much! West and Adam were BFFs since they were kids, until one day they wanted more. What started out as fake dating to help West plan to woo someone else quickly morphed into the real thing between them! Although this was a very short book, the characters were well developed, I felt the connection between West and Adam and their love was clear! They explored all their sexual firsts together and it was so hot and so very sweet. I just loved it!
Darcy Stark is a new narrator for me and he did a good job. The pacing was good and the voices were distinct. I liked his Adam voice a lot!

I really enjoyed this!
