Faux Beau (Sierra Vista)

This is a perfect Winter read, set in a cosy, mountain community with lots of snow. It’s starts off at a difficult moment in Milly’s life. She’s lost her sister after a battle with cancer and is struggling with her grief. Jax, a childhood friend, reappears as she is celebrating her sister’s life and suddenly everything changes. Jax has his own issues, dealing with a negligent mother and afraid to let his adopted family get close to him. Somehow these two wounded souls find a way to be together, despite all their insecurities and hang ups. This book is rich in both humour and emotion - I laughed, I cried, but ultimately was left feeling hopeful and happy. Jax and Millie’s story is a joy to read and I can’t wait for the next book in the story!

Having seen a book review/ recommendation for this book I jumped straight into reading it, and am so glad I did.I actually ended up binge reading this till super late over a weekend as I just needed to know what happened next between Jax and Milly.This is a heartwarming, funny and at times sad story as Milly grieves the loss of her sister. Filled with hilarious moments, great characters and touching interaction between the two MCs which makes this rom com.I found Millys friends so funny and the night out with her sisters urn was brilliant. I cant wait to see more of their stories in the next book in the series.

Wow! I absolutely loved this book from the very beginning to the very end!!! This quick & funny read that had me laughing out loud so many times! Definitely a page turned, I finished this book in a day.Milly had recently lost her sister, Zoe to cancer. She had left her life, job and fiance in New York to help take care of her sister in their family’s vacation home. They had made a list of things that Zoe wanted to do before she died but didn’t get the opportunity to finish it together. Milly had set out to “Take Life By the Balls” and finished the list.The first thing on the list that she was going to tackle was to go skiing - where she ran into Lucas (or so she thought) - her high school crush who was acting uncharacteristically flirty towards her. She saw him again at the bar, after finding a dare package that her sister left to her and their two best friends, which led to a one night stand with “Lucas”. The next morning her parents showed up unannounced which started their fake dating plan –it was also when she found out that Lucas was actually his twin brother (who had a crush on her growing up)! Jax had his own set of problems with finding his place within his family and the family business. He was a professional snowboarder who had a limited time doing what he loved. With lots of family drama, flirting and laughter, they help each other figure out what they both wanted in life.This book is told in a dual POV. These characters were just so much fun to get to know! It was so sweet, sad and heart-warming! I felt Milly’s pain of losing her sister, I felt her embarrassment when she figured out that it really wasn’t Lucas and I felt sparks flying between them! This book is full of emotion!This is the first book that I have read by Marina Adair and I cannot wait to read the next one in this series!
