Love Contract by Sophie Lark

In LOVE CONTRACT, Sophie Lark put an interesting twist on the fake dating trope. Sully and Theo knew one another in high school but it’s not a romance reunion. It looks like  Sully was an obnoxious bully in high school, in fact, and Theo was a target.

Theo has done some growing up, but Sully helps her see what she’s doing that keeps herself from being fulfilled in her job. Together they make a pact involving Theo’s much detested boss.

The humor in the book had me chuckling whether it was the self depreciating things Theo came up with or the “manic golden retriever” humor of Sully’s twin brother, Reese. The romance was choppy - they confused each other with their feelings and actions. I liked the zing the small bouts of jealousy put in there.

I kept turning the pages of this advanced copy of the book, eager to find out how Sully and Theo pulled things off with her boss. My opinion of this book is given voluntarily and I enjoyed it.
