I loved this! I can’t believe it’s not rated higher, because I’m usually very critical of the books I read. It’s insta-love, and some people found the fake dating trope to be unrealistic, but it’s a fake dating trope. That’s what you came here to read. Knowing that, it was an excellent book. I loved the slow burn and the chemistry. The communication difficulties between the deaf MMC and the hearing MFC didn’t slow down the book for me at all like I was worried that it might. And I totally understand Levi felt obligated to his ex fiancé to help her out. Though OW drama isn’t my favorite, this was mild. They’ve known each other since childhood, and it wasn’t like he didn’t still care about her, he just knew they weren’t meant to be married. He still wanted her to succeed. 

I’m really glad I picked this up. It might be a yearly, light, happy, holiday read.
