by Mhairi McFarlane
5 out of 5!
Honestly, I loved this book, it took you on a rollercoaster of emotions and It made me want to be best friends with the character. Mhairi McFarlane does a great job of drawing you into the book and hitting all the feelers. I am already ordering another one of her books, because it was written well and honestly was emotional. Sometimes you need a good emotional book!
If I Never Met You is about a 36 year old women named Laurie, she is in a long term relationship with Dan. They have been together for 18 years and everything seems perfect. One night she gets home and he wants to end things, stating he feels like he never got to have fun he doesn't know who he is, all that crap, he doesn't know if he wants to have kids blah blah blah. So they end things and he turns around within two months has another girl pregnant and that leaves Laurie questioning so many things about her relationship with Dan. In comes the playboy of the office Jamie, he needs to be taken seriously so he can get a promotion. Jamie and Laurie get trapped in an elevator together and decide to get drinks together after. While getting those drinks Jamie comes up with the idea that they should fake date, so he looks like he is serious and not a playboy and she can make Dan jealous. This relationship will play out of social media and everyone will think it is true. It is a win win situation, but what happens when you start to get to comfortable with your fake boyfriend. What if your fake boyfriend is not what he seems to be and is totally different than what you thought? They were both warned that fake relationships have consequences, can they avoid the consequences of playing everyone?
