I loved how cute and sweet the romance was. I loved the characters, their banter, their personalities. Basically everything.
To say I was disappointed would be an understatement. I was SO frustrated with where the author took their romance. Emmie is employed in a male-dominated shop dealing with tools. Tate is the social media coordinator and Emmie has taken the companies digital visibility to the next level but when the two of them meet Tate doesn't take to Emmie the way she thinks is accepta As one of the few female employees at a male-dominated company, Emmie Echavarre is a pro at being just "one of the guys".
She has tough skin, doesn't let anyone put her down and. Does that entice you enough? How about an enemies-to-lovers office romance? Yes, you read that right! Faker has two of my favorite tropes and Sarah Smith's spin on them were fantastic.
I had a lot of fun reading this one and I think others will too. The enemies-to-lovers vibe were strong from the very beginning of this book and I was living for it. Emmie is one of the handful of women. A debut novel by Sarah Smith, Faker was a real treat and so much fun to read! The cover and then the blurb drew me in instantly, making me want to read this novel.
Off the bat, I can see how and why people may get The Hating Game vibes but honestly, there really is no comparison. This story is so very different, diverse, and special in its very own way and right.
The story begins with Emmie our heroine, she's of Filipino and Hawaiian descent. Working in a mostly male dominated caree I am such a huge fan of enemies to lovers romances, so to say I was excited for this book was an understatement.
I went into this one with some pretty high expectations and was sadly disappointed. Working at an office full of men, Emmie is used to faking confidence to make it as a professional.
She doesn't let anyone walk all over her and she speaks her mind, even though she's really not that confident on the inside. Especially when it comes to her infuriatingly annoying coworker, Tate. When Emmi I really wanted to like it, but I hold grudges. It must be the Scorpio in me. Yup, that was his excuse. Oh, and has always dated Asian women that look exactly like Emmie.
The whole first half of the book Tate was the biggest jerk. Comparisons to The Hating Game are easy to make when it comes to this hate to love work place romance. Props for the own voices biracial rep though! I want the bastards in this book DEAD at my doorstep by dawn I dragged myself out of the battle with this book bloody and battered but I did it.
I finished the worst book I have read this year. Oh my god. Like she was honestly worshipping the paleness of his skin. For someone who is Filipino and grew up in Hawaii to see whiteness as such a good quality is really concerning and I ca It is truly unfortunate that this book has surface similarities to The Hating Game because it's almost impossible not to compare them.
Unfortunately, this book is like The Hating Game if you remove the charm, wit, and banter. I am not the first one to point that out. The thing is that Emmie isn't a bad romance character. She's working hard in a job she kind of likes and appears to be good at, but has the challenge of being one of the only women in the company.
