Fake Dating in the City is a four-book series published between 2016 and 2017. Each book pairs the fake dating trope with a different professional scenario, from a revenge hire to a ghost hunter. The dual titles (each book has both a “Hot” title and a “Fake Dating” title) reflect different publishing editions.
The series leans into romantic comedy territory, with the humor coming from characters struggling to maintain their pretend relationships as real feelings develop.
