REVIEW
Every. Single. Thing. That’s what I loved about this story. Every single moment of this book had me captivated. I read it in one sitting because I couldn’t get enough. I needed to know what was going to happen for Claire and Bauer. I needed to know everything.
I have loved the Ward sister’s since Logan’s book and the fact that they are getting their own stories gives me all the feels. And let me tell you, Karla keeps DELIVERING for my girls! I loved Molly’s book but this book for Claire. WOW.
Claire is the quiet sister, but she blossoms into so much more in Faked. She’s strong and kind and sees more in people than what meets the eye. She has the biggest heart and it shows through tenfold in this story.
As for Bauer. Smoke. Show. Seriously, he’s a fictional character but I’m in love with him. Karla created this loveable bear of a man in Bauer. He’s strong but so vulnerable at times. I loved watching him evolve and grow as a person in this story.
Hands down, this is one of my favorite reads of 2020. I just discovered Karla Sorensen’s books a few months ago, and I can say that she is becoming a go to author for me. It doesn’t matter what she’s writing I want to read it. I loved the depth of the storyline for Faked. I feel like it was about stepping out of your comfort zone and realizing that sometimes the risk can be worth the reward. Claire and Bauer are the definition of opposites attract, but they work. Their banter and vulnerabilities are what make them relatable characters. You need to read this one, I promise you won’t be disappointed!

Blurb:
Every action has a consequence, and Claire Ward knows it. And yet, even knowing that her decision to swap places with her identical twin sister, Lia, for a night could be disastrous, she still does it.
Why?
Because it will give her an evening with the man she’s been crushing on for years, Lia’s best friend, Finn.
Miss Straight A Student has thought through all the angles, and knows the risk is worth it. And everything would have been fine, if Finn had been the one to show up at her door.
But it wasn’t.
Bauer Davis— Finn’s half brother and his exact opposite in just about every definable category is the one waiting for her instead. A professional snowboarder, Bauer is covered in ink, full of attitude, and has a chip on his shoulder the size of Mt. Olympus. The kind of bad boy that Claire has never been attracted to before.
Now the good girl is with the wrong brother for a night, and when the consequence is that they have to pretend to be together for an event, it’s nothing she could have predicted. But maybe, just maybe, what makes Bauer so bad, is exactly what Claire needs.

Author Bio:
Well, let’s see … I’m a wife and a mother. If the things that I write bring a smile to someone’s face, then I’ve done my job. I am obsessed with Outlander (both the books and the show). I’m almost exclusively a romance reader, which means some people will never consider me a literary snob. If I could meet one historical figure, it would be Jane Austen. I received my Bachelors in Public Relations and worked in health care marketing before I had my babies. I hate Twitter. I do it, but I hate it. Also, if you want to get on my good side, bring me wine and I’ll love you forever.
