Summary: (from goodreads) Mackenzie “Max” Miller has a problem. Her parents have arrived in town for a surprise visit, and if they see her dyed hair, tattoos, and piercings, they just might disown her. Even worse, they’re expecting to meet a nice, wholesome boyfriend, not a guy named Mace who has a neck tattoo and plays in a band. All her lies are about to come crashing down around her, but then she meets Cade.

Cade moved to Philadelphia to act and to leave his problems behind in Texas. So far though, he’s kept the problems and had very little opportunity to take the stage. When Max approaches him in a coffee shop with a crazy request to pretend to be her boyfriend, he agrees to play the part. But when Cade plays the role a little too well, they’re forced to keep the ruse going. And the more they fake the relationship, the more real it begins to feel.

Bliss and Garrick had a story to tell. He was the professor, she was the college student and they were in love. However, it just got even better with the story of Cade and Max. Still infused with humor and emotions, Cora has added a deepness that left me wanting more when I reached the last page. Cade is that character that readers caught a glimpse of his soul in Losing It. However, in Faking It, you see all of Cade. His heart is open for readers to see. He is so giving in Faking It, that you can't help but to fall in love with him. Cora creates a character that readers have truly seen him evolve throughout the series. Upon hearing of Bliss and Garrick's big announcement, Cade finds himself thinking about his personal life, wondering what comes next. When he meets Max and is faced with a proposition that he can't turn down, little does he know that the unexpected, just may happen. Max is currently dealing with identity issues. She believes that she knows who she is, however her parents have different feelings regarding what "they feel" she should be. Cade and Max develop a unique relationship that turns into something neither one expected. If you haven't read Losing It yet, you can still enjoy Faking It. However, you'll miss out on two great reads that flow so well together. In the end, will Cade let go of his one true love and embrace another? Devote a few days of reading time and allow Cora Carmack's writing to entertain and touch you at the same time.
