Her Good Side by Rebekah Weatherspoon
Her Good Side by Rebekah Weatherspoon is a delightful fake relationship YA romance book! I love this author’s adult romance and couldn’t wait to read her YA book, which was even better than I imagined it would be.
Bethany is a basketball player, who yearns to take cooking classes instead. With two moms who played in the WNBA, and two sisters who are college stars, she feels stuck. She also feels discouraged because she can’t get a date for Homecoming, while all her friends are paired up. Enter Jacob, who has been dumped twice in two months for being too quiet and nice, and a dating pact is quickly formed.

I loved how real the issues these two faced, both individually and together were. Their struggles had me rooting for them both to not only end up together, but also to individually follow their dreams.
This is a great weekend read, because you’re immediately rooting for the character, the story keeps you interested until the last page, and the writing is superb. I can’t recommend it enough!
