Why read it?
1 author picked Pretend You're Mine as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
This was one of the first romance books I read, and it has stuck with me. Luke is a grouchy military guy that is tired of his family’s meddling or anyone else’s for that matter. His bristly personality keeps most at bay but when Harper stumbles into his life he realizes he’s going to have a hard time keeping her out of his life.

From DeDe's list on a blend of romance, laughter, and mystery.
