Ollie 😱😍 just fangirling a bit, love hockey romance. It’s my second favourite of this series, Ollie and Lennon are just so great. I love how their story begins, their meeting is a simple coincidence, in a restaurant restroom 😂 Lennon agrees to be Ollie’s boyfriend for one dinner. However, they still think about each other and their next encounter is also a coincidence. But when Ollie learned that Lennon is a sports reporter and that he’s the reporter that wrote all the recent “harsh” articles on him, he’s not really pleased. Lennon has to follow Ollie’s team during the playoff, they finally have time to talk and fall in love !!

The culmination of the Fake Boyfriend series

Commenté en France 🇫🇷 le 7 janvier 2019

There are stories whose quality decreases with sequels by sequels and others that only improve. Eden Finley's latest book, Deke, is in this last category. This book is the third installment of the Fake Boyfriend series which I really liked the first two books. They were not perfect and I found fault on a few points. I loved the style of the author. I also liked the characters and the universe that the author had created.

Deke is the meeting between two men, Ollie and Lennon, that everything, apart from their sexuality, seems to separate. Ollie is a professional hockey player at the peak of his career who has just been transferred to another team. Lennon is a sports journalist who until recently only covered football.

It is by a fortunate coincidence that the two men who did not know each other will meet and, in order to relieve Ollie, family discussions about his love life are going to pretend to be a couple. they will meet again several months later when Ollie will realize that Lennon is the journalist who had written many articles that had crumpled his ego.

One of the things I had regretted in the first two books was that I had found a frank and quick break between "fake boyfriends" and boyfriends. Here the transition is very fluent which makes the reading very pleasant. After their second meeting, Ollie is resentful because of Lennon's articles and he really struggles to part with them. I appreciated the character of this character and the caustic situations in which he finds himself because of it.

This is a little more than deke has compared to its predecessors, humor. It is certainly light, but I found some of the interactions between the two characters quite funny and I found myself at several moments with a smile on the lips. More than the interact between Ollie and Lennon, their relationship is just very touching. I liked to see them evolve. I was touched by the uncertainties and fears of Ollie about his coming out public. I liked the protective side of Lennon who will not hesitate before standing up in front of the whole family of the hockey player to explain how their behavior could be hurtful.

In the end, Deke is a bit like a culmination of this series. A little as if the first two volumes were only essays to allow the author to create the perfect book. When we know that two more books are still planned, we can only rejoice in advance of our next readings.

Love it.
This kind of "fake boyfriend trope" was really fun.
There is no stupid drama, the angst isn't overwhelming, their chemistry is great, they are fun and cute.
Can't wait for more in the series.

So I accidentally read Puckboys first, not realising there was connected series’ and the whole time I was thinking “wish I could read about Ollie Strömberg” so imagine my delight when I found out this series existed and Ollie had his own book!

It was everything.

Lennon & Ollie are adorable and I sped through this book desperate to find out their story as fast as possible, absolutely couldn’t put it down.

I absolutely LOVED this book!!!

You always read stories of being outed and they have ridiculous story lines or they are going really good until something completely stupid screws the whole story but this, this was perfect!!

Starting with Ollie’s family who are incredible! The closeness and openness is much like my own so I was able to relate to everything from their conversations to the family jokes, like forever calling Lennon Clarke!

Lennon was a sweet bloke who has a lot of respect and morals for men like himself and despite being a sports journalist, he would never ever out anyone when it comes to their sexuality. He was incredible with Ollie and everyone else he came into contact with. What he chose to do in the end for Ollie made it all worth it.

Ollie himself is sweet, kind and has a big heart and throughout the book you got to see that in many ways. The way he decided to come out was pure selflessness and amazing to see the sportsmanship of the situation. He truly deserved everything he got in the end and it made me incredibly happy!

I would 1000% recommend this book to anyone!

Deke (Fake Boyfriend Book 3) MM

Lennon is a sports journalist, in Chicago, he’s just starting out in his career. He is out and proud, but very low key. He has been hurt twice in exactly the same way by two guys in his early teens. He has always been attracted to Jock types. So when he walks into the Gents at a restaurant, he is taken aback by a gorgeous guy, who is talking to himself.

Cutting a long story short Oliver invites him to share a meal with his family in the restaurant. He agrees, and introduces himself as Clark. (With his black glasses and looks, he looks like Clarke Kent). Also he’s fed up of jokes about his name, Lennon, some even go so far as to call him Beetle😂.

Oliver Stromberg is an Ice Hockey star in New York. He is deep in the closet because of his career. In fact he broke up with his boyfriend Ash, who he has been friends with since school, plus Ash is the best friend of Max, Oliver’s older brother. The reason for the break up was Oliver’s reluctance to come out for Ash. So, Ash got fed up having to sneak around in public, so he found someone else.

Oliver has a huge close family, with 5 brothers, many of them involved in sports, MMA, Sports Therapy, Max is odd one out, he has his own Tattooist Business and Ash is his business partner.

I think Max and Ash has something going on, hidden for sure, besides being best friends and business partners. Even though Ash has a new boyfriend.

This story is all about homophobia in Sport and why people have to hide that part of themselves or wreck their careers, even suffer abuse from their teammates.

There are a couple of new side characters here Jet the musician and Caleb another Ice Hockey player who might get their own story. Jet is an interesting and quirky guy, I like him and want to hear his story and how his career is taking off.

Some of the MC’s from earlier books in this series feature here too, Damon, Matt, Noah.

Oliver and Lennon have huge chemistry and affection for each other and they fight for their relationship.

Worth the read for them and their friends. Looking forward to reading “Blindsided” next.

Another great book by great author. Ollie is sweet as can be. I appreciated that Lennon and Ollie actually communicated what was in their minds. Maybe not immediately but not to a point to be angsty.
