BOOK REVIEW: ONE WEEK GIRLFRIEND (Drew + Fable, #1) by Monica Murphy

One Week Girlfriend by Monica Murphy
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Oh man. I read this book in one sitting. I just can't afford to put this book down.

This book has a great take in the “pretend to be boyfriend-girlfriend” ordeal. At first, I was kind of doubting if I should place this on my to-read list and really read it because of the “**Mature situations and sexual content - recommended for ages 17+**” placed in its goodreads description. But I took a shot of reading this and I certainly didn’t regret it.

There’s so much happening in this story than the deal that they’re having (more of what we can read off of its plot line) . There were inner ghosts/problems both of the characters are dealing with – Drew and Fable. It was a full-blown roller coaster ride while reading their story. One minute, you’re extremely happy, the next one you feel sad and the next your mouths are hanging wide open (ughh because of that revelation connected to Adele, Drew’s stepmom. Pfft I hate her character *pulls my hair out*) .

I love Fable. She’s such a strong, forgiving and accepting person. I wanna hug her for being that. She may have family problems of her own but she still wants to ease another person’s problem off their shoulders. MARSHMALLOW – At first, she tries to help Drew escape his problems and then later on she tries to help him fight it off. She just wants Drew to be better. Those memories of his pasts are getting in their way to be together.

*sobs* Drew *sobs* His character though. I know from the moment he offers that deal to Fable, he’s in a dipshit situation. But I never would’ve guessed that it’s “THAT KIND OF SITUATION” . When there were pieces of information from the past being dropped by Adele (and those innuendos) , my brain’s already working and trying to form all these kinds of guesses. I was kind of not hoping it to be true, BUT *SCREAMING*. I was utterly shocked.

READ THIS BOOK! READ! READ!

As I write this down, I'm itching to read the next book already. I really want know what’ll happen to Drew and Fable’s relationship. Here’s to hoping that they’ll find their happiness in this book. So, I'm off and will read Second Chance Boyfriend NOW!
