4.5 Star Review

I really adored the first book in this series, but Your Rule to Break was even better. Fake dating is one of my absolute favorite tropes, and LaBerge executed it perfectly here.

What truly sets this book apart is the depth of its characters. Emilie’s struggles with anxiety, panic attacks, and OCD are portrayed authentically and respectfully, making her feel like a real, relatable person. Zack, on the other hand, is the definition of a dream partner—he doesn’t just tolerate Emilie’s challenges; he loves her through them. Their relationship is tender, supportive, and heartwarming, showcasing what it means to truly find someone who embraces you as you are.

LaBerge has a knack for blending emotional depth with romantic chemistry, and it shines through in this story. I couldn’t put it down and found myself rooting for Emilie and Zack every step of the way.

Here’s hoping there’s another book in this series because I’m not ready to say goodbye to these characters just yet! Fingers crossed.
