I stayed up until 3 AM finishing this book and I have absolutely no regrets. Garrett and Hannah are everything. The fake dating trope has never hit this hard — the banter, the tension, the slow burn... I was completely obsessed. This is my most-recommended book to every girl who asks me for a romance read.

Received it in perfect condition, packaging was great. But honestly the book itself is what has me floored. I've read a LOT of college romance and The Deal is genuinely one of the best. Garrett Graham might be the most unhinged book boyfriend I've ever encountered and I'm here for it. Read it in one sitting on a Sunday.

I bought this after seeing it everywhere on BookTok and it 100% lived up to the hype. The Off Campus series is addictive — I already ordered The Mistake after finishing this. The hockey setting, the college vibes, the enemies-to-lovers energy... chef's kiss. Delivery was super fast too, came in 3 days!

GARRETT GRAHAM I WOULD DIE FOR YOU. Okay that's my review. But also — Elle Kennedy's writing is so witty and the chemistry between Hannah and Garrett is off the charts. The fake dating trope is handled so well here, not cheesy at all. Bought it as a paperback because I wanted to physically hold it and I'm so glad I did.

Got this delivered to Chennai within 4 days, came in mint condition with the Prime badge cover. This book is the reason I got into romance novels. Garrett is so frustratingly perfect and Hannah is such a strong, real female lead. I've now reread it twice. Absolute must-read if you love college romance.

Really enjoyed this one! The fake dating plot was super engaging and I loved how Elle Kennedy builds the tension slowly. Garrett is swoony but not in an unrealistic way. Would give 5 stars but I found the pacing slightly slow in the middle — though it picks up beautifully at the end. Overall a 9/10 read, will definitely continue the series.
