Despite having so little in common, Luc and Oliver slide into the faux boyfriend/boyfriend role fairly easily. Nonetheless, I was willing to buy into his need for a respectable boyfriend. Neither did I feel that Luc’s latest “scandal” was scandalous enough for him to potentially lose his job over.

I didn’t believe Luc’s C-list celebrity status warranted front page coverage in the tabloids. He is a polished, successful barrister who exudes confidence. Oliver, on the other hand, is the total package. Who knew I needed a lovable loser in my life? Ok, so maybe Luc isn’t a total loser, but he suffers from terrible self-esteem, his non-profit job is unfulfilling-there’s nothing exciting about dung beetle preservation-and his life choices are questionable at best.

I quite enjoyed this fake dating romance. Don't ever want to let them go.īoyfriend Material was a rave hit a couple years ago, and I finally got around to listening to it. Then they can go their separate ways and pretend it never happened.īut the thing about fake-dating is that it can feel a lot like real-dating. So they strike a deal to be publicity-friendly (fake) boyfriends until the dust has settled. Unfortunately apart from being gay, single, and really, really in need of a date for a big event, Luc and Oliver have nothing in common. In other words: perfect boyfriend material. He's a barrister, an ethical vegetarian, and he's never inspired a moment of scandal in his life. To clean up his image, Luc has to find a nice, normal relationship.and Oliver Blackwood is as nice and normal as they come. Now that his dad's making a comeback, Luc's back in the public eye, and one compromising photo is enough to ruin everything. His rock star parents split when he was young, and the father he's never met spent the next twenty years cruising in and out of rehab. Luc O'Donnell is tangentially-and reluctantly-famous.
