You're So Vain by Angela Casella

Ruthie is trying to get a bookmobile (like a book store not a library) off the ground. Shane is trying to get hired by the last firm in town that might take him on. He tries to hire her to be a pretend family so he looks better while trying to get this job. This is a romance, so, of course, they're going to fall in love. 

One of the conflicts in this book was solved a little too quickly but this is a fast, fun, and fluffy so I probably should have expected that.

You're so Basic by Angela Casella

Danny and Mira are going to be roommates. Danny lives in his friend's apartment. His friend has moved in with his girlfriend so the girlfriend's sister is moving in with Danny. Both think it's going to be an interesting experience because Danny is an introvert who doesn't talk a lot, works from home, and is a morning person while Mira loves to be around people, owns her own bar, and is very much a night owl. 

The two both have previous relationships that have damaged them in their own ways but, when Mira breaks her foot and the two end up spending a lot of time together. 

There is also subplot that I didn't think was really needed about people spying on Danny but that whole point could have been left out as it did nothing to serve the plot.

You're So Bad by Angela Casella

Shauna is dealing with some stuff. Her ex-boyfriend and her ex-best friend are getting married. If that's not bad enough, they've asked her to be a bridesmaid. For the wedding that's going to be on her birthday. But she's totally fine. Totally. 

Her grandmother isn't so sure and has been spreading rumors that Shauna's dating a pediatrician. Well, she's not so her grandmother has also found a stand in. And Leo is all in. Shauna's cute and her grandmother is a trip so he's willing to help out.

There's a secondary story of them helping out a runaway teen. 

I never really connected to either Shauna or Leanard. The story was... fine and moved the friend group along. But I didn't see how Shauna or Leo connected really outside of the fake dating.

You're So Extra Finding by Angela Casella

Delia works as a rent-a-granddaughter but she has a chance to be an extra on a movie. A movie where her high school crush is the star. Normally, that high school crush would be the hero of the story but not in this book. Instead, she finds herself hanging out with another extra on the movie, Lucas. 

Lucas is going by one name because his last name is rather recognizable. His family is pretty awful. But he's trying to make amends. Still, it might be a problem when Delia finds out exactly who he is. 

This is definitely part of a series so there were missing parts but I have a feeling we'll find out more in subsequent stories.
