Goodreads Summary:
Beloved author Kasie West once again delivers a witty, lighthearted romance that will charm her legions of fans and is perfect for readers of Jenny Han and Huntley Fitzpatrick.

At sixteen, Hadley Moore knows exactly who she is—a swimmer who will earn a scholarship to college. Totally worth all the hard work, even if her aching shoulders don’t agree.

So when a guy dressed as Hollywood’s latest action hero, Heath Hall, crashes her swim meet, she isn’t amused. Instead, she’s determined to make sure he doesn’t bother her again. Only she’s not sure exactly who he is.

The swim meet isn’t the first event the imposter has interrupted, but a little digging turns up a surprising number of people who could be Heath Hall, including Hadley's ex-boyfriend and her best friend’s crush. She soon finds herself getting caught up in the mysterious world of the fake Heath Hall.

As Hadley gets closer to uncovering the masked boy’s identity, she also discovers some uncomfortable truths about herself—like she might resent the long shadow her late brother has cast over her family, that she isn’t as happy as she pretends to be with her life choices…and that she's falling for the last guy she ever thought she would like.


Review

I don't think I'll ever get my fill of Kasie West stories! She's the queen of sweet romances with a side of life lessons. Moment of Truth was so down-to-earth~

What I Liked:
- easy to read writing
- adorkable characters
- a fun but not so serious mystery that kept me guessing
- I loved how genuine Hadley's struggles were
   - she was scared but knew she owed it to herself to take action
   - her bravery was rewarded with positive feedback (from her parents)
- the super cute annoying-to-like romance
- friendship goal
- guest appearance of characters from previous book in the series

The Not So Much:
- Hadley's parents' neglect made me pretty mad
- I could always use more kissing ;)
- I wish they stuck with the alliteration for the title (though I can see why Moment of Truth fits)
