The male performance on this book (playing at 1.3× speed) sounds like me half-assing my Rod Serling impression

This is a cute story about a fly-by-the-seat-of-her-pants FMC and a by-the-book MMC thrown together by a winning lottery ticket. Fake dating, grumpy/sunshine, with some undiagnosed neurodiversity for flavor.
I didn‘t love it. It took a long time to settle in with the characters, and while I liked the middle section, I found the final conflict and its resolution unsatisfying. Normally I‘d get through this in a week, but this took six, so 🤷🏻♀️

This was a cute, if a little slow, fantasy romance. A mix of historical fiction and magical realism, this features a married couple in a marriage of convenience, that work together to solve a magical mystery. The relationship issues were a bit unnecessary as they were heavily built on miscommunication. When a simple conversation would solve most of the issues, it can be frustrating to leave. I still like the writing and the world. 3.5⭐️
Great audiobook. A movie exec falls for a screenplay, and a cinematographer she thought she hated. A lovely, grown-up, not too sticky sweet romance.
My brain just can‘t concentrate on a book right now. I did just finish alchemy of flowers, which was pretty good but not amazing. I think I‘m going to try Annabelle Monagan‘s it‘s a love story.
I‘ve enjoyed her other romcoms and enjoy her sense of humor.
Annabel Monaghan is quickly becoming a favorite author, I love that she writes rom-coms that I can so easily visualize in my head with great characters and side characters, easy banter, and new tropes while also keeping classy with what is left unsaid in the bedroom.
Love these old Harlequins. Although it's more a novel about Cara and her new job and her mean boss who is out to make her life miserable than a romance novel. The book is just under 200 pages, and 100 pages in the heroine and the hero had only seen each three times, and two of those were very brief meetings. But I loved Cara and was deeply invested in her life, and very much enjoyed the book, even if the romantic resolution was a little rushed.
