This book was a fun, quick read. I‘m glad they only used the “word” “lol” once in the book. It also had THE LONGEST epilogue! Other than that, the story was pretty good. I think this is only my second Christina Lauren book.
pickI read this in 2016 and didn‘t love it. It was my first audiobook, I had just gotten back into reading, and I think listening to the multiple POV format was too much. After a reread of the audio, I am in love!! The multiple POV enhances the story so much because all the characters are so internal. We really need their opinions of each other and peripheral stories to see everything as it is. 💛💛💛💛/5!
pickI rarely read rom-com books but this came up on Libby audio, many laugh out loud moments, a good plot and I liked the different pov from Anna and Liam , good ending oh and you can‘t have a good rom-com without some 🌶️😉

Definitely my favorite from Christina Lauren that I‘ve read. It was fake dating without the drawn out “but is it real?!” And it gave such a fun wealthy island fantasy, while reminding you what is so icky about extreme wealth.
I thought both characters were well realized & while the beginning of the romance is so (so) quick, it turns out I really love a lengthy epilogue.
So well done. I‘m sure I‘ll read it again.

pickMegan wants to leave her home in Canada, where she is responsible for taking care of her many siblings and her parents. She‘s young and London is calling.
This books follows her in her new life, as well as her brother and father. Nothing much happens but it all feels very true and Mary Lawson is a gifted writer.
