An heiress to a hotel company, Nina Gregory is hoping that she has longer to figure out her life before her father dies of cancer and she is forced to take over the company. Her life seems perfect, she is dating her best friend, Tim, and she is enjoying work as a speechwriter on a campaign for the next NYC mayor. However, as her father gets sicker, he alludes to some secrets that she may find when she reviews information about the company. Her attraction to her boss, Rafael, the mayoral candidate grows stronger, and she starts to have doubts about her relationship with Tim.
This is a contemporary romance with dilemmas about life and choices. I enjoyed it, but the opulence of Nina's life was a bit much to handle. Of course, most everything in Nina's life was wrapped up nicely at the end of the book, a bit too perfectly.

I really enjoyed this book. I think the ending was satisfying but there could have been a little more to it. I loved reading it as a buddy read.

Fun light fluff read. A perfect book for a rare lazy Saturday morning.

Nina has everything planned out for her, her job, her boyfriend, and a future where she takes over her father's company. Little does she know that sometimes plans have a way of changing. When Nina's father passes away, she needs to come to terms with his death and with the secrets he left behind. She begins to realize that not everything is what it seems and that sometimes what you see on the outside is hiding the truth on the inside. Nina starts to see things in a different perspective and she starts to rethink who she is and what she wants.
This is a great book about love and loss. It tackles grief, romance, relationships, and self worth. It makes you smile and cry. You will find yourself tearing up and also feeling a sense of calmness. It is a lovely romantic book about a woman who finally figures out what it is to be herself.

the synopsis of this is so dramatic the book itself is underwhelming if this was just marketed as what it is a simple romance then i would have liked it more
