I was super excited by the premise of this one, but couldn't quite get into the characters. The conflict was also my least favorite of the tropes.

It had some good moments, but I wasn't fully engaged, sadly.

Obsessed with this author! The 2 MC's have such amazing chemistry, and I truly love how they decided they would be honest with each other about everything from the start. I love the unwavering support the MC's have for each other through everything. I highly recommend for anyone looking for a fake fiancé trope.

I’m honestly not sure how i finished this book. i considered dnf-ing multiple times due to boredom, and then did that cycle like 5 times??? So here are your stars, i guess.

The plot is bonkers, and somehow was still sooooooo boring to me. Every single twist was painfully obvious, and the chemistry between Tansy and Gemma was saccharine in a very cloying way. The best way i can think to describe this book is having a trope wheel in front of you, spin it 5 times, and write that down. 

I didn’t hate my reading experience, but i also didn’t *enjoy* it.
