The only good thing about this book for me was Aaron Blackford. Catalina bothered me sometimes, especially in the beginning when her hatred seemed so unnecessary. I feel like this book could have been shortened by atleast 100 pages and it would have had the same affect. The chapters should not be over 20 pages long, it was so hard to motivate myself to keep going because of it. The book was pretty cute but definitely dragged in the beginning and I was just excited to finish it so I could read a different book.

This book lives up to its reputation and is a very good slow-burn book. Loved the characters can’t wait to read more from this author! My favorite character was definitely Aaron he had me giggling, blushing, and kicking my feet with his words and flirting DEF RECOMMENDED

Fun fact: my fave pastime is shitting on popular books (not because I’m a hater but because they’re usually not that good) but this one was one of the very few that actually lived up to the hype.

The relationship development was very organic, especially for an enemies to lovers one. A bit draggy and slow at times, and I personally feel that the part where they attended Aaron’s fundraiser event before Lina’s sister’s wedding (which was supposed to be the main plot) was rather unnecessary, but the overall slow burn was actually pretty good.

I was not really a fan of the crazy wordbuilding scattered throughout the story. I know it was supposed to be part of the Revelation, but truthfully, it felt a bit like rambling to me and my eyes kept darting to the next part of the scene because it was too unnecessarily long.

Other than that, a pretty solid book and i really liked it.

I had quite high hopes for this book. I didn't enjoy it as much as I thought I was going to, which is a bit disappointing because my absolute favourite booktuber (Larry Reads) says that this is one of her favourite 5-star reads.
I did enjoy this book, however, I feel that it is far longer than it needs to be. Also, it was very predictable from the first sentence of the book which was a bit annoying.
3.5 star rating from me :)

This book was so cute. It was slow at the start for me leading up to the trip to Spain, but I love Catalina and Aaron so much. The Martin family was so lovable, and their trip satisfied my fake-relationship-turned-real needs. The last couple chapters slapped me a lil silly with the conflict but overall, enjoyed the book.
