This book was waaay better than I expected. The first half of it was really good, and though that faded throughout the second half, it was still an entertaining book. And although the story was kind of silly, the characters were fine.
Could have been a 5 star read, but something was missing. I can't say what exactly, maybe a real highlight of the book... But I'm very sure of one thing - I looove Max! So much!

Read it a second time and still love it. Guess this is one of my favorites now.
The story was really good... the cover of the book didn't cover what it was all about.
Loved how caring Max was... loved how Nina was struggling with her feelings.
Both of the characters had their ups and downs in my opinion. Even though they were comited not to fell for each other they did it pretty quickly without any "foreplay"... what made me give this book 4 out of 5 stars... either way it was good. Hearing the nickname Liebling... was kinda nice. I wished more people would use this word more.

The perfect way to end the year is with a Nicole Williams book. This was a book that was easy to read from the get-go, sucking you in within a few pages. I have read a few stories centred on payment for marriage but this definitely felt different and new. This marriage plan wasn't a snap decision and they both went into the agreement eyes open. I literally couldn't wait for the story to unfurl.
Max was a German business powerhouse. He needed his green card and was pretty obnoxious in all things. I soon realised that all you saw with Max was a mask. Nina was a likable, permanently down-other-luck kind of woman. Despite the 'keep off' signs, I liked her. This was a book with fantastic banter and dialogue between the two main characters. The side characters were merely a supporting cast, this was all about Nina and Max.
The chemistry between these two was sizzling and I was anticipating fireworks. Bang! The cockiness of Max's character transformed into something else when they were real with one another. I enjoyed getting under both their skins.
Nicole Williams has written some diverse books this year and Hate Story compliments the 2016 collection very nicely. I am never disappointed by one of her reads. I am not really a fan of the cover, and if you aren't, please don't let that put you off, because what's inside is a read you do not want to miss.
