Reviews with content warning for Sexual content - Xeni: A Marriage of Inconvenience

This book was fun and light, but I feel like the author didn’t really give a strong reason why the main couple couldn’t just be together from the beginning. There didn’t seem to be much conflict. Even so, I enjoyed the characters.

I listened to the audiobook, and I felt that the narrator was a mismatch for this book. Any time he tried to say something remotely AAVE, it sounded super off.

This romance is immaculate. A marriage of convenience between a bisexual Black witch and a bisexual plus size white Scotsman. This is one of those romances that feels super tropey and fun, but has a complex and engaging plot. I enjoyed every single minute reading this book.

Imagine attending your aunt's funeral & finding out she left you millions of dollars through her estate, but the catch is you have to marry a complete stranger to receive your inheritance! A marriage of inconvenience ensues..

Xeni was a stand out character for me in book one of this series, Rafe, so I was happy to see her own love story because she exuded main character energy from the moment she was introduced. I love seeing bisexual rep of the MC and the love interest. Mason is a plus sized Scottish brogue who plays the bagpipes and teaches Xeni how he likes to be p3gg3d?! I mean... this is the first I've read about it and tbh I am not mad at it.

The romance between Xeni and Mason was extra sweet with skittles on top. I will definitely be reading more from Rebekah Weatherspoon because I have been missing out on her fantastic love stories!!!!

Xeni's aunt just died and left her a 23 million dollar plus fortune but there's a catch. Xeni has to marry the hot Scottish man who played the bagpipes at the funeral, and she has to stay officially married to him for 30 days before she can access her inheritance. Welcome to a marriage of inconvenience. ☺️💚

Aaaaaaaaaaaaah!!! *insert screaming*
Yes. yes to Bisexual representation. Yes to Xeni and Mason. Yes yes yes.
Also, who do I have to pay to end up with a fortune plus a tall Scottish man who cooks for me? Xeni is living my life. I hate her. I love her. I'm obsessed!
The conversations were a little too cheesy but it was all so romantic and I don't hate it. I really enjoyed reading this.

Rebekah Weatherspoon what have you done to me????? I did an internet deep dive on fat rep in adult romance/erotica (a topic on which there is a surprising dearth of information 😓), and found mention of this book. And OOOHH I am so glad I picked it up because I am LIVING. This was spicier than I am used to, and even included some stuff that I am way not comfy with, but I still managed to LOVE IT? I will be reading everything from this author that I can get my hands on.
