There are lots of things I wouldn’t tolerate in real life but are ok in books….stalking as the foundation of a relationship is not one of them. The resolution of this key conflict was….the FMC decided not to be mad because her friends found the stalking/paying her fiancé to leave her romantic. He also refused to apologize. Give me a break.
Also, the slow burn was 100 pages too long, the late insertion of a tinder-swindler character was odd, and the sex scenes were neither cute nor sweet.
Finally, the doctors asked her multiple times if she had head trauma and she kept saying no despite a very intense fall in central part just a few months earlier where she was told she hit her head. How are the editors or ARC readers miss this??

This was a Bookstagram made me do it type of read. I was in the mood for some fake marriage romance and this book DELIVERED. It was a slow burn and every bit of tension was scrumdelicious 🤤
Jack Hawthorne was the perfect book hubby, he was broody and stern and completely OBSESSED with his missus, and I ate that shit up. Yes he lied BUT even that was perfect, because everything he did, he did because he wanted her to be safe and happy doing what she loved, what more can you ask???
Rose was a sweet and lovable FMC, she wasn’t the brightest light in the room sometimes, but her heart was always in the right place. I love how she was passionate and fought so hard to reach her dream despite everything life threw at her.
Well obviously I loved that book so why the weird rating? This book was on his way to be a solid 4 ⭐️ so what happened? That unnecessary third break up act did. I mean they already took forever to get together, they were happy for 5 seconds and then boom?? Honestly made no sense to me, especially when she knew she was going to forgive him anyway 😒 so yeah couldn’t get past that shitshow and if I ever get my hands on Josh, he’s a dead man for sure
