if this wasn’t supposed to be a romance it’d be a great thriller/horror. final straw for me was him threatening to kill her because he wanted a list of all the men she slept with before knowing him (full stop) and wanting to kill him and her telling him not to.

Average book with average writing and storytelling. The characters are stereotypical and not very well developed. Man of the Year would have benefited tremendously from more character development, which would have made it at least 200 pages longer - exploring the FMC Zara’s relationship with her mother and brother; exploring Quik’s strained relationship with his mother and how they repaired it; expanding on the MMC Xander’s work in the streets and at the hospital, seeing conflict between him, his staff and other women in the workplace he had relationships with; expanding on Zara and Rocky’s relationship as friends plus their relationships with cousins Pyro and Veda; and fully developing the toxic relationship between the main characters, Xander and Zara. The story could have been fuller and overall more interesting through this work. Unfortunately , I don’t recommend Man of the Year to anyone seeking a thorough story. If you’re a fan of fast paced, lightweight stereotypical characters with more drama than engaging storylines, then maybe this book is for you.

Xander is a man that knows what he wants no matter if WHO he wants he just met 10 minutes ago. I absolutely loved this tale of an unhinged man, and a woman who matched his energy. Their bond was both funny and relatable.
