"I want to see myself like she sees me. Because in her eyes, I don't feel like I'm a man carrying an entire mountain of expectations on my shoulders. I'm just Rowan, the kind of guy who sits on a floor in in a a pair of expensive slacks a eating takeout from a carton and loving every second of it."
Me gustó más de lo que esperaba, después de la mitad me empezó a aburrir, pero casi al final otra vez me atrapó, creo que la parte en la que ya están en una relación fue lo que menos me gustó, como que hubo un switch medio raro en los personajes 🫠
En general su química me gustó mucho, hasta que supe sus edades (pero fue casi al final), amé a Zarah, su familia y amgigos de principio a fin, a Rowan lo amé por ratos, a veces me daba cringe jajaja, pero su crecimiento fue bien bonito.
La disfruté MUCHÍSIMO más que "Twisted love", era imposible no comparar ambas historias porque hay muchas similitudes, en pocas palabras, Rowan fue una versión MUY light y un poco más realista de Alex, y Zarah fue una versión mucho más madura y agradable de Ava. Y lo mejor de Fine Print, es que la historia tenía realmente una historia, no sólo un relleno para justificar su relación y problemas.
Amé que hubiera inclusión y la dinámica que aportaba a la relación de Zarah y Rowan, ojalá fuera tan fácil cambiar la opinión de los millonarios respecto a sus empleados 🥴
"He makes me feel beautiful. Not the superficial kind either, but in a way that makes me proud of who I am. In a way that makes me think he cares about my soul first and foremost."
Ya quiero leer la segunda parte 🤗

Zarah is the embodiment of a ray of sunshine despite her past heartbreak and struggles of the past. Rowan is a grumpy billionaire with complex feelings of his own he hast to overcome and Zarahs the one to help him along the way.
While the romance was enjoyable the book was really made for me with the introduction of Ani (Zarahs autistic sister) I found her absolutely hilarious and loved her menacing ways. Her relationship with Rowan and seeing the progression of his character growth by spending time with her really turned this book around for me where I felt it was beginning to fall a little flat.
I loved this workplace knock-off Disneyland style of romance. Definitely a feel good book with just enough heartbreak and miscommunication to make it Interesting. The perfect start to this series and left me wanting more of the Kane brothers!
Initial Rating : ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 4 stars (subject to review at the end of the year)
Spice Rating: 🌶🌶🌶 2.5/3 spice
Favourite Quotes:
“Zahra’s it for me. I know it with everything in me, and my intuition has never been wrong before. There’s nothing in the world I’ll find more beautiful than her. Not the sun. Not the moon. Not even the entire galaxy compares to the light she radiates wherever she goes.”
“I’ll never stop being greedy when it comes to Zahra. She will always be the exception to any rule and the one person I’m willing to screw the world over for. Because if she’s not happy, I’ll ruin whatever stole her smile, myself included.”
“You better have a massive dick to back up that attitude or else people will be mighty disappointed.”
“Kissing Zahra is like reaching Heaven after an eternity spent in purgatory. Like I’ve spent most of my life hopelessly ambling around, waiting for her to show me the way back to the light. She’s divine with enough wickedness to make a sinner like me want to pray in devotion.”
