I’m so in awe with Rowan and Zahra…. I love it.

The writing style was really nice and easy plus fast to read, with a great plot throughout.
Also the characters were amazing… except Declan Lancelot Kane, he was an a-hole.

It was filled with wit and humor. The comedic elements made it engrossing and worthwhile to read. There were numerous lessons to be learned from this book. One of my favorite lines says, "If you don't believe in yourself, no one will." Aside from the relatable and humorous anecdotes, it teaches you to push yourself to get out there and gain experience if you want to. This was lighthearted to read and hopeful.

This is not worth the hype. Rowan is actually just a terrible human being. While that terrible does come from major family trauma he treats people poorly and nothing in this book oils be possible without tons of therapy for him. He does turn it around towards the very end, but Rowan sucks. Zahra is awesome, I read the book for her. The romance isn’t cute it’s manipulative as hell. 
This is literally just Disneyland fanfic, so it was a pretty easy read. 
Also Armenia is in Europe. Zahra is described as not being white, but also as being the daughter of an Armenian immigrant and someone of European descent. Maybe the author meant Argentinian? But Armenia is Eastern Europe so all of that was confusing as hell.

Zahra is cheated on in a past relationship. Zahra ends up in the hospital with a head wound and pneumonia. Rowan’s father becomes an emotional abusive ass towards his children after the death of their mother.

4,5 stars because Rowan really stressed me out like two times. I liked Zahra and didn’t find her annoying like I have other Lauren Asher heroines😬. I loved all the Pride and Prejudice Easter eggs including one hand scene which I’m sure was DEFINITELY mimic Matthew Macfadyen’s hand scene. OH AND MATTHEW MACFADYEN WAS MENTIONED BY NAME!!! HOW COOL FOR HIM!!

There was a nice diversity overall in this book from a main character who’s Hispanic and Armenian to her sister who happened to have Down syndrome and to Rowan (the hero)’s brother Cal who had ADHD! Very cool!

Also I freaking loved the fact that the brothers were named after King Arthur’s knights, I’m so jealous.

This was the best romance book, maybe best book in general, I’ve ever read. This had such well integrated diversity that made it really stand out. The banter was TOP TIER, and there’s literally a scene where the love interest almost dies and he goes feral ?! This book was everything I could ever ask for and more. The best grumpy x sunshine I’ve ever read, and he’s a billionaire who manages an off-brand Disneyland (!!!). I’m surprised to say my now favorite book has 5/6 long sex scenes, who would’ve guessed. The whole story is so well written, it didn’t feel dragged out despite it being on the longer side. Lauren Asher, you’re my new favorite author, I worship you now. The epilogue and the extended epilogue were both perfect, and I loved every single character. Even the alternative cover with the castle has become one of my favorite book covers. I CANNOT WAIT for Terms and Conditions to release, and will be the first person in line to buy it. Please read this book!!
