So this was my first read of Lila's and I am 100% addicted. This book was so amazing, I read it all in one day (read pretty much non-stop for 4 hours). I read it even while I was cooking dinner (resulted in burning myself and part of my food of course =D).

This book had every characteristic you want in a book: Great leads, funny support characters, serious and funny scenarios & every emotion under the rainbow. Lila gave us ALL of these so many times!!! Nate and Julia were such amazing lead characters, they were both so developed and for the most part unpredictable. There were also so many layers to their story. They started off by hating each other, they wake up together and put the pieces back together. How can you not LOVE THIS? This isn't your typical "What happens in Vegas" story and that makes it so much better!

Their friends throughout this whole story are fantastic too!! I really enjoyed the fact that Julia was an author, I always think that is clever, and that her author friend and agent are a big part of this. And then there's the bachelor and bachelorette parties. All of these people just really are the icing on the cake.

Can't wait to go read more of her work!

What a fun book! Oh Vegas sounds fun!

Overall this book was a pretty shallow iteration of The Hangover, but it wasn't horrible. It had me laughing at some parts and it had a nice happy ending. 2 stars

This was a fun, rompy fake marriage to a near strangers while in Vegas.I thought that the chemistry between the two MCs was great and the bickering was funny.

I wanted to see more push and pull between the charachters but I thought the story flowed well.
