I really enjoyed this book especially seeing both character’s perspectives (anyone who knows me I love a dual POV)! I really liked Olive and seeing her succeed as a bestselling author at just 21 was amazing. Her friendship with Lucy was perfect and I can’t wait to read her story next! As for her relationship with Jason, I loved seeing how she would do anything for him and how her childhood crush still followed all those years later. I liked Jason and it was sad hearing about his family life, however I didn’t get the feeling that he was in love with Olive. I got the impression that he liked her, but not loved her. It felt more of a physical attraction to me. With all that being said, the spice, lust and protectiveness of Jason was amazing!
As for the plot, I really enjoyed it. The marriage of convenience worked well with Jason being seen as a bit of a playboy and it bringing Olive’s book to life as such. I loved the ending of how it finished where their story started but I do wish we saw more of Olive’s family’s reaction to everything that happened though as they were a big focus, at the start especially.
Overall, I enjoyed this book, but just felt some things were missing for me, which is why this is a 4 star reward instead of a 5 for me.
