Aaron Blackford was such a fun character to read about. There were points when reading where I wanted to scream at how dumb he was being and how he should just make the move. This was a great story and the way he cared for Lina was so romantic. His love language was definitely quality time, but from a distance until he learned how to let his guard down and be with Lina and her family. This was a great read and I highly recommend to anyone looking for a last minute summer romance.

I not only enjoyed this book, but also found myself going back and re-reading certain scenes for days after.

Aaron Blackford could break my bed and I would not be one bit mad about it.
DNF I never managed to finish this book because constantly being inside MFC made my brain tired.
And damn was it slow I couldn’t even make it to the part where they went to the damn wedding. I tried to use this book to get back into reading, bad decisions.

not rating bc i dnf'd this book. i can physically feel this putting me in a reading slump and i need to stop so it doesn't happen. barely 40 pages in and i already got bored and most of the time it's just the main character talking about how "large", "giant", "tall" and "muscular" the guy she is supposedly hating like girl OKAY WE GET IT. i'm sorry if you love this book but i can't continue bc it's making me go crazy and i dont think its worth LMAO

This book had some of my favorite tropes: fake dating, enemies to lovers, only one bed. Aside from office romance, what's not to like? The banter was top tier. The yearning. The longing. I was smiling and kicking my feet for most of this book. If you're going to tell me that some Clark Kent looking man with the body of superman wants to be my fake date to a wedding in SPAIN and he wants me to be his date to a charity gala where I have to spend his money to make sure that nobody else wins him in a bachelor auction, count me in. Immediate yes. The way their communication improved throughout the course of this book. And when he told her, 'when I kiss you, I want you to know it's for real' or whatever he said? He was making sure she knew from the jump that he wasn't pretending. He was only pretending because that's what she needed in the moment. He was so down bad for her. He started learning Spanish for her specifically for this trip. The only thing this needed was for them to end up engaged. And when she FINALLY confronted her ex! She needed that. That was the thing that finally allowed her to really acknowledge and accept her feelings for Aaron. I ate this up. I don't care. I was down bad for Aaron. Whatever Elena wants to write, I'm reading. I'm not sure how she's going to top Aaron for a love interest, but I'm going to buy it.

oye qué buena lectura de veranito sí señora, a veces me agobiaba la prota porque este rollo de amor odio a veces te saca de tus casillas -que es la idea-, pero me quedo con lo bonita que es la relación que formaron, muy bien llevada oleole
