I wanted to read this book as I have seen it all over Booktok and Bookstagram. Holy hell, why in god’s name is this the first time I am hearing about Lauren Asher. I’ve had a taste and I want more of the Kane brothers. This is the first book in a series of interconnected standalones following the billionaire Kane brothers. 

There are two points of view in the novel. The first point of view is Rowan. He is in the business of creating fairy tales – theme parks, production companies and five-star hotels.  Rowan could have everything if he renovated Dreamland. He thought hiring Zahra was a good idea until he kissed her. Things totally spiralled out of control once he started texting her using an alias. By the time he went wrong, it was too late. Rowan believes that people like him don’t get a happy ending and that he is destined to ruin it. The second point of view is Zahra. She works at Dreamland and she submitted a drunk proposal which criticizing Dreamland’s most expensive ride, she thinks she is going to get fired, however she is offered her dream job by Rowan. The catch? She has to work for the most difficult boss she has ever encountered. Rowan was rude and completely off-limits, but she didn’t care. At least not until she had discovered his secret. Zahra things he can teach the billionaire that money can’t fix everything, especially not their relationship. 

Oh, this book owns my heart - I think I can read this every day and not get bored of it. I love the representation of Zahra, she is European-Armenian plus size and she is a ball of sunshine who is nice to everyone and is always smiling. She thought she blew her chance on her dream job working as a creator in the Dreamland theme park, but after a drunken email she is now on the creator’s team, where she meets Rowan. I love Rowan he is the grumpy, youngest Kane brother. He isn’t at Dreamland by choice, he is here to get the money from his grandad’s will. His grandad set each of the brothers a mission in order to get their percentage of the will. I love Rowan and Zahra’s dynamics and the relationship they create. I love the multiple POVs and I love the playlist that is at the front of the book. I can’t hate anything about this book, I already want to read the second and the third book and any other of Lauren Asher’s book.
