Hold Me Today by Maria Luis
4.0

If you like My Big Fat Greek wedding because of the Greek families and the characters speaking Greek, you’ll enjoy this (especially the audio version).

Although they based the beginning of their intimate relationship on a deal for his construction company to work on her salon and for them to fake date so the heat from the Bachelorette type dating show he was on, it never felt like a fake dating trope. They didn’t play it up in front of their families and any time pictures of them were leaked to gossip magazines, they had no idea they were being watched. So although the trope wasn’t there, the author was able to use it as an excuse to get them thinking about each other in an intimate way, even though Mina has been in love with Nick since they were kids.
