I basically picked this book based on the cover because I was trying out a new audiobook app. I would have never guessed how thoroughly I'd end up enjoying this.
Look, this book is the perfect beach read: fake dating on a paradise island. The only trouble on the horizon are extremely rich and obnoxious relatives.
I was surprised that the main characters didn't annoy me, in fact I was rooting for them. The family dynamics and friendships were also interesting.
And I'm sure no one is surprised that there's quite a lot of spice, but I was surprised how much plot there was!
