3.0

I expected this one to be as good as The Fine Print given people's reviews on the series, but it honestly wasn't! I enjoyed The Fine Print more.

I love a good marriage of convenience, and I love the boss/assistant dynamic. I just couldn't get on board with how they developed feelings for each other. Like, where???

Also, nothing ever happened with Dreamland Tokyo and the father??? It was a huge plot point and just died out of nowhere. I'm hoping that that will be touched on more in the next book, but I doubt it, since that one will be following the next brother in the family.

I did, however, enjoy the spice and tension in this book. I also really like Declan's hobbies and such. He really had some moments where he TRIED, and I love some effort.

Overall, it was cute, but nothing to write home about, in my opinion!

Guide to my ratings:
5 stars: flawless, hard to put down
4 stars: it was really good and memorable
3 stars: it was good/okay
2 stars: none or not many redeeming qualities and somewhat forgettable
1 star: horrible, had no idea what was going on, boring!!!
