The Plus One Contract by Laura Ashley Gallagher
5.0
"ONE-NIGHT STANDS AREN'T SUPPOSED TO BE THIS GOOD. THEY'RE SUPPOSED TO BE QUICK, MEANINGLESS DISTRACTIONS.
NOT EARTH-SHATTERING, SOUL-LEAVING-BODY, MIGHT-NEED-MEDICAL-ATTENTION LEVELS OF MIND-BLOWING."
What was supposed to be one stand turned into a chance meeting then a whole lot more. I found myself completely engrossed in the story, devouring it in one sitting!
I loved Sienna and Nathan's characters. Their dynamic and chemistry is electric π₯ They are both successful, so the premise of a mutually beneficial arrangement, due to societal pressures to be in a relationship, quickly evolved into something much deeper, and I was here for every moment of it.
As someone who has also been career-driven, I resonated with Sienna's frustration over the constant questioning about her relationship status. Itβs refreshing to see a narrative that highlights the achievements of individuals beyond their romantic lives and shows the struggles career women face.
Sienna and Nathan weren't looking for one another but met and enhanced each other's lives.
I also appreciated how Sienna and Nathan saw the real versions of each other, seeing all their vulnerabilities, that they both tried so hard to hide. I loved watching them open up, share their traumas, and seeing them support each other in healing was incredibly moving.
Overall, The Plus One Contract is a great read that beautifully balances romance and personal growth. I highly recommend picking this if you love fake dating, with a happy ending.
Tropes:
π©΅ Fake dating
π€ One bed
π©΅ Grumpy x Sunshine
π€ Forced proximity
π©΅ One Night Stand
π€ Relationship contract
