All Rhodes Lead Here by Mariana Zapata
4.0
This is more of a fiction novel than a romance, so I'm shelving it as both. Zapata is queen of the slow burn romance, but she slightly missed the mark here.
Aurora and Rhodes have a slow burn romance, but the culmination of a year and a half plus of hits, misses, and pining culminated in a single scene. So yeah, there was not much romance to be had in this one. I appreciated Aurora's journey to forging a life on her own, but it wore thin once I got about 3/4 of the way through the book. There was a lot of her doing things out of ignorance and people helping her figure things out and/or cope when things went wrong. It's a sweet story, but could have been even better. I laughed out loud while reading, and it was a total page turner. I'm keeping my rating at 4 stars, but it's barely a 4.
