3.5 Stars - A really enjoyable romance, but a bit lengthy. Given the plot and the time frame, I felt we could've shaved off about 50-100 pages and still had just as much fun. Even if the reasoning here felt shaky, it's one of the better fake/forced marriage stories I've read. Natalie and August don't really stay enemies for long but the squabbling and the slow burn stay for most of the book. Natalie was a funny, relatable, and sympathetic heroine, I thought. Sure, she has some champagne problems but she's really just trying to figure out where she fits in. August was a bit immature but he had her back from the beginning so it was fun to see them realize what they could do as a team. Tessa's writing style never fails to engage me, but I found this one more refreshing than some of her other newest releases that ironically felt more forced than this one.
