A little bit of everything
This story of a fake wedding had a little bit of everything…a little history between characters, a few sad moments and funny dialogue. I liked knowing the history between the characters, and the friendship between the M &FMC, and I liked the pace of the story. My biggest criticism is the obligatory angst of the story toward the end was expected and not super original.

“Enemies” to lovers
3.5 starsWhat do you do when your grandfather is sick and only wants to walk you down the aisle? Well, if you’re Violet, you find a man to marry and plan a wedding in less than 6 months time. But then what do you do when said fiancée changes his mind less than a month out? Find another fiancée!This is a story with a lot of some expected and unexpected twists. Violet and Ross, her best friends older brother, have known each other for years and have never liked each other. Or, have they always liked each other but hid it in snarky comments and biting banter. What they do have is a need to be married for different reasons. And, in their desires to fix their respective situations, they discover that there’s a lot more going on with their friendship and that loving each other is a real possibility.This was a cute and, at times, very dramatic story. Some of the drama seemed unnecessary and unfair to the main characters. But, it was still enjoyable especially because Ms Landish can write a sexy hot and fun sex scene!

Enemies to lovers + a fake wedding, yes please
Man this book had a lot of things I like in it. We have childhood enemies, the hero is the brother of the heroines best friend, and there is a fake wedding. Woot woot.My problem with fake weddings is often the reasoning, if it’s not good, it throws off my enjoyment of the whole book. For Violet, it’s all about her grandfather, the man who raised her, who is on borrowed time and he one real last wish is walking her down the aisle. After her engagement falls throw, he only option is her childhood nemesis. It’s a good set up for me and I bought it. As for Ross, he is basically a society page regular, and the headlines are not good, it’s not looking good for the shareholders, and his dad is basically threatening him to settle down or risk losing his job and his family legacy: outside of thinking his dad is a jerk, I bought into this too.As adults these two definitely are more on the teasing/sass side of things, but as kids man, Ross really picked on Violet, and she definitely carried that teasing with her back then. I like how these two went into this though, they negotiated, and went full force into it. Not only that but when it came to uncomfortable conversations with others or awkward situations, they backed each other up without any hesitation.That being said, being a fake wedding, you know the truth will always come out, and of course at the most inappropriate moment. And boy did it in this book. And the consequences were hard and serious. It was genuinely sad, and hard to read. But I love the angst so I was totally on board. I definitely want to read more by this author in the future.

Desgraça
Não sei como consegui terminar essa porcaria, pulei várias páginas porque só queria ver se eu acertei quem revelaria o plano. Obviamente num mar personagens rasos e infantis sobrou para o pior de todos. Ross é um idiota, mas Colin não merece nem estar na lista de personagens, ele é só uma caricatura grotesca de um ser humano.

Awwww
This book made my heart happy.Ross and Violet are just too cute together and her ex is a douche but at least we have the happily ever after in the end.The big Italian family is the best!!

Es war gut
Es brauchte ein bisschen, bis ich in die Geschichte schlüpfen könnte, aber dann hat sie mich gepackt. Es hat Spaß gemacht, das Buch zu lesen und es war gute Unterhaltung. Es war aber nichts Besonderes.

Really nice
It’s a really nice and all lovey dovey book that give you good feels however it is too long..although after completing it I will agree that to develop the characters and let readers get really into it, it was required for the book to be long

Very Modern Millennial Romance
A little confronting with the terms used for body parts and the deed itself a bit gross. But skipping over the graphic scenes and just enjoying the basic storyline makes a really nice read. A bit more story and a bit less time in the bedroom would improve this.
