“This was supposed to be a marriage of convenience. I never expected it to be much more.”
Let's start with what I did like:
I love marriage of convenience/forced proximity and billionaire. It's up there with one of my favourite tropes. This is my first read from Anise Storm, and I quite enjoyed the storyline. I thought Caspian and Paisley were amazing together, and Paisley really came into her own, despite the hand being dealt. She was able to stand up to Caspian's uncle, and was true to herself. Caspian is your typical alpha-ceo. His mannerisms sucks (constantly interrupting Paisley, for example) and he thinks he's gods gift. But underneath that he just wants to feel the kind of love he missed out on growing up.
What I didn't particularly like:
It was a touch over-detailed, but not enough to make me dislike the story. I feel like some things here and there could have been left out.
Overuse of the word “females”. This is probably the biggest beef I have with this book. It would have been so much better if I didn't read “females” for every time the author should have just used women. I don't know why, but this word just bugs me when it's used a descriptive word. “The female” is just off-putting.
Overall, I'd give the book a 4. There was a lot of good in those pages, and I truly did love Caspian and Paisley and their story! If you love billionaire, forced marriages...you'll like this one!
