I really liked the middle of this book. The beginning and end, not so much. I thought it started out a little slow but once I got into it, it was great up until the last 20% or so. I wasn't crazy about Holland as a character but I ended up loving Calvin. He was sweet and really seemed all in when it came to marrying Holland, whereas she was constantly questioning his motives even though she was the one to suggest marriage in the first place. Most of their drama stemmed from a lack of communication and Holland's refusal to listen to any explanation, which was frustrating.

After coming off a re-read of Mariana Zapata's Wall of Winnipeg, I was excited to read another marriage of convenience romance but unfortunately Roomies didn't meet my expectations. 3 Stars because I didn't dislike it.
