"Cataline Martin desperately needs a date to her sister's wedding. Especially since her little white lie about her American boyfriend has spiralled out of control. Now everyone she knows- including her ex and his fiancee- will be there and eager to meet him.
She only has four weeks to find someone willing to cross the Atlantic and aid in her deception. New York to Spain is no short flight and her raucous family won't be easy to fool.
Enter Aaron Blackford- her tall, handsome, condescending colleague- who surprisingly offers to step in. She'd rather refuse; never has there been a more aggravating, blood-boiling and insufferable man.
But Catalina is desperate, and as the wedding draws nearer, Aaron looks like her best option. And she begins to realize he might not be as terrible in the world as he is at the office."
My Rating: 2.5/5
As someone who doesn't work in cooperate America, I don't think I can accurately understand an office job. That seems like a good place to start because I think the office politics in this (office-wise) were not what I anticipated. There are a few scenes in this in the workplace that made me cringe and a few more that made me fume and while they were dealt with, it wasn't in a way that I would have preferred. The romance was fun, and the enemies-to-lovers trope was cute, but the actual steamy scene had a few buzzwords that I just don't prefer (things that just take me out of the moment). It was fun, I will listen to the next one, but I don't think they are new favourites.
Thanks for reading,
Sidny
