Beschreibung

Jack and I, we did everything backward. The day he lured me into his office-which was also the first day we met-he proposed. You'd think a guy who looked like him-a bit cold maybe, but still striking and very unattainable-would only ask the love of his life to marry him, right? You'd think he must be madly in love.
Nope. It was me he asked. A complete stranger who had never even heard of him. A stranger who had been dumped by her fiancé only weeks before. You'd think I'd laugh in his face, call him insane-and a few other names-then walk away as quickly as possible. Well…I did all those things except the walking away part.
It took him only minutes to talk me into a business deal…erm, I mean marriage, and only days for us to officially tie the knot. Happiest day of my life. Magical. Pop the champagne… Not. It was the worst day. Jack Hawthorne was nothing like what I'd imagined for myself.
I blamed him for my lapse in judgment. I blamed his eyes, the ocean blue eyes that looked straight into mine unapologetically, and that frown on his face I had no idea I would become so fascinated with in time.
It wasn't long after he said I was the biggest mistake of his life that things started to change. No, he still didn't talk much, but anyone can string a few words together. His actions spoke the loudest to me. And day after day my heart started to get a mind of its own.
One second he was no one. The next he became everything.
One second he was unattainable. The next he seemed to be completely mine.
One second I thought we were in love. The next it was still nothing but a lie.
After all, I was Rose and he was Jack. We were doomed from the very beginning with those names. Did you expect anything else?

This book was so beautiful. Rose and Jack have my heart. *cries* I loved every part of this book from the beginning to the end. It was just the perfect amount of fluff and angst. The tension. The slow burn. It couldn’t possibly be written better! I laughed, I was angry and I cried a lot reading this! It was an emotional rollercoaster but I wouldn’t change it for anything. It was simply perfect. If I had to describe the perfect contemporary slow burn romance it would be exactly this book. Definitely among my favorite books this year!!! ——————second read: still as in love. Giggled like a child at Christmas the entire time. This was exactly the palette cleanser i needed to start my fantasy month. 5

Ich mochte es echt gerne. Für meinen Geschmack hat Rose bisschen viel und häufig geheult, aber manche Menschen sind halt emotionaler als andere. Allgemein war es ein gutes Marriage of convenience-Buch, auch wenn meine Erwartungen ein bisschen zu hoch angesetzt waren. (Dachte das würde ein 5/5 Buch werden)

Cheesy love story! Liebe die fake marriage trope und Jack und Rose sind so unglaublich niedlich!

an sich ein gutes Buch

mochte den Schreibstil sehr gerne, ist sehr einfaches Englisch und nicht schwer zu verstehen. Mochte auch die beiden Charaktere und wie sich die Geschichte zwischen den Beiden entwickelt hat, muss aber dazu sagen, dass mir der Plot der Geschichte leider gar nicht getaugt hat und ich mir eine andere „Auflösung“, warum die Hochzeit tatsächlich zustande gekommen ist, gewünscht hätte. Ist keine ganz leichte Geschichte, weil auch ein schweres Thema behandelt wird, aber für zwischendurch macht man mir dem Buch nicht soo viel falsch.

Gutes Buch aber zu langatmig

Rose mit ihrem Traum von einem eigenen Cafe mochte ich sehr. Ich habe sehr gerne gelesen, wie sie diesen Traum nach und nach erfüllt. Natürlich gelang ihr dies nur dank der Zweckehe, auf die sie sich einliess. Dieses Konzept gefiel mir gut mit der Mischung aus enemies to lovers und slow burn. Jedoch war mir das Buch ab der zweiten Hälfte viel zu langatmig. Die Seiten habe ich ab der Hälfte nur noch überflogen, um herauszufinden, warum Jack die Zweckehe unbedingt wollte. Persönlich hatte ich mir unter dem Grund etwas spektakuläreres erhofft. Nachdem ich den Grund erfahren habe, brach ich das Buch ab (etwa bei 3/4 des Buches). Ansonsten hat mir das Buch viel Spass gemacht, das Englisch war flüssig zu lesen und es war humorvoll geschrieben.

4 Sterne (Re-Read am 15.07.) Super Slowburn zwischen Rose (eher ein Sonnenschein) und Jack (eher grummelig). Ausgangspunkt ist eigentlich ihre Zweckehe, doch spätestens als Jack sich wegen einer Kopfverletzung um Rose kümmern muss, entstehen echte Gefühle. Kribbelig, sweet, aber am Ende kommt ein „Geheimnis“ heraus, das ich nicht völlig romantisch fand.

So conflicted over this book. Liked it in the beginning but the second half become boring and weird to me. The drama is too much and seems very forced. Jack is a smart man I'm sure he would have figured out that just talking to her and telling her about her con fiance would have been the best choice. And even if he didn't some things in the story were dragged out too much and seemed illogical like her being a b to him and then not signing the divorce papers. I don't know how to explain but they're both smart both of them should and could have found a better way to communicate but then again it's a romance book and drama is needed even if it's stupid like the premise of the story in the first place. I accepted it tho because it's fiction. I like the writer's writing style and I liked the couple together. Stalking aside, he seems like a nice dude I guess he just needs therapy and should apologize.

THIS BOOK WAS AMAZING Cute,funny,emotional, meaningful

communication is so sexy

2 ⭐️ I liked the slowburn aspect. There wasn't much plot, but that's okay for the story itself. At some points I enjoyed the relationship between the two, but that changed from moment to moment. He gave massive obsessive stalker vibes and that was a big no-no for me. If it wasnt for that and the whole storyline behind it, I would have rated it way higher. The only line that stuck to me: ,Rough life, stalker life’ - not a good sign I guess.
