Description
The next sparkling and swoony enemies-to-lovers rom-com from the author of the TikTok-hit A Brush with Love and Lizzie Blake's Best Mistake.
'Mazey Eddings's writing is authentic, emotional, and intensely romantic! To me, it's like a Taylor Swift song in book form' Ali Hazelwood, New York Times bestselling author
Readers gave A Brush with Love FIVE SHINING STARS!
'Swoony, steamy, adorable . . . Read. This. Book. You won't be disappointed. It's a keeper and Mazey Eddings is on my auto-read list forever'
'There was so much to love about this book . . . Thank you to Mazey Eddings for this romance with its messy, true, and painfully real representation of anxiety . . . We need more books like this in the world'
............................................
Some facts are indisputable:
Gravity exists.
Indira doesn't like Jude.
Jude doesn't like Indira.
Indira has everything together: an amazing job, a boyfriend, a car. What more could a late twenty-something want? Well, not walking in on her boyfriend with another woman, for one thing.
Her childhood enemy, Jude, has nothing together. Having spent three years travelling the world to treat emergencies and humanitarian crises, a quick trip home for his best friend's wedding has him struggling to readjust.
Thrust into an elaborate (and ridiculously drawn out) wedding, Jude and Indira - who can't seem to escape her ex and his new girlfriend - are both soon at breaking point.
Their solution? A bargain to be each other's fake dates.
But what happens when the forced proximity and fake displays of affection start to feel a bit too . . . real?

Raves for Mazey Eddings!
'Blends sweetness, breathless romance, and moments of striking vulnerability' HELEN HOANG
'Prepare to smile, laugh, and cry your way through this witty, fast-paced rom-com' EVIE DUNMORE
'Laugh-out-loud funny, almost unbearably cute' ROSIE DANAN
'A contemporary romance masterpiece . . . The most intoxicating slow burn I've read in ages' RACHEL LYNN SOLOMON
'Funny and cute while also exploring serious topics, powerfully underscoring the truth that relationships require work, and that happy endings are for everyone' SARAH HOGLE
'Brims with emotional depth, whip-smart banter, and sizzling chemistry' CHLOE LIESE

Hat mich leider nicht begeistert
Indria und Jude kennen sich seit ihrer Kindheit und haben nicht unbedingt das beste Verhältnis zueinander. Doch da die Hochzeit von Indrias Bruder ansteht und ihr ex auch eingeladen ist, spielen die beiden ein Paar. Beide Protagonisten haben schwierige Vergangenheiten und keine einfachen Leben. Doch leider hat sich das für mich alles nur gezogen. Und war an vielen Stellen auch vorhersehbar.
Achtung Spoiler
Es war wirklich gut! Das Buch beinhalte verschiedene Themen wie posttraumatische Störungen sowie auch die Folgen einer nicht vorhandenen Vaterfigur. Ich habe die Balance zwischen Indira und Jude geliebt. Die beiden sind miteinander verständnisvoll umgegangen und haben sich gegenseitig Zeit gelassen. Auch das unterstützen und die gleichzeitige Hartnäckigkeit von Indira hat viel zum Geschehen beigetragen. Durch die Kommunikation miteinander entstand kein überflüssiges Drama der Protagonisten, weshalb es umso besser war.
Easy love story, but didn’t catch me
Found this book with high recommendations on Booktok as a love story with many emotions and vulnerable moments. I do agree, but maybe my expectations were too high. It took half of the book to begin the first intimate spicy moment, and this first half had me bored. I expected the book to tell more about the marriage, but 80% was just the time before. So after all, a nice little love story, dealing with trauma and therapy, could have went deeper.
