(2.5 stars) I'm rounding this up to 3 stars only because this is the author's debut and, although derivative and trope-ridden, doesn't have many vocabulary and grammar mistakes, which is one of my personal bugaboos. But as far as characters and plot, it's very been there, done that. And, let's face it, much too long for the amount of actual plot. It' s an office hate-to-love/fake boyfriend rom-com. I think I've read enough of those to last me for a while. One of the better ones with a similar plot was Sally Thorne's THE HATING GAME from a few years back and Armas' story feels very copycat-ish without being as good. The only reason I decided to download this one was the Spanish connection, but that, unfortunately, turned out to be almost a nothing burger. Speaking of Spanish, somebody someday is going to have to figure out how to transpose to paper the flavor of speaking in another language to books and dialogue written in English without everybody sounding like that Cuban-American family in the old sit com QUE PASA, U.S.A (Am I the only one who remembers it?) or Dora the Explorer. You know, throwing in words or phrases in Spanish in a conversation just to make it feel "authentic." So far I haven't read a single book that doesn't annoy me with the way this is done, Armas' included. Inserting a SI instead of "yes" or some such does not turn it into Spanish. (Okay, I will admit that every once in a while Armas did a better job than other writers I've read, because of using complete sentences in Spanish but still...) But that's not all that annoyed me about the book. There are also the characters. Catalina's family is classic central casting Hispanic/Spanish and no one stands out as being anything but representative of a non-American culture. Yet nothing that happened in Spain was anything that couldn't have happened at a family reunion/wedding anywhere, other than the food and drink involved being slightly different and the people perhaps more exuberant than some of our more stuffy "americanos." (I'm married to a South American and lived for many years in S.A. surrounded by his family and friends and found that generally to be the case. People are people everywhere and life is life everywhere, as long as we're not talking about a totalitarian country or a country at war.) But, wait. I'm not done complaining. Let's forget about culture/country contrasts and comparisons. Let's talk about the romantic relationship here. Jeez Louise, talk about Failures to Communicate and Horridly Stubborn Behavior that goes on for much too long. Apparently attracted to each other from the get-go, these co-workers protect themselves by sending out indifference and/or hate vibes. Lina, in particular, is unpleasant and rude to Aaron because of one little thing she overheard in the first couple of days he joined the company. And Aaron, who understands him? Not me. He hides his attraction with a cold professional attitude towards Lina. Seems to me that if you like somebody, let them know. Don't act like a cold, indifferent jerk. And when Aaron finally does decide to try to show his feelings to Lina, she can't believe it's real. And a few times it's hard to blame her because he could be a bit inconsistent. Open and warm sometimes. Closed off and cold at others. At least Lina was consistently a pain in the patootie. But, not to worry, eventually these two do open up to each other and romance lovers may get all melty about it, but I thought it took way too long and made me read way too many pages with way too much circular repetition in their interactions.

This book could have been enjoyable if someone had helped the author cut about 200 pages of it. Instead we need to go through each conversation at least three times. First, have conversation, then listen to Lina recap it 1-2 times in her head, then have conversation again. Possibly follow up with “he can’t possibly have said-“ then recap the conversation again. Painful. And the amount of time Lina spends blah blah blahing random tangents and Aaron spends silently staring into space after being asked direct questions... how do these two people function in the world? It had its flashes of charm and charisma, and if we could reduce the book by about a third, I would probably have quite liked it.

Updated review *spoilers*: This book was about 100 pages too long. I ended up skipping through a lot of pages, especially towards the end. The main blocker for the two of them getting together was the fact that she dated her professor and her peers started whispers that she was sleeping her way to the head of her class. It ruined her life and she left Spain and moved to America. So....idk. Like...okayyyy. But really, that seems quite dramatic. And overall, the main female character was epically dramatic. It was actually very charming in the beginning but got very boring and annoying to read toward the end. That said, the tension was AMAZING and I had a few teary eyed moments in the early parts of the book where I really thought that the author did a great job of making you want them to be together. Was it an original story? No. Did it offer anything new to the genre? Not really. The Spain connection was nice. Traveling to a new city was fun. But the references to Ella Maise's Marriage for One really did this story no favors because it constantly made me think of that book, which is the best book in the marriage of convenience trope, in my opinion, and far FAR far far far superior to this book here. Last point – why was everyone else promoted ahead of the main female character? It kind of irked me that he became her boss and her bff also was promoted but she just stayed at the same level. Is she bad at her job? And the whole sexual harassment angle was actually nice to read about because it's a thing women in the workplace have to deal with all the time, but I did NOT like the Heroes response to it in the opening chapter. Essentially putting the onus on her for having to deal with it. Overall assessment: am I glad I read this book? eh. would I recommend it? probably not. If you're looking for a great marriage of convenience, go find Ella Maise. **** So I will update this review as I finish but I just spent 20 minutes trying to figure out if this author meant to reference Ella maise marriage for one here or if this is some kind of wild coincidence or maybe this is actually EMs pen name or they belong in the same universe and there’s an imprint going on. I can’t answer most of these questions still but the author does mention an Ella in her acknowledgements and there’s an EM review quote on Amazon which probably means it’s with EMs consent so not so creepy. Overall though. Note to the author. Very distracting for me as a reader.
