anna_6792 shared a tip "Okay I did it! I've now read this book. And it was good! This was my 1st sports romance and it was well written. Loved Vanessa she was hilarious. The characters were great! Loved that ending!"

eloshik shared a tip "This book covers family expectations, more so family not choosing you over their own prejudice. It also cover abuse, and how it can mentally block you from forming real connections."

etta_ross shared a tip "I liked the characters ok. It was just so slow, so so so slow. There's was way too much repetitive inner dialog. I appreciated that it was realistic (in the fact that enemies to friends to lovers is in reality slow process), but I read books too get swept up, and there were only a few times in the last 2% of the book that did that..."

andrea_9990 shared a tip "Maybe it’s just me, but I didn’t love this. It could be because I listened to it on audiobook and found the narrators voice to be incredibly annoying, but it didn’t live up to the hype for me. I’ve found “Wait For It” by MZ to be more up my alley."

amber_yusko shared a tip "Holy SLOW BURN!! Wow this took a while. I liked this book a lot but you have to be patient. I would have liked to have had more information in specific scenes rather than short scenes that change frequently and more dialogue would have been nice."

lets_talk_books shared a tip "Ugh the way this book gave me butterflies 🥰 this was my first Mariana Zapata book and it was amazing. First time reading a marriage of convenience trope which honestly I didn’t think I would like but loved it ❤️ and I usually hate slow burn but I was just sucked in by the first page"

monica_100 shared a tip "I will say… this is a slow burn and one person POV. If u don’t like long long lines of character inner monologue.. u won’t like this. I don’t enjoy slow burn at all but this is better than Spanish Love Deception I think. 3.75-4/5 stars"

jessi_simon shared a tip "I may be alone in this, but meh. Ultimately, the reason I finished this book was because I was so close to finishing it that I didn’t want to give up. I like a slow burn, but this felt like a snail and then when it got good, it was over"

mayaa_n shared a tip "I loved this book so much. The character development that Aiden showed is fabulous. Mariana Zapata is the queen of slowburn and she did very very well with this book!! It is also extremely well written."

katiebee shared a tip "Predictable ending but a nice read. I definitely enjoyed in, couldn’t put it down till I was done! The inter-character relationships and the way they get fleshed out and given such in depth personalities won me over as well."

shyanne_shilson shared a tip "This is the first book that I discovered what 'slow-burn' is and if that's what you're looking for, not only read this but read anything by Mariana Zapata. She's the slow-burn queen and no on will ever take her title. I not only felll in love with the characters but the story as well. I loved everything about this book and there's nothing more that I need to say other than that. LOVE, LOVE, LOVE, LOVE, LOVE..."

ava_funderburgh_9645 shared a tip "This was the very first book of Mariana Zapatista that I ever read and it made me fall in love with her other books to! If you are on the fence if you should read it, I say GO FOR IT!"

sarah_kodel shared a tip "Wow I’m still thinking about this book a week after I finished it !! My first Zapata book and I don’t want to read anything by any other author at the moment because nothing compares to how good this it and how it made me feel!!!"

janey_campa shared a tip "Slow Burn, beautifully painful, Boss & Assistant, Grumpy/Sunshine, Marriage of convenience, help with panic attacks. Checks Every Box"

kaylee_thomas_5788 shared a tip "Mariana Zapata, as always, is the absolute queen of slowburn. Strong MC wgo doesn't let anyone walk over her and amazing love interest"

destiny_aguilar_5711 shared a tip "I honestly loved this gave it four stars but honestly loved how much detail was in the book will so be reading more from this author"

emelia_goddard shared a tip "Absolutely amazing! Definitely my favorite book so far, and trust me I've read alot. At the beginning it's kinda hard to get through, but after reading awhile and the characters start to evolve, the book is very funny and relatable at times."

sammys shared a tip "First ever slow burn romance novel and I can no longer read any other enemies to lovers paced book ever again 😍#romance #slowburnromance"

kayla_penner_5304 shared a tip "The whole book was an awkward yet slow burn that I actually really got into but geez. You can’t slow burn for thirty chapters and then rush through everything else in one chapter at the end.. didn’t love how cramped the ending was."

kaginger2000 shared a tip "One of the best books I have read! The author really took her time developing their relationship and there wasn’t a lot of unnecessary drama between the two love interests. Would definitely recommend!"

cat_house shared a tip "My all time favorite! This slow burn romance has outstanding story development, interesting characters and perfect pace! Highly recommend!"

emiwen shared a tip "Read it, read it NOW‼️ Zapata combines several different tropes in Winnipeg (slow burn, marriage of convenience, sports romance), but blends them together so well — I could not stop reading in anticipation of when Aiden and Vanessa FINALLY get together. 1000/10, yes it’s rlly that good. #romance#slowburn#marriageofconvenience#sportsromance"
