"Be still my heart!❤️ Luca Windsor is the dream billionaire husband who will wage a war for you and speaks words of reassurance that will have you rolling and bawling like crazy. This book is the ultimate happy ever after of any billionaire romance. Valentina is feisty, strong and confident that tames a ruthless billionaire. My first Catharina Maira read and definitely not the last 😊👍🏻"
"Maura always does an exceptional job when it comes to her books but Luca & Valentina’s story didn’t intrigue me as much as the first (Ares & Raven) & third book (Dion & Faye). Out of the Windsors’ series, TUM would have to my most favorite, the wrong bride then temporary wife. While each book has their own unique stories, I do see a little repetitiveness as mentioned by other reviewers. Nonetheless it was still enjoyable! While book 1 & 3, Grandma Anne didn’t annoy me - I did find her a little annoying in this one. What I loved most from this book, was that Val’s family (aside from her father) were very loving towards her & she didn’t come from a messed up family compare to book 1 & 3. Once again, the Windsors siblings succeeds in winning my heart, especially the moment of heart to heart shared between Dion & Val. Luca & Val’s relationship had a lot of insecurities but I’m glad they were able to work through it & fight until the end. The 10 years later epilogue was a bonus to the story! Easily one of my top favorite series this year."
"<b>“You are the love of my life, and I will never stop fighting for you, for us. I know that I’m not worthy of you, Valentina, but you truly are the light in my life. You brighten up my darkest days, and you give me purpose when everything feels hopeless. At the core of all that I am, there is you. Until I breathe my last breath, that will be true.”</b><br/><br/>This was cute and also very dramatic the characters were at a 10 they needed to be at a 5 lol. It was easy to read, smutty and I like the characters and family. I think I like workplace romance, it may be slightly unethical sometimes but it hardly ever disappoints. This book was so angsty and not always in a good way. There were so many things tearing Luca and Valentina apart and some of the stuff felt repetitive and it was tiring. Grandma Windsor in this series has way too much time on her hand she’s a little annoying with her matchmaking and arranged marriages. There’s a lot of **** in this and it was okay but I’m so tired of seeing “good girl” in **** let’s change it up. This book is probably closer to 3.5 ⭐️ but I’ll give it a 4 because of the **** scene that was in public in front of Luca’s ex"
