Christina Lauren's books are always up in the air if I'll like them, but this was so cute, and I loved it!
Usually, I'm not too fond of billionaire, pretty women-feeling books, but this felt like it was trying to challenge those tropes a bit, although I am too anti-capitalist to REALLY like the ending of this book lol.
Our MCs, Liam and Anna, are very much opposites attract, and I liked how they eventually found ways for them to fit together. I would describe this book as a bit of "touch him and die" but like emotionally because Anna was immediately so protective of him, and I loved that! Marriage of convenience is a trope I love when it's done right, and it really worked perfectly here!
There are many tropes to love and a book that puts a billionaire in jail even if his kids still stay rich off of groceries, so both points are earned and lost there!
