I loved this book. I don’t really know where else to start other than that. This is my second book by Soliz—I read the first book in this series: Yours, For Now; and because I really enjoyed it, i wanted to continue the series. I love Soliz’s writing, and I really enjoy how she sets characters and plots up. In this one, we are introduced to Eva, who is a coffee shop owner in a small town and after a drunken night in Vegas ends up married to Max, a billionaire who needs to remain married for about a year to secure his position as CEO of his father’s conglomerate. Eva is practical, hard working, and a strong advocate for her small town while Max is charming, funny, and a smart businessman. Both characters are kind, and perhaps that’s what made me love them so much together. Max falls hard and fast for Eva, but he respects her boundaries throughout the story, and Eva is hesitant to fall because of her own familial trauma. They each grow individually and together throughout the story, and I really enjoyed that about Soliz’s writing.
The supporting characters in the small town are also a delightful read, and Max’s friends, some from book 1, also make appearances. Overall this is a lovely series, and I cannot recommend Soliz enough. I already picked up book 3, and I will be reading it soon!

I struggled with the beginning of this book. The two main characters wake up together in Vegas and have zero connection between them. But they were strangers so it was okay. However, they see each other again and there still wasn't any chemistry between them. For the first 35% of this book, their conversations were minimal, stillted and awkward. Because I wasn't invested in the romance, I started noticing all the little unrealistic aspects about the plot and I was not having a good time.
But then, around the 35% mark, the story took a complete 180. The characters finally have their first honest conversation, and everything starts to shift. This is truly a slow burn romance, Eva has a hard time letting herself be vulnerable and Max doesn't rush her. Their relationship evolves gradually—first becoming friendly, then transitioning into a tentative friendship before they finally acknowledge and act on their feelings. And once they do, the steamy scenes do not disappoint!
Max is swoon-worthy, a golden retriever who just wants to spoil Eva. Eva loves Max exactly as he is, never thinking he’s too much or asking him to change. Their dynamic is heartwarming and sweet, and by the end, I found myself fully rooting for their romance.

This story is such a perfect marriage of convenience story. The characters are both so great and I love seeing them both open up throughout the story. Also the slow burn is done so well in this! The audio narration was so perfect for how I thought these two would sound and that added to the story for me.
