This was a super short, friends to lovers, easy to read book. I finished it in one sitting. There were some funny moments, some absolutely relatable moments, and two really good main characters.

This is a really sweet story, but it is not a #sweetromance, there are some pretty steamy moments in this book.

--------------------------------------
Helen Tsang is tired of the pitying looks. From her parents, her friends, and even the bubble tea shop guy, who recognized her from the video. Almost one year ago, some loser couldn’t mind their own damn business and filmed an unsuspecting Helen's very public break-up during what was supposed to be a romantic Valentine’s Day dinner. A video of her ex-boyfriend saying, "It's not me, it's you. You're holding me back" went viral.

Desperate to give everyone something else to talk about and with Valentine’s Day approaching once again, she asks her long-time friend Taylor Li to be her fake boyfriend, just to prove that she's moved on and hasn’t sworn off love. (Spoiler alert: She's totally sworn off love.) Taylor is the perfect option—single for once, and for some godforsaken reason, he loves Valentine’s Day.

But Helen didn't expect was how easy it would be to get Taylor on board, fitting right into the boyfriend-shaped hole in her life. All she wanted was a couple sickeningly sweet dates to fill her social feeds, not corny text messages of silly heart-shaped cakes, and bouquets of flowers that harbor hidden meanings. Wanting to be around his sunshine attitude and delicious forearms all the time? That definitely wasn't expected.

With February 14 quickly approaching, it's getting increasingly difficult to ignore her feelings, especially when she starts wishing it wasn’t all an act.

Oh God. What has she done?

I had not heard of this author previously, so was unsure of their writing style.

The tropes in this book are: insta-lust, only one bed, one-night stand and infertility.

It was clear to me after only a couple of chapters that this author is not for me. I found the emotional aspect of the plot to be missing and I could not relate in any way to the characters.

Also, while they claim to have fallen in love, the main male character, Lucas, had a child by his mistress (who he then employs), and the main female character, Juliana, had her own affair. With these two things going on, I didn’t buy the love aspect at all.

----------------------------
Two years ago, independent widow Juliana Sheldon spent a blissful night with the Viscount Audlington at an inn during a snowstorm, and the next morning, he left without a word. Juliana doesn’t realize how much his abandonment upset her until she encounters him at a matchmaking house party. He’d like to rekindle their affair, but Juliana prefers to torment him instead. Until she finally surrenders to temptation—only to be dismayed when he begins to talk about the one thing she doesn’t want: marriage.

Lucas Trask, heir to an earldom, has left his rakish reputation behind in favor of finally taking a wife. He never forgot Juliana and reconnecting with her seems like fate is telling him who he should wed. However, Lucas has a secret, one he’s never dared share with anyone. If he can convince Juliana to be his wife, he’ll reveal everything. But when tragedy strikes, he must leave again. This time, the runaway viscount may be all out of luck.

She trusted him with her life…

But what about her heart?

After the American Civil War propels widow Clara and her daughter to England, they’re given refuge by the enigmatic Marquess of Clairmount. Being the damsel in distress doesn’t come easy to independent Clara, so after finding his estate in disarray, she seizes her chance to help him. As she plays the role of marchioness, her attraction to the guarded marquess is bittersweet, as this Cinderella knows she doesn’t belong in his aristocratic world…

From Harlequin Historical: Your romantic escape to the past.

I love Lauri Robinson books, with the exception of a few, and this one didn’t disappoint. It is essentially a Cinderella retelling, with the main characters from different social classes. Being a Harlequin title, it follows their typical plot format, and of course, there is a happy ending.

Such a fun read, I finished it in a single sitting. I can’t wait for her next title!
