This is probably more of a 2.5 rating unfortunately. I'm a sucker for fake dating and a free trip to Jamaica was the perfect romantic backdrop.
Unfortunately, I found that the relationship between Bailey and Cash was constant miscommunication (and not in a slow-burn-sexual-tension way). I also found that Cash's blurted confession didn't sit right and everything felt like it happened a little too soon. (Also, not talking about protection or testing before sex felt strange as well especially when they barely know each other).

Overall, it was light and fun but not quite for me.

4.5/5 ⭐️

Thank you NetGalley and publishers for the ARC of this book.

Full transparency, I have already read all of Anise’s titles and this request was to show my support as she’s one of my automatic buy authors.

Anise’s is a delightful writer and all her characters are so easily lovable. This is probably my favourite of all her books, mainly because I’m a sucker for forced proximity and fake dating tropes.
Regardless of your favourite tropes though, this is a great quick read for those nice summer evenings.
