The Proposal by Maya HughesMy rating: 5 of 5 stars
I received this free eARC novel from the author. This is my honest review.
Leo and Zara are amazing characters!
Zara is such a strong person and she's very selfless. She is doing everything in her power to give her brother, Tyler, the best education, and also keeping him away from their drunk parents. Some siblings wouldn't care, but that is Zara's sole mission in life. She even gave up her dream to be stuck in a terrible job that kinda pays the bills. I seriously love her!
Leo has gone through a lot, from living and working his dream of a professionally football player, to having to retire early and have no idea what to do with his life. But he is such a sweetheart because he decided to help his uncle try to save their company. Even though he is by no means an event planner.
Seeing these two flash and fight each other about small things like linens was great. The tension was high and the attraction was of the charts. The reason they got "fake engaged" was not something I expected, so I appreciated the uniqueness of this novel and the events that happened.
Their slow burn romance didn't annoy me like most of these stories do because there was a lot of interaction, a lot of getting to know each other happened that filled the romance void. And they were always arguing over something which to me was suspenseful and foreplay.
I also loved all of the side characters. I'm excited to see each of Leos friends (Jameson, Everest, Hunter, and August) get their own story. Jameson is the one I'm looking forward to the most! And Andi... I really hope she ends up with one of them because I love her sassiness and take no prisoners attitude!
I'm so so so glad I got to read this novel and I CANNOT wait to see what else is in store for these characters!
