Synopsis :

A wedding. A trip to Spain. The most infuriating man. And three days of pretending. Or in other words, a plan that will never work.
Catalina Martín, finally, not single. Her family is happy to announce that she will bring her American boyfriend to her sister's wedding. Everyone is invited to come and witness the most magical event of the year.
That would certainly be tomorrow's headline in the local newspaper of the small Spanish town I came from. Or the epitaph on my tombstone, seeing the turn my life had taken in the span of a phone call.
Four weeks wasn't a lot of time to find someone willing to cross the Atlantic–from NYC and all the way to Spain–for a wedding. Let alone, someone eager to play along my charade. But that didn't mean I was desperate enough to bring the 6'4 blue eyed pain in my ass standing before me.
Aaron Blackford. The man whose main occupation was making my blood boil had just offered himself to be my date. Right after inserting his nose in my business, calling me delusional, and calling himself my best option. See? Outrageous. Aggravating. Blood boiling. And much to my total despair, also right. Which left me with a surly and extra large dilemma in my hands. Was it worth the suffering to bring my colleague and bane of my existence as my fake boyfriend to my sister's wedding? Or was I better off coming clean and facing the consequences of my panic induced lie?

"When I finally kiss you, there won't be any doubt in your mind that it is real."

"I'll give you the world," he said against my mouth. "The moon. The fucking stars. Anything you ask, it's yours. I'm yours."

"Being your friend has always been the last thing on my mind."

"He is not that good-looking. He's just tall."

"When Aaron finally spoke, his voice had a breathless texture, "You pinched my ass, Catalina." I had. And I was sorry. Sort of. Which didn't excuse the shameless, outright joyful grin that broke out on my face."

Mon avis :
Classique et sûr, une écriture agréable et un bon moment à passer avec une summer vibe qui redonne de l'énergie. Les personnages sont attachants et drôles et le scénario se déroule sans accro ! Une bonne lecture pour les amateurs de rom com/ennemies to lovers/fake dating, très bien combinés ici.
