À propos de cette écoute
With nods to Bridget Jones and Pride and Prejudice, a charming #ownvoices queer holiday rom-com debut about a free-spirited social media astrologer who agrees to fake a relationship with an uptight actuary until New Year's Eve—with results not even the stars could predict!
After a disastrous blind date, Darcy Lowell is desperate to stop her well-meaning brother from playing matchmaker ever again. Love—and the inevitable heartbreak—is the last thing she wants. So she fibs and says her latest setup was a success. Darcy doesn't expect her lie to bite her in the ass.
Elle Jones, one of the astrologers behind the popular Twitter account, Oh My Stars, dreams of finding her soul mate. But she knows it is most assuredly not Darcy... a no-nonsense stick-in-the-mud, who is way too analytical, punctual, and skeptical for someone as free-spirited as Elle. When Darcy's brother—and Elle's new business partner—expresses how happy he is that they hit it off, Elle is baffled. Was Darcy on the same date? Because... awkward.
When Darcy begs Elle to play along, she agrees to pretend they're dating to save face. But with a few conditions: Darcy must help Elle navigate her own overbearing family over the holidays and their arrangement expires on New Year's Eve. The last thing they expect is to develop real feelings during a fake relationship.
But maybe opposites can attract when true love is written in the stars?

Awesome up until the last quarter
The book started off so so good, but was utterly spoiled by the end. I'm so sick of those inevitable and inimaginative misunderstandings at the end, especially when the situation could be resolved before it even started if only the characters chose to talk like actual human beings instead of actively looking for the worst thing they could say to help the situation. Romance is my favourite genre but this is the thing I'm dreading every single time I read a book; I want to see characters expressing their emotions, being there for each other, I want to see feelings of love and affection (i.e, the christmas tree scene which was incredibly powerful and poignant). Not silly misunderstandings spoiling everything every single time, for the characters to get back together in the last 5 lines of the book. Not drudging through pages and pages of the characters feeling like shit and making ME feel like shit for the entire day (I think it shows, I'm not usually this salty...)
Anyway, to sum it up: the book was great up until the incredibly frustrating misunderstanding, maybe it's my fault for putting expectations on a book, maybe not. Believe it or not, I'm still gonna keep good memories of this book; I'm just gonna do my best to forget the last quarter. The first three were amazing.
One last thing: those criticisms are directed towards the book itself, not the author. I hate it when people attack others because they didn't like what they produced, and it's absolutely not the case here. If you read this, I hope you have a good day, despite what I said 😊 And thank you still for writing, I'm still gonna check out your other works

Enjoyable with great sex scenes
A cute, entertaining read with some humor. The characters are well fleshed out and you can easily feel the chemistry between them. Excellent sex scenes and great narration, THOUGH I would have liked more of a difference between the two main characters voices.
