I f*cking loved this book soooo much the growth of there relationship throughout the book the extreme extreme slow burn the Grumpy x sunshine this book felt like watching a movie it was so long and detailed like a movie and not in a bad way at all there is like a 5 year age gap between the female and male main character both of the main characters are virgins i’m sensing a little bit of forced proximity throughout the book also at some point in this book it kinda reminded me of Twilight by Stephenie Meyer the mysteries the not a dramatic breakup 30 pages left of the book like other authors do communication in this book isn’t bad it mostly starts with the male main character not wanting to talk or tell the main female character anything hence the title i hope i used that word correctly oh well 😁😁 and yet again Mariana Zapata did not disappoint another book of hers i rated 5 stars⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

I love MZ but this wasn’t as good as some of her others. I still enjoyed it but not nearly as much as Lukov, Kulti, Winnipeg, or Rhodes. It was definitely very slow burn but I feel like it went from Alex is grumpy and hates her to he’s super sweet and keeping secrets in a split second. I also feel like the whole plot got built up so that something big would happen with the cartel or his grandma or something near the end but it was a little disappointing. I just feel like the end was kind of boring and they both clearly liked each other for so long and there was absolutely nothing stopping them from getting together, but it still dragged out just because. It felt like a lot was left unfinished. Still enjoyed it, there were a few funny and cute parts but not my favorite by MZ for sure.
