Such a good book! And the epilogue was absolutely adorable :) I can’t remember the last time I’d read such a cute epilogue.
Luca was downright obsessed with Valentina and I ate it up. Val’s feelings and insecurities were so valid. Both characters had past relationships that made them untrustworthy in their marriage, and they both had insecurities that needed constant reassurance. But by the end of the book they were without a doubt extremely secure in their marriage.
This also made me so excited for the next book which I believe is Dion and Faye. I’m just excited for what’s to come and I should probably read The Wrong Bride as well!

At this point I need financial compensation for the amount of money I spent on tissues to dry my tears!!
I am not the biggest fan of the fake dating trope, but lordy, Cat had me eating those words in The Temporary Wife- I couldn’t get enough!!! I knew these two were going to be a wild ride at the end of book 1, but I was so pleasantly surprised by where Cat lead us. I cackled, I cried, I got butterflies, and most importantly I fell in love with the love that Lucca and Valentina❤️
