AAAAA! Ana you nasty girl! Ok this was amaze balls. I adore Dante and Vivian and their chemistry is amazing. Dante is the CRO of one of the largest companies in the world and Vivian is the heiress to a jewelry conglomerate. When Vivians father blackmails Dante into an arranged marriage, he uses all his resources to destroy the evidence while maintaining public apparences with Vivian. The relationship felt very raw and real between the disastrous meeting and very cold discussions for months. They graduate into something more electric and it's so fun to read! My only complaint is that I feel like the characters are kinda stagnant? Like Vivian and Dante both grow and change but they don't feel much different? For some reason that bothers me. Otherwise is amazing!!!

Updated rankings... (changed my mind on a few things.

1. Bridget/Rhys
2. Jules/Josh
3. Alex/Ava
4. Vivian/Dante
5. Stella/Christian 

Vivian and Dante seemed really similar to Ava/Alex, with family betrayl and what not. Still liked their banter, which is why their better than Stella/Christian. But the spicy scenes were a little stale, hence 4th place. Funny, loved Vivian's sass. Can't wait for Isabella/Kai.
