bookedbymadeline's review against another edition
I loved the first two books in the series but I just couldn’t finish this one. Neither character has a lot of depth, they’re one dimensional and the “enemies to lovers” isn’t accurate-they stop being enemies a little too quickly. Plus there’s no witty banter or chemistry between Theo and Maddie. I’ve set this aside twice and I’m calling it quits but will continue with the rest of the series.

I wanted to love this but I just got so annoyed. But the ending. 🥰🥰🥰
I love how all of them came together. Also when Alexa locked them in the closet. 💀 both my favorite parts.

I loved both Maddie and Theo in The Wedding Date, so I was super excited to see they had their own book. This only took me so long to read because of the time I spent in the hospital and the days afterward where I couldn’t read on my phone. It was a fun story with fun characters and banter. I especially liked the tiny Nikole and Carlos cameos, a.k.a. the couple from The Proposal. They’re iconic. As for this book, there were a few small things I didn’t like, the most noticeable being the occasionally cheesy dialogue, but it was still a lighthearted, mostly enjoyable read. I loved Alexa’s intervention after Maddie and Theo’s big fight. I hope to see more of these characters in Guillory’s other books, which I’ll probably read sometime soon.

Medical content is tagged because there’s a political rally about 2/3 through the book, and at the rally, a couple of protesters turn violent. This isn’t described in much detail. However, Theo gets a concussion from a protester and spends a few hours in the hospital. After he goes home, there’s more discussion about his concussion and how’s he’s doing.klavanger's review against another edition

I didn’t like this one as much as the other two in this series, but still enjoyed it! I had a little bit of a hard time understanding Theo and what his character was supposed to be. But still a very fun, and fast, rom-com!!
