The Wrong Bride by Catharina Maura
Content Warnings: sexual content, toxic relationships, toxic friendships, and emotional cheating.
Okay look...I started reading this because I saw a quote from like the 3rd or 4th book...and you know me...I love to immerse myself into entire worlds. Even saying that I knew this book wasn't for me, which is why I'm not giving a rating to my review.
In general I don't read books where someone hooked up with one sibling and then immediately start a relationship with another one. When it's in a fantasy and it's an arranged marriage where the two who are engaged never meet and a sibling steps into the wedding...I LOVE that shit...but it's rare for me to like the premise in a contemporary novel.
Knowing this premise wasn't for me I was still initially intrigued by the friendship between the two main characters and wanted to see how it would play out in their marriage. The emotional back and forth within themselves and then with each other...quickly became grating...I'm surprised my eyes didn't stay in a rolled position tbh.
Although this one definitely grated on my nerves I am excited to read book two and hope that I enjoy it and can continue with the series.
