Queen B’s Decree: Ella Maise is a new to me author, but I am a sucker for “fake relationships that become real” so I was quickly hooked on Marriage For One.
Jack is our grumpy, serious Hero and Rose is our optimistic and stubborn Heroine. The real beauty of this story is the fake relationship between Jack and Rose and how it slowly evolves into something real. Jack tried so hard to resist and stay professional and he literally couldn’t stop himself from falling for Rose. And Rose? She’s a strong and independent character that is so easy to relate to.
There are secrets that Jack has; the foreshadowing gave me anxiety. What happened? Will it ruin them?? Alas, you must read to find out.
Marriage For One was a wonderful, slow-burn of a romance. I was instantly gripped by these characters and invested in their happily-ever-after.
One of my favorite books of the year so far!
