Tessa’s best book to date
🍇🍷𝒜𝑅𝒞 𝑅𝑒𝓋𝒾𝑒𝓌🍷🍇𝑼𝒏𝒇𝒐𝒓𝒕𝒖𝒏𝒂𝒕𝒆𝒍𝒚 𝒀𝒐𝒖𝒓𝒔By: @tessabaileyisanauthor⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 5/5 Stars𝐑𝐞𝐚𝐝 𝐭𝐡𝐢𝐬 𝐢𝐟 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐥𝐨𝐯𝐞:💜Marriage of Convenience💜Enemies to Lovers💜Constant Banter💜Laugh Out Loud Moments💜He Falls FirstWhen I buddy read Secretly Yours, I was instantly attracted to Natalie and her dry sense of humor. Seeing her and August interact in the first book was hilarious and once I knew she had her own book coming I was practically salivating waiting for it!Cut to my new favorite book by Tessa Bailey! This is a masterpiece. Like, no joke. I was reading it in the airport and could not stop myself from laughing out loud like a hyena and people thought I was deranged.After Secretly Yours, Natalie and August are “enemies” in that they can’t stop from throwing insults and jabs at one another every time they see each other. Underneath this facade, they’re both so attracted to one another and get off on getting the other riled up. When Natalie learns she can’t access her trust fund she needs to start her own finance startup unless she is married, insert ex-Navy Seal, August Cates. August can’t get a bank loan to save his friends winery dream, but with Natalie, a winery heiress, as his wife and partner, he just might be able to try to salvage his god-awful winery.The banter, the humor, the jokes! It was perfection! The absolutely hilarious one liners got me every time. Underneath all the humor though, August and Natalie are two people hardened by life on the outside but marshmallows on the inside. Their relationship works so well partly because they both can be brutally honest with each other and that they have an extreme sense of loyalty. It also helps that August is a literal Sex God 🤷🏼♀️ It was so beautiful to watch them drop their guards and fully dive into their “sham marriage”.Thank you @avonbooks & @netgalley for this eARC and thank you @tessabaileyisanauthor & Avon Books for this early physical copy!🍇ᴜɴꜰᴏʀᴛᴜɴᴀᴛᴇʟʏ ʏᴏᴜʀꜱ ʀᴇʟᴇᴀꜱᴇꜱ ᴊᴜɴᴇ 6ᴛʜ!🍇Old review:This might be my new favorite book by Tessa!

Just like Tessa said in her readers note, it only works if he’s been obsessed with her from the start. And my god, August LOVED Natalie from the very beginning. I love the constant correction these two went through in order to stop using jabs as a defense mechanism in order to let the other person in. It was so real and just showed how these two had such great chemistry and their willingness to be what the other needed.I could go on and on, and I just might another time. But this was perfect. No notes. Just buy it!

This book had such a fun premise. I actually loved how the marriage of convenience played into the plot. That isn't an easy trope to write in a believable way, and the plot frustration in the opening of the book played perfectly into the buildup.
So, Ciara, why the dock of stars? Well... I absolutely LOATHE 3rd act breakup/miscommunication that is completely unnecessary and unavoidable. And this book has that. These are grown adults (albeit adults with some baggage) and you're telling me that they cannot express their feelings? Uh uh. No ma'am. No sir. No way. It frustrates me to no end. Some communication is completely expected in human relationships, sure, but what goes down between Natalie and August is unbelievably infuriating.
Other than that, I truly enjoyed this book. I would recommend it if you typically enjoy Tessa Bailey and your run-of-the-mill Hallmark meets Romance Novels meets Sugar and Spice. It's a clever plot, solid characters, just some frustrating miscommunication that will make you want to chuck your book across the room (RIP my paperback copy).
This book has, I would say, 3.5/5 Spice and Vulgarity.
3.5... but I couldn't bring myself to round up

Listen. Let me begin by saying that the rating system we use is overly flawed. A 5-star book should be OUTSTANDING to you. A 4-star book should be SO GOOD to you. But then here is where we go awry... a 3-star book should simply be an averagely good book... but most people shun 3-stars like the plague... well, I believe that a 3-star book is a solidly enjoyable read, but not one that I would ever reread and one that wouldn't be at the forefront of my brain to recommend to others. Now that we've cleared that up, let's begin.Reviewed in the United States on September 27, 2023

I love vulnerability in my main characters and while August was a rough around the edges and tough ex-Navy SEAL, and Natalie clearly projected sharp edges and no nonsense, they both had such deep emotions and hopes and sadness they were carrying with them. Once they allowed themselves to show that to each other it was beautiful. Particularly August just seemed to KNOW what Natalie needed out of him as a partner. It was so sweet.
If you have never read a Tessa Bailey book before just know that her steamy scenes and dirty talk should be the industry standard. Wow. These two characters nearly set my book on fire.
I just felt like this was the first book in awhile where everything clicked for me. The character development, the dialogue, setting, plot…it was all just wonderful. It’s hard to believe that I really did NOT like the first book in this series (you can totally read this one as a standalone).
