Nice and heartwarming but slow to start. I was expecting a marriage of convenience type of romance, however the book was more focused on the heroine's self growth, and her search for purpose and vocation. The romance seemed to be there to boost her ego and make her go get her dreams, but everything was resolved far to quickly and unrealistically. I think this writing duo has produced better works, and I would recommend skipping this one, unless the forced cohabitation and contract marriage is one of your favorite tropes. I usually enjoy my chick lit cute and sweet and funny, however this book failed to deliver the comedy. Plus I could have used more interaction between Calvin and Holland to make the connection more poignant.
