Do you love romance? You can never go wrong with Christina Lauren.
Roomies offers a lot of good vibes. I love the fake marriage, quirky dialogue and steamy romance. Itt's less angsty and more lighthearted compared to other books Christina Lauren has written. Each moments were cute and it's impossible not to smile on it.
It all started with Holland Bakker dropping by on the subway purposely just to see her crush. He's a good looking and talented street musician. She's mesmerize every time he strums his guitar and enjoys listening to his music. She never had the courage to initiate a conversation with him until one drunken night. Someone tried to rob her which led to an accident and the street musician rescued her.
After all. her crush's name wasn't Jack but Calvin McLoughlin. He's an Irish-born immigrant residing in U.S. illegally because his student visa expired years ago. An opportunity to be part of the Broadway comes in with Holland's help, he cannot take the offer given with his situation. Holland can't see anyone who's more qualified on the spot but Calvin. As a solution, he asks him to marry her. Well..fake marriage for a year so he can take the job.
How can I not love this book? It's addictively entertaining and the characters are so lovable! Holland is a beautiful woman inside and out. She's genuine, selfless and caring. I cannot think of flaws about her because she has a pleasing personality. I love her and so as Calvin. He's a simple guy who's very passionate about music. I love he doesn't follow a rockstar trend and ventures more on the classical side. He never gave up on his dream to become a musician despite of the risk of being deported. When he was in the peak of his career, he remained humble. He's charming and sexy in his own way.
Their relationship blossomed terrificly. Holland and Calvin's chemistry blended naturally. They were so great together and it wasn't love at first sight. It took a while for these two to fall in love and they shared a lot of awkward moments together. It's adorable and hilarious. Everything goes well between them because they continue to be passionate and inspire each other. They had low moments but they conquered it and helped a lot in the growth of their relationship. They're such a cute couple just like Holland's uncles Robert and Jeff (I love them so much!! They're supportive and loving uncles to Holland.)
Overall, I love this book. Christina Lauren's writing style improved over the years after their Beautiful and Wild Seasons series. I had so much fun reading those series and I love the sexiness of it. Roomies is now part of my favorite books list and if you are looking for something lighthearted yet sexy romance, I recommend this book.
