The Spanish Love Deception (2021)
Reconhecer a proximidade dos nossos corpos disparou alarmes dentro da minha cabeça que impossibilitavam pensar em outra coisa.
Uma farsa de amor na Espanha
Resenha: Uma farsa de amor na Espanha
O verdadeiro enemies to love - de inimigos a amantes - te prende desde a primeira página até a ultima, e não disponibiliza tempo para se recompor.
Esse livrinho foi motivo da minha primeira ressaca literária de 2023.
Catalina (a protagonista do romance) é uma jovem espanhola que acaba mentindo para a família afirmando que tem um namorado americano e que vai sim, levar ele ao casamento de sua irmã, Isabel. NA ESPANHA. Poucas semanas antes do casamento, ela se vê em uma situação de desespero por não ter o bendito namorado, quando o seu príncipe em um cavalo branco aparece. Esse príncipe em especifico é o inimigo da Lina (apelido da Catalina) no escritório desde que ela começou a trabalhar lá. Entre provocações, hostilidades e encaradas super longas ela acaba aceitando Aaron Blackford como seu acompanhante. E o que acontece quando duas pessoas completamente opostas - e que se odeiam - ficam juntas durante 3 dias fingindo se gostarem? Atenção: alta dose de risadas, diálogos inesquecíveis e cenas do Aaron sem camisa. A química é certa desde o primeiro momento dos dois, e quando pensamos que não tem como melhorar, a página seguinte nos prova o contrário. Catalina é uma personagem incrivelmente engraçada e sociável, do tipo que dá muita vontade de se tornar amiga, sabe? E ela passa por tantas situações gente como a gente, que logo no primeiro capítulo você já torce para que sempre dê tudo certo. Já o Aaron, por mais fechado que ele seja, você acaba se apegando ao jeito reservado e gosta disso nele, o desenrolar e o plot da história tornam ele o mocinho mais legal dos romances - olha que responsa ;) No decorrer da leitura, também nos deparamos com temas muitos importantes como machismo e misoginia dentro das empresas e esses tópicos fazem parte do desenvolvimento do casal de uma maneira muito interessante de se acompanhar.
Leitura 5/5 - zero defeitos :') ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Newer authors need to stop writing so good because I get attached to their impeccable writing style and then see that they only have one or two books and I have to wait liek a year for another one
💬 What’s your favorite romance trope? . Happy Release Day to The Spanish Love Deception by @thebibliotheque! I’m reading this right now and AHHHHH!!! 😍🤗 If you’re a romance reader, do yourself a favor and download this book ASAP!! 💕 . The Spanish Love Deception is an enemies-to-lovers, fake-dating romantic comedy. Perfect for those looking for a steamy slow-burn romance with the sweetest Happily Ever After. . . . s u m m a r y ⇣ A wedding. A trip to Spain. The most infuriating man. And three days of pretending. Or in other words, a plan that will never work. Catalina Martín, finally, not single. Her family is happy to announce that she will bring her American boyfriend to her sister’s wedding. Everyone is invited to come and witness the most magical event of the year. That would certainly be tomorrow’s headline in the local newspaper of the small Spanish town I came from. Or the epitaph on my tombstone, seeing the turn my life had taken in the span of a phone call. Four weeks wasn’t a lot of time to find someone willing to cross the Atlantic–from NYC and all the way to Spain–for a wedding. Let alone, someone eager to play along my charade. But that didn’t mean I was desperate enough to bring the 6’4 blue eyed pain in my ass standing before me. Aaron Blackford. The man whose main occupation was making my blood boil had just offered himself to be my date. Right after inserting his nose in my business, calling me delusional, and calling himself my best option. See? Outrageous. Aggravating. Blood boiling. And much to my total despair, also right. Which left me with a surly and extra large dilemma in my hands. Was it worth the suffering to bring my colleague and bane of my existence as my fake boyfriend to my sister’s wedding? Or was I better off coming clean and facing the consequences of my panic induced lie? Like my abuela would say, que dios nos pille confesados. . . . h a s h t a g s ⇣ #thespanishlovedeception #elenaarmas #romancebooks #romancereadersofinstagram #contemporaryromance #enemiestolovers #booksbooksbooks #kindlebooks #bookphotography #bookporn #bookcommunity #kindlereads #bookstagram #girlsthatread #readersofinstagram #readersgonnaread https://www.instagram.com/p/CLpiU0BnksL/?igshid=11iy63x4zmad5
*screams from the rooftops I LOVED THIS BOOK* days later and I’m still thinking about this phenomenal and exhilarating book. Hands down, MUST READ!!! . • Sometimes a book comes into your life without you realizing how much you needed it. I can’t even begin to tell you how much love I have for this book. I was hook, line, and sinker from the very first words. I wasn’t even through the first chapter and I lost count at the number of times I had already laughed and swooned, and it only got better after that. . • I’m still on cloud 9, floating in the pure happiness of this story and it’s characters. Lina and Aaron without a doubt captured me and I was left soaring. . • From the very beginning I was hooked, put a fork in me I was done. I was so enamored with everything about this amazing debut novel by Elena Armas. I was swept away with the writing and I loved the Spanish that was interwoven throughout the book. Honestly this book just put the biggest smile on my face and it made me so extremely happy and giddy and I never wanted this book to end. . • Lina and Aaron were EVERYTHING. These two brought it all. The chemistry was sizzling. The banter was hilarious. Their sexual tension was through the roof, and they had me gnawing my lip and clinging to my seat just waiting and waiting for them to give in, oh the anticipation. I loved these two and their dynamic energy. Lina brought the playfulness and humor while Aaron was all seriousness and punctuality. And together they were a match made in heaven. I can go on and on, but trust me when I tell you you need this book in your lives! . • The Spanish Love Deception was an exceptional enemies to lovers, fake dating, slow burn, office romance novel that bought all the goodness. The writing, the story, the characters, and the Spanish culture was beyond amazing. Hands down one of my top favorite reads of the year. It also goes without saying that Aaron Blackford is my new favorite. After reading this I need more. I can’t wait to see what Elena gifts us next and I’m so happy to see her thrive and succeed. Felicidades, Elena . • • • @thebibliotheque #elenaarmas #thespanishlovedeception https://www.instagram.com/p/CLPxymPg7Xb/?igshid=1wuvmmueoutwa
