4 Stars - I highly recommend if you enjoy contemporary romance, especially with a lot of humor. When Olive's twin sister contracts food poisioning during her wedding, she has to take her place on her (free) honeymoon. The only catch? It's nontransferable, so Olive will have to pretend to be her sister, and that she is married to the groom's brother. Who just happens to be the rudest man on the planet. Ethan and Olive expect to give each other space in Hawaii, but when they run into Olive's new boss and Ethan's ex things become more complicated. Where does pretending begin and end? This book was SO. FUNNY. I loved Olive and Ethan, they were so funny and bantery. I also liked that the both had more fleshed out personalities than the characters in the last CL book. It cracked me up that they kept calling each other by the wrong names, and all of their hate-to-love sparring was so funny. I thought all of the situations that they ended up in throughout the book were incredibly comical and/or cringe worthy as well. Plus, a fake honeymoon and a vacation-centered romance novel is just pretty darn fun. I could have dealt with it being a bit more of a slow burn, and I felt like the dramatic turning point was a little drawn out, but overall I really liked this book. I think it was probably my second favorite CL book so far after Josh and Hazel. Highly recommend if you enjoy contemporary romance and humorous women's fiction.
