Summary

If anyone ever said being an adult was easy, they hadn't been one long enough. Diana Casillas can admit it: she doesn't know what the hell she's doing half the time. How she's made it through the last two years of her life without killing anyone is nothing short of a miracle. Being a grown-up wasn't supposed to be so hard. With a new house, two little boys she inherited in the most painful possible way, a giant dog, a job she usually loves, more than enough family, and friends, she has almost everything she could ever ask for. Except for a boyfriend. Or a husband. But who needs either one of those?

Absolutely loved this book! My favourite to go to audible book has always been Mariana's "Under Locke", so I was really excited to see this and it did not disappoint. Callie Dalton did a great job as always and It was great to see other characters from her other books make small cameo appearances. I would thoroughly recommend any of Mariana Zapata's books.

Love a slow burn!

I’m not usually a fan of slow burn (I’m impatient) but MZ is the one I make an exception for as the stories are so well written there’s always lots going on to keep me occupied whilst the two main characters dance around each other and get their act together.

This though was agonisingly slow, and even though I enjoyed the listen (Callie Dalton doing a wonderful job as always), I felt that this one was a wee bit dragged out even for MZ hence the four stars.

We first met Dianna in Wall of Winnipeg; she is the bff of Vanessa, and had rather a torrid time in WoW. We meet her a few years later, as a single parent bringing up her brother’s two boys after her brother’s death. Dallas is the taciturn, grumpy, rude, technically married, neighbour across the road, who jumps to all sorts of conclusions about Diana’s intentions, before they become friends and eventually more. There are a host of entertaining side characters, including the “mean girl”, friends, over critical mum, and of course the two boys who both are just gorgeous. We even get a few cameo appearances including Vanessa and Aiden from Wall of Winnipeg, Trip, Iris and an uncredited Dex (my favourite) from Under Locke and Sal and Kulti from Kulti.

If you can cope with the agonising slowness of the burn the it’s definite worth a credit.

Agonisingly slow burn

I love Mariana Zapata. This book had such a touching dynamic between the fmc and her nephews which made me cry. That was the star of the show for me. However as always the romance was still present and slow burn and had me squealing a few times. Would recommend

Fun, cute, and touching, read!

I am not usually a slow burn girly but Mariana Zapatas books just work for me and have quickly become comfort reads of mine. I just love how she develops the relationships between her MCs. This is one of my favourites of hers for sure.

Love This!
