Readers say *The Paradise Problem* is a witty, heartfelt rom-com with sharp banter, engaging fake-dating, and relatable characters like Anna’s rebelli...
This was much better than I thought it would be. It appealed to my millennial soul, and I appreciated the references. It was a fun, quick read, that was easy to get through. If you need a not-too-sweet but still romantic palate cleanser, this is a good book to break up the mysteries, thrillers, and fantasy books!
Oh look, another book that has me fully ignoring my responsibilities because The Paradise Problem grabbed me by the wrist (metaphorically, unfortunately) and refused to let go. Fake marriage? Check. Rich people shenanigans? Check. A heroine who is one bad day away from fighting a one-percenter in a Whole Foods parking lot? Double check.
Anna thought she signed those divorce papers, but turns out, life had other plans. Specifically, plans that involve her accidental husband West needing to stay married so he can claim his one-hundred-million-dollar inheritance. Must be nice, right? Meanwhile, Anna is out here just trying to afford groceries. Naturally, hijinks ensue, because nothing says "romantic tension" like reuniting with your estranged spouse to keep up appearances for his terrifyingly rich family.
West, our reluctant billionaire-in-waiting, is the perfect blend of charming and exasperated. And Anna? Absolute queen. Foul-mouthed, artistic, and aggressively herself in the best way possible. The chemistry? Off the charts. The banter? So good I considered highlighting half the book. And the slow realization that maybe, just maybe, their marriage wasn’t such a mistake after all? Ah-mazing.
So yeah, five stars, because I’m a sucker for a romance that mixes fake marriage with actual feelings, and I’ll be emotionally unavailable while recovering from how good this was.
