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!
Christina Lauren, the bestselling author duo behind such books as The Unhoneymooners and Love and Other Words, has done it again with The Paradise Problem. This novel of two damaged souls who find themselves faking it 'til they make it weaves together biting wit, charm, and heart, creating a captivating story that is hard to put down.
The book follows the (initially) tactless, uncouth, unpretentious and unemployed Anna Green and Liam "West" Weston (Anna's reserved and composed "ex"-husband with daddy issues) as they navigate a fake marriage on a luxurious island in an attempt to secure an inheritance. What begins as a practical and mutually beneficial arrangement soon blossoms into something unexpected and beautiful amid the bickering and biting of West's family. The characters are well-developed, with Anna's quirky and creative spirit balancing perfectly with Liam's introspective and family-oriented nature.
Christina Lauren shines in this novel with sharp dialogue, humorous situations, and heartfelt moments. The tropical island setting adds an extra layer of allure, making it a perfect escape for readers.
The Paradise Problem is a delightful mix of romance, humor, family complexities, and spice, and a story that can be surprising in its emotional depth. If you're looking for a feel-good romance with relatable characters and a touch of escapism, this book is a must-read.
(Rounded up from 4.5 stars.)

Laugh out loud funny! Love the banter between the two main characters. Anna Green might be one of my favorite romance characters.
