There’s nothing not to like about this standalone CLo gem! Olive is my girl and her circumstances made me cringe, then laugh, then pine, then laugh, then cringe, then sigh. Cheers to the queens of quirky plot twists and the best and most unexpected happily ever afters!!!!! |
This book was adorable. I am a huge fan of the Christina Lauren writing duo, and this book was just as amazing as some of my other favorites, like Roomies and Josh and Hazel's Guide to Not Dating. It took the enemies-to-lovers and fake dating tropes and really played well with them. I was especially a fan of Olive's character—she was bold and funny and definitely deserved to share in some of her sister's good luck! |
Christina Lauren always kill the game 10/10. Sweet, funny, a perfect summer read. They will never not be an instant read for me! The concept of this one was also hilarious. |
As a huge fan of Christina Lauren, I know I will love anything they put out but this book? THIS BOOK? Omg this may be one of my favorites they've written. It may not be as steamy as others they have put out but from the messy start to Olive and Ethan's adventure, to the super sweet ending, I loved every word. This is a must read for any romance fan! |
Another amazing read! I love this writing duo!!! Enemies to lovers is one of my favorite tropes and this one didn't disappoint. A quick, fun, and witty 5 star read that will keep you up past your bedtime ;) |

I highly enjoyed this book by C.Lo! It is my new favorite book by them and I have already re-read it. The holiday vibes, the Hawaii setting, and a hate to love trope are pretty much all things that I love in a romance novel. 5 stars. |
I am not a huge romance fan, like- at all, but Christina Lauren is one of maybe three romance writers I pick up. Fun and light and a tropical vacation from the thrillers I normally read! |

A well written romance. Good plot and character dynamics. Great setting. This is my unbiased review. |
This is hands down one of my favorite titles I have read from Christina Lauren! If you love hate-to-love romances, this is the book for you. It has the perfect amount of sassy and angst, while also having incredible chemistry and romance at the same time. I loved all of the characters, and had just as much fun reading about them in Hawaii as I did at home. Very much worth the read! |

This was my first Christina Lauren and it will definitely not be my last. This combines the enemies-to-lovers trope with the pretend-to-be-lovers trope and it works really well. Steamy and fun, not to be missed. |
Full of sweet heat and romance. Not to mention a lot of laughter and surprises! This story made me roll my eyes and giggle simultaneously. It made me melt, swoon, and rage as well. I’m glad I gave this story the opportunity to make me smile because the first couple of chapters made me cringe. I was waiting for the right time to take a chance on this writer duo and I found their hilarity to be exactly what I needed to pick me up from the infamous reader’s slump. If you’re looking for a second-chance, unlikely coupling with two unique characters, this story will make your list of great reads! |
This is my first book by Christina Lauren and I'm surprised and sad it's taken me this long. This is laugh out loud funny. Hate to lust to love with just the right amount of humor, heat, and drama. I really enjoyed this and am looking forward to exploring this author some more. |
This book is great! Would definitely recommend. Thanks so much to NetGalley and the publisher for the ARC. |

The Unhoneymooners is a fun, light read that anyone who enjoys "enemies to lovers" tales will enjoy. It's also very funny, and quite sweet. |
I adored The Unhoneymooners! It's the quintessential summer read. Enemies-to-lovers? Hilarious unexpected trip? Yes, I'm here for all of it. I'm embarrassed to say this was my very first Christina Lauren read. Now, I'm excited to read *all* of their books. If you're looking for a little escape, this one's it. |
I flew through this book! Christina Lauren does it once again. A swoon-worthy hate-to-love romance, a tropical getaway, and all the laugh out loud moments that this duo does best are what made this one of my favorite Christina Lauren reads. I would highly recommend this romantic comedy! |
Such a fun and entertaining rom-com, I read it twice! Hate-to-love is one of my favorite tropes, and Christina Lauren did it so well. The only reason this didn't get a full five stars from me is because I felt like the big issue between two of the characters, the same thing that kept Olive and Ethan apart from each other toward the end of the book, was really messed up. I didn't like that it was the conflict, but maybe that's a "me" issue. Other than that, I really enjoyed this story! |

Olive is always running from bad luck until her sisters wedding when everyone but her and the best man, who also is the grooms brother, dodge food poisoning. Ami, the bride and also Olives’ twin sister, won an all inclusive Honeymoon in Hawaii and is begging Olive to use it. In order to use her prize Olive will have to take Ethan, the grooms brother, with her. Can they pull it off and have an amazing vacation? There is only one catch! Olive and Ethan can’t stand each other! There are many encounters that they have to overcome and will they be able to have a good time. There is also the families and the betrayals. This was a fun read. |

This title was positively hilarious. I haven't read such engaging dialogue in forever. In fact, this was the start to a new fan base of Christina Lauren at my library. This was the first title and we have continued to read and laugh and enjoy the story. It would make a great book club read! |
