4.5⭐️I always count down until I can read the next CL book, and ran to read The Paradise Problem the second I got my hands on it.

Synopsis: Five years ago Anna agreed to fake marry Liam in order to get subsidized housing at UCLA and believed she had signed the divorce papers after graduation. That is until Liam shows up on her doorstep telling her they are still legally married and that he now needs her to be his fake wife for his sister’s wedding.

What I loved:
-This book took one of my favorite tropes, a marriage of convenience, and put a unique twist on it
-The tropical island setting was vividly described. I felt like I was out there with Liam and Anna
-All the wedding shenanigans
-How even when Anna was putting on an act in front of Liam’s uptight family, she always kept a bit of her unique self
-The banter! There were so many times I was full on laughing out loud
-The added element of forced proximity and only one bed! It made all the angst and tension shine
-The entire cast of side characters. While some were extremely unlikable others added a great amount of warmth to the story (Reagan!)
-How it all played out in the end. Not gonna lie I was a bit nervous!
