Gillian's Reviews > Unfortunately Yours

“You’re the most important person in my life, Natalie. You always will be.”

This book was so good! This was a fun and heartwarming romantic comedy about love, finding your purpose, and family. Unfortunately Yours follows Natalie who was recently fired from her job and needs money from her trust fund for her next business opportunity. But Natalie realizes that she must get married before the trust fund is released. Natalie decides to make a deal with August, he will marry her, but only if he is given a bank loan for his vineyard. Will Natalie and August develop feelings for each other or will they leave?

I was engaged in this romance book from the first page. The pacing was great and the plot was interesting. I really liked the writing style it was witty and easy to follow. The characters are complex and relatable. I love Natalie, she is hardworking, strong, determined, brave, smart and caring. Natalie's character development was excellent, I'm glad that she discovered her purpose and realized that her family does care for her. I'm in love with August, he is funny, charming, loving, loyal, protective, sweet and will do anything for Natalie. August is also relatable, he made mistakes, but he made sure to fix the mistakes right away and apologize. There were a few scenes where I didn't agree with the decision August made at first, but i'm glad he made up for it. I loved that August is stern and has walls up, but once you get to know him, he's such a teddy bear for Natalie. The chemistry and tension between Natalie and August was amazing! The spice was so hot! The banter between August and Natalie was great, it made me laugh so much. I was swooning and blushing at several steamy scenes. I appreciated how the author discussed grief and anxiety, she showed that it's a long and challenging process. The ending was so good, I'm so happy that the ending was happy.

I recommend this book to anyone who loves romantic comedies, marriage of convenience, great chemistry and great characters.
