Roomies

 Fiction by Christina Lauren


I don't usually enjoy straight romances (novels in which the romance is the only plot element), but there are a few authors who can do this genre well, and Christina Lauren is one of them. (Incidentally this author is actually two people named Christina and Lauren, which is also fun.)

This book was a classic straight romance, involving an attractive couple thrown together (by pretending to be married in this case), SEVERAL misunderstandings (does he really love her or is it pretend?), and a next-to-last chapter breakup (she decides he really was pretending). 

DESPITE the formulaic nature I have just outlined, the characters in this book were good enough to keep me reading.

Result: This was a light and enjoyable romance story.

I also read recently by this author: In a Holidaze
