4 stars

this whole book is ridiculously hilarious, and it did have its cringe moments like Book 1, but it's way better! I think I expected A LOT from Zach because he was badly outshined by Farrow.

❝I like your sense of humor. If I ever develop one, it would look something like yours.❞ — before starting, literally this is the best thing someone could say to you, in my opinion! 😭💗

⋆·˚ ༘ * Farrow Ballantine — she is literally the coolest girl I've read. She's so freaking relatable and the way she handled everything and didn't even give a fuck if anyone is confessing something 😂 The whole book, she called Zach and literally HIS MOTHER out on their bullshit because she's that feisty! When he confessed how he wanted her, she cringed and laughed! 🤦🏻‍♀️ I just know she's a badass, and her comebacks are damn good. Her character is really strong, and she actually had a personality that Dallas never had. Aaagghh I love her!!! I love her! 🥺

⋆·˚ ༘ * Zachary Sun — I seriously love your 'I-hate-everyone-but-Farrow' attitude, but ngl you were outshined 😭 AHHH I loved how attentive he was and how HORNY he became for Farrow. I already suspected this in Book 1, but AHHH HE WAS A VIRGIN!!!! certainly didn't move like one but he still was. He was pussy-whipped, and I seriously like his grumpy attitude and how he literally roasted each and everyone but didn't have the balls to say anything to Farrow! 🥺

– This whole book is pretty long, which it shouldn't be, and I was seriously at the point where I needed it to end. The story could've been finished in fewer pages, but it had a lot of extra scenes (which were funny tho). The smut is not great though 😭 I actually laughed a lot because this book is hilarious, and I enjoyed reading it.

Zach's whole trauma of NOT touching anyone because of his accident is seriously so cruel for him. I felt extremely sad for him while reading that scene. Ngl, the whole scene was cliche when he realized he can touch Farrow because MIRACLE 🤨 duh. They constantly went back and forth from enemies to lovers to enemies, and their banter is top-tier. It's funny TRUST ME 😭

❝I’m positive my mind did not conjure a con woman who knows how to play Go and walks around in see-through lingerie.❞

❝You missed a spot.❞
❝Sorry, Boss, but you’re a permanent feature.❞

Farrow is seriously so nonchalant, didn't give a fuck about her dressing style and all. Also she's his maid, and it made the whole 'YOU'RE NOT THE BOSS OF ME – I LITERALLY AM' scenes really funny! 🤦🏻‍♀️😂 This whole Cinderella retelling is actually one I enjoyed because her sisters were so dumb, and Zach roasted them well!! 😭

❝Remember when you told me about the Lobster Telephone? You were right. Everyone has a favorite work of art. You’re mine.❞

Aside from the whole wedding dramas, Zach is literally obsessed with her, and I was dancing while reading each scene! His friends were so real for saying 'who's gonna tell him'.

🤺 He literally ran out in the rain for her even though he hadn't been out in the rain in 21 years because of the accident! 🥺
🤺 Went on a normal car with Farrow even though he uses military vehicles for safety.
🤺 Gifted her 23 pairs of shoes on her birthday for each of her birthday!
🤺 Realized he kinda ruined her birthday so he arranged a dinner with candles and her favorite dishes.
🤺 Watched romance movies just to get ideas to please her 😭
🤺 Followed her around the whole house just to make her have lunch with him.
🤺 Told her his embarrassing moments just to hear her laugh.
🤺 Traveled in an economy class 😂 because his mom took his PRIVATE JET, and he had to cancel his engagement just to be with Farrow!!!

❝You can pretend to enjoy another man’s company, but we both know that no one will ever come close to me.❞

And yes, the jealousy and possessiveness 🧎‍♀️

Now, lastly Oliver is left, and he's definitely with Frankie, but seriously he's wayyyyy too gross! A good friend but gross! I'm scared for his book 😭
