NOW A NETFLIX ORIGINAL FILM!

When a soldier with a troubled past and a struggling songwriter agree to a marriage of convenience for the military benefits, neither expects much after saying “I do.” Then tragedy strikes, and the line between what’s real and what’s pretend begins to blur in this smart and surprising romance perfect for fans of Nicholas Sparks and Jojo Moyes.

Cassie Salazar and Luke Morrow couldn’t be more different. Sharp-witted Cassie works nights at a bar in Austin, Texas to make ends meet while pursuing her dream of becoming a singer/songwriter. Luke is an Army trainee, about to ship out for duty, who finds comfort in the unswerving discipline of service. But a chance encounter at Cassie’s bar changes the course of both their lives.

Cassie is drowning in medical bills after being diagnosed with diabetes. When she runs into her old friend Frankie, now enlisted in the Army, she proposes a deal: she’ll marry him in exchange for better medical insurance and they can split the increased paycheck that comes with having a “family.” When Frankie declines, his attractive but frustratingly intense friend Luke volunteers to marry Cassie instead. What she doesn’t know is that he has desperate reasons of his own to get married. In this unforgettable love story, Cassie and Luke must set aside their differences to make it look like a real marriage...unless, somewhere along the way, it becomes one...

Like many others, I came to find the book after first seeing and loving the movie. But unlike (what seems to be) most others I didn't find the book disappointing at all! I actually really enjoyed it. Compared to the movie, the book doesn't have as many "cutsey" scenes with the MCs together and it is very slow-burned. But that's also what I really liked about the book! It delves deeper into the troubles these characters have and their character development and also puts a focus on the fact that they were not meant to fall in love in the first place. All this makes the ending mean more to me!

RĂ„kade se filmen först vilket förstörde lite
 tror den hade varit bĂ€ttre om man inte hade vetat vad som skulle hĂ€nda. Annars bra bok men gillar nog filmen mer (:
