Contractually Yours: An Arranged Marriage Romance (The Lasker Brothers)

Product Information

This book started off typically in the sense of the mcs needing an arranged marriage for "reasons" . In this case it was the h who needed the marriage and because of a couple of chance encounters over the years she wanted the H. Due to some miscommunication she ended up engaged to his brother but he cheated and the H was basically forced by his family to step in. Living together the two eventually fall in love. Enjoyable MOC story where for a change the heroine wants the MOC so she can meet the ridiculously antiquated terms of her grandfather's will that will allow her to be CEO of the business. She strong arms the H into the marriage (even though she sweetened the deal with a business to toss him) and he holds a grudge but falls for her. The heroine isn't a little wimpy type and stays pretty stoic until the bitter end and it gets too much for her. I’m lost for words that was the most attractive thing a man could like what. The fact that he did it without hesitation for her has my heart.

I try not to snort. He doesn’t watch the news—thinks it’s boring—and his family apparently hasn’t updated him about my new status. Maybe they disowned him. Wouldn’t that be great? I started this for the grovel and it wasn’t long grovelling which was disappointing but it was an entertaining read. I couldn’t stop once I started, but this book wasn’t amazing imho, at points things were a lil overexaggerated and dramatic. I really liked Luce, I felt bad for her since she dealt with so much shit, she’s a misunderstood ice queen. Sebastian was immature and stupid but he was sweet, he wasn’t your typical cold CEO. I found that both Sebastian and Luce's POVs sounded exactly the same which I hated. I did find it weird that they met when she was 14 and he was 23, it was one brief interaction. They meet again 11 years later after that one interaction and he doesn’t remember her but it’s still weird sorry. From the moment they met each other in Paris, I felt as if they were meant to complete each other. To be the other half the other desperately needed. The advice and care he gave her that one night helped Luce face her family with courage. And her life was never the same. I expected to be bored, marriage of convenience usually only works for me in mafia books but oh the feels in this one❤ got me straight in the heart and made me just want to smother the h in love. She truly had some shitty people in her life and I'm glad the H made them pay You.” Sebastian lets the laugh out. “You’re third-rate comedy, but at least you’re entertaining.” He wipes tears from his eyes.trusting a booktok rec in 2023? that's on me. I'll take the L for this one. This had so much potential; age gap romance, rival companies, arranged marriage... but it down spiraled. The execution was poor af. Contractually Yours” is a romance novel written by Nadia Lee. While I don’t have access to the specific details of this book, I can provide a general summary of what a romance novel with that title might encompass. The third act! LOL I really don't understand authors using this so much but honestly you could see this breakup happening from the very beginning of the story and there were some plot holes that happen throughout this one here. I was so saddened by it if I am being honest because there were just some answers I wanted our characters to get that they didn't receive. And I felt like the heroine should have forgiven the hero earlier than she did. She dragged it out way too much. The hero does bad sure, but he makes an effort to real show his love for her.

Don’t hold your breath.” He’s dumber than I thought, bringing up the engagement when I still can’t find enough mind bleach to erase seeing him with Vonnie. You are worth it, Lucienne Peery. You are the prize. I can do this over and over again until you believe that” 😭😮‍💨If somebody told me sebastian was a teenager, I'd completely believe them. For a 34 y/o man, I have never met a more whiny little kid. The way he speaks?? soso childish. When they broke up, he got a tattoo saying, "Exclusive propery of (mc) trespassers will be removed with extreme prejudice." SIR, YOU ARE 34 YEARS OLD ACT LIKE IT!!!!
