This had all the right ingredients to make a gripping and swoon-worthy romance novel.
Kiara and Carlos start out not being all too fond of each other, but eventually go from this good-natured banter to a slow-burn romance. Carlos is a bad boy, who grows to have a soft spot for this one girl. Who doesn't love that?
Unfortunately, there was never really a moment where they truly seemed to connect. I guess, at some point, they sort of just decided that they were perfect together, but it's never really shown as to how, when and why they got to that conclusion. This kind of threw me off, and I found it difficult to take their feelings all that seriously. If we had just gotten those moments in which their compatibility shines, then I would have felt very differently about their love. Maybe I would have even swooned. I think there would have been a high possibility of that, actually. 
Regardless, this was a fun and cute novel, and it was thoroughly enjoyable. If I could have just maybe felt a bit more emotionally involved, it could have been really great instead of just fun.
