Roommates: A totally uplifting, dramatic and emotional women's fiction novel by Ola TundunMy rating: 3 of 5 stars
Warning - CLIFFHANGER.
One day, without warning Ariella Mason comes home from work packs her belongings and moves out of the gorgeous flat she shares with her fiancé Jasper and moves into Caleb Black's spare room. Caleb and Ariella both work for the same events company where Ariella is seen as aloof and Caleb .... well lets just say he knows most of the women there intimately.
Caleb was really looking for a male lodger to help pay his mortgage, but when Ariella offered 20% above his asking price (which was already higher than he expected to get), he can't say no, especially when it means she cooks him Michelin-quality dinners every night.
Gradually Caleb discovers why Ariella left Jasper and the two of them just might be falling for each other, but everything seems to conspire to keep them apart.
I was enjoying this at first but it seemed to go into a holding pattern just after halfway through, Caleb and Ariella kiss then retreat. They kiss, then either Ariella meets up with Jasper or Caleb meets up with one of his legion of women. There are misunderstandings. They kiss and then retreat. Over and over.
Then ... it just ends with a promise that the story is continued in the next book. Not cool.
I received an ARC from the publisher Storm via NetGalley in return for an honest review.
