Reviews with content warning for Racism - D'Vaughn and Kris Plan a Wedding

a very cute and sweet short book of romance and laughs. really good palate cleanser. all banter and fluff without angst. epitome of a beach read. gets the job done but not much depth. although, i do appreciate the coming-out story arc.

Ok in general the reality show premise is NOT for me but I really enjoyed this book! I felt like it really excellently and sensitively handled the core conflict of this book, which actually comes up quite early

(D'Vaugn coming out to her quite religious mother/family and the rockiness surrounding that).

After that point, things are largely lighthearted and entertaining, and the side characters are fully fleshed out, despite the book being fairly tight in terms of length. I actually think the editing of this book was very well done and the structure serves the narrative beautifully.

If you're a reality TV girlie you will probably LOVE this, and if you're not it's still great!

“D’Vaughn and Kris have six weeks to plan their dream wedding. Their whole relationship is fake.”

This was a fun romance read with the main focus on a supportive, growing relationship and lovable side characters!

Kris and D’vaughn had so much chemistry. Their relationship was really sweet. They really showed up to support each other and work out any misunderstandings.

I loved the families and their different dynamics.

There was a little bit of homophobia and racism, but overall it was a fun and lighthearted read.

Good for fans of Insta-love and reality TV.

I wished that we got to see them hang out more outside of the context of the show. They do mention hanging out, but the reader does not get to see that.
