Leonor Soliz does it again! She writes these book boyfriends that are soooo swoon-worthy - and usually for totally opposite reasons. I was so excited to get my hands on an ARC of this. I stopped another read midway through, while on vacation, to start this one! 

Jake Stewart is the plus-size red haired MMC with such a tender heart. Vi (pronounced vee) Sotomayor is the curvy Latina MMC who has been pining for her brother’s best friend since high school. We find out right away that they are into each other and the plot of the book revolves around Jake managing his own responses to past trauma to allow them to move forward. 

One of the things I like about Soliz’ writing is that she writes low-angst stories that still have emotional complexity. And her billionaire characters are so relatable. Yours, Finally is no different. Jake’s behaviors and coping mechanisms are so familiar and heartbreaking. 💔 The way he listens to Vi and his therapist are amazing. And Vi is a bad*ss. In addition to being a high-powered VP, who knows how to handle skeevy ex-boyfriends, she is an avid romance reader (and audiobook listener), which feels like a love letter to Soliz’ readers. There is an amazing audiobook scene that will have readers commiserating. 😅

they kiss in chapter one

I thought the author was moving away from her typical slow burn. But I was wrong.  As with her other books, there are moments of *delicious* tension. 👩🏻‍🍳💋 And when the spice hits, it is quite schmexy. 🌶️🌶️🌶️

A central component of the diverse representation in this book comes from the spicy scenes. The plus sized bodies are not just tolerated but celebrated. I want to cuddle with Jake! 😍 Vi and her parents and the entire billionaire friend group are Latine. I thought in the last novel that one of the characters was a trans woman but in this one there were no indicators of that, so I think I was wrong previously. 

Overall, this was a cute and schmexy read with relatable characters
