Marriage of Unconvenience by Chelsea M. Cameron
3.0
My first read for Smutathon round 3.
Rating: 3,5 stars
Representation: lesbian and queer main characters and a trans side character.
Point of View (POV): single female pov
Relationship:female/female
Tropes:friends to lovers, fake marriage
Romance:this book has so many sweet moments including a wedding dress shopping scene that warmed my heart, these two women love each other so much and it’s easy to tell throughout the book.
Stema Level: low, it’s more cute than steamy. But there are explicit sex scenes.
Angst Level: low, there aren’t any huge obstacles or any dramatic moments.
Comments: The writing isn’t the best, but the real problem is the editing. There are inconsistencies that go from the protagonists having different middle names throughout the book to one character being described as the best secret keeper and a few pages later as not being the best at keeping secrets.

I really liked this book, it's fun and entertaining and it has great characters. It was written by a latinx author, it has latinx characters and it's based on Mayan mythology, which is amazing. I just had issues with the amount of internalized ableism.
