The American Roommate Experiment

From the bestselling author of The Spanish Love Deception

De: Elena Armas

Narrado por: Jennifer Jill Araya, Noah B. Perez

From the author of the Goodreads Choice Award winner The Spanish Love Deception, the eagerly anticipated follow-up featuring Rosie Graham and Lucas Martín, who are forced to share a New York apartment.

Rosie Graham has a problem. A few, actually. She just quit her well paid job to focus on her secret career as a romance writer. She hasn’t told her family and now has terrible writer’s block. Then, the ceiling of her New York apartment literally crumbles on her. Luckily she has her best friend Lina’s spare key while she’s out of town. But Rosie doesn’t know that Lina has already lent her apartment to her cousin Lucas, who Rosie has been stalking—for lack of a better word—on Instagram for the last few months. Lucas seems intent on coming to her rescue like a Spanish knight in shining armour. Only this one strolls around the place in a towel, has a distracting grin, and an irresistible accent. Oh, and he cooks.

Lucas offers to let Rosie stay with him, at least until she can find some affordable temporary housing. And then he proposes an outrageous experiment to bring back her literary muse and meet her deadline: He’ll take her on a series of experimental dates meant to jump-start her romantic inspiration. Rosie has nothing to lose. Her silly, online crush is totally under control—but Lucas’s time in New York has an expiration date, and six weeks may not be enough, for either her or her deadline.

I loved the plot

This was the second by Elena Armas that I read. The first was the love deception. These two books are written in the same universe. I think I had a hard time, liking this book, due to the male narrators betrayal of the character. He kept on reminding me of one of those telenovelas instead of a modern romance. I did like the way the book was seen from Rosies and Lucas is prospective, but I can’t help thinking it maybe would’ve been better just from one or the other. I guess now the only person in this universe who still needs a love match, is Charo the other cousin.
