Sunny Shelly’s Review: 5 Stars
Counted was a heartwarming and gutwrenching romance about a marriage of convenience that turns into so much more.
Eve and Jude have known each other for most of their lives as their fathers are business associates, but he’s a few years older and they never had much in common. While they aren’t strangers, they aren’t close friends, either. But when Jude discovers he only has three months to live because of a brain tumor, he propositions Eve with a marriage proposal so he can live out the few items he has on his bucket list.
And so begins this marriage of convenience romance where Eve and Jude (not surprisingly) fall in love for real. While the clock ticks down on Jude’s terminal illness.
Parts of this book were hard to read because of how much Jude is suffering because of his constant headaches and how that affects Eve. But it is heartwarming and sweet, and there’s such a deep bond that grows between these two characters. I loved the progression of their friendship and ultimate romance.
I went into this book that it would have a HEA, but I had no idea how that was going to happen. The twist explains it all, and opens the door for these two lovely characters to really experience all that life has to offer them!
I received an advanced copy and voluntarily left a review.
