This book was an absolute delight of a retelling that was very well adapted. Colin being the green card guy was perfect!
Loved how the author used the poster having the First Latina Princess as an issue for our Lizzie, it's always an issue isn't it? First you are the x (woman, latina, black, brown, etc), then the accomplishment. Instead of just our Princess. But I loved how Gabriela used Lizzie's mentor to bring her back to reality and the scene with the little kids that saw themselves in her was super sweet.
I'm a sucker for romances that have a slamming against the door and keep your hands up kinda bossiness.
My favorite quote: “I don’t trust myself around you, and I have to hold back because I don’t know if I’ll be able to control my feelings once I give in.” --Melted.
Looking forward to another book by this author.
