The Wall of Winnipeg and Me

Product Information

I feel like I've fallen in love. For real. I'm not just using this phrase. I really feel like I'm in love. With no one in particular. I just feel it.

The Wall of Winnipeg and Me – HarperCollins

I don’t want to say a word on the plot. Mainly because the “twist” in here drives the plot and I loved where it took the story and was glad I didn’t know beforehand. I will miss it more than you'll ever know and I will never forget Aiden & Van and their amazing and beautiful love story for aslong as life.The big guy hummed into the shell of my ear, his breath warm and way too comforting. “You want to tell me what that was about?” he asked in a whisper. Yeah, my mouth dropped open. “How do you know when I do that?” My tone was just as astonished as it should be. It was not easy to be assistant/housekeeper/fairy godmother/ mother/ vegan cook/errandgirl/ photographer/social media keeper to the top defensive end in the National Football Organization.

This is a slow burn romance. Thus, don’t expect much admission of feelings and acting on them by the main characters until the very end. Because that was the way surprises worked—they didn’t tend to pencil themselves in to your schedule and let you know they were visiting ahead of time.” to explain my rating, i did enjoy the book.. but will i remember it in a couple of months? probably not. BUT the writing is really good and, again, i don't know how mz did it, but it never felt boring to read aiden's and vanessa's story He stared at me, unblinking, unflinching. And then: “I’ll cut the power at the house when you’re in the shower,” he said so evenly, so crisply, it took me a second to realize he was threatening me…This time around, Aiden wants to up the ante. He faces deportation if he doesn't renew his contract soon, something that he doesn't plan to let happen. All he needs to secure his citizenship is a wife -- and we all know who he has in mind. It’s an offer Vanessa knows she can’t reject. Her student loans are putting so much weight on her shoulders, and paying them off by being in fake marriage with one of the current best football stars wouldn’t be that bad, would it? As a heroine, Vanessa was also very personable. She was easy to relate to and I connected with her right away. She was a strong heroine, while not coming across as aggressive or heartless. Her character was perfectly balanced and really rounded out Aiden's personality.

You’ve been with me for two years, but I figure I’m barely beginning to understand,” the big guy claimed, his expression solemn. i liked how their relationship evolved, it was the slowest slowburn but i didn’t really mind it to be honest. i don’t know how mariana zapata did it, but i knew exactly what aiden thought the entire time without needing his pov. he was supportive and so protective oh my god i need aiden graves in my life 😮‍💨😮‍💨😮‍💨Instalove: No, but the h had feelings (a self-admitted crush) for the H at the beginning of the story. Possible Triggers: Yes other reader informed me that there was emotional and physical abuse by her family (it’s been ~5 years since I read so I don’t remember) I was in Aiden’s lap. He was cross-legged on either side of me, each of his muscular thighs cocooning my hips, his chin just behind my ear. I shivered.

I know, Van.” His thumb massaged me again for all of about three seconds. “You know more about me than anyone else does.” of 5 stars 2 of 5 stars 3 of 5 stars 4 of 5 stars 5 of 5 stars The Wall of Winnipeg and Me by Mariana Zapata You know what was super terrible? Vanessa kept thanking him for doing this, doing that (things which were literally the bare minimum), and in reality, any person would think about their behavior patterns and realize that they're ACTUALLY getting thanked for doing the bare minimum, which would make them feel terrible about themselves! Vanessa didn't mean harm or anything, but he kept telling her to shut up every instance because it would make him feel terrible about himself! HE KNOWS HE IS SELFISH AND SELF-CENTERED, BUT AS LONG AS HE'S MINDING HIS OWN BUSINESS, why do others care so much His parents left him alone, and then his grandparents died, and he retreated into himself even more! He stopped interacting might've convinced himself that what's the point of even trying to put effort into something when everything's going to end? His character is not emotionally explored in this book at all! THESE WERE SUPER CUTE! This book had cute scenes, and I liked them, but to be honest, all of them kinda fell flat for me because Vanessa would just say THANKS x1000, which would ruin all the vibes for me! Aiden hated that too! She's appreciating him, that's fine, BUT FOR THE BARE MINIMUM?I know some of you may be making faces and be wondering what the hell is wrong with this girl? But hear me out: I enjoyed the book. I laughed, I cried, I get mad and I've come to love Vanessa as well as Aiden. Scratch four, this deserve five stars. Third reading and nothing has changed. Magic is intact and if possible I am in love with this story more than ever. i deducted one star off just bc of the repetitive writing style. the fmc’s endless inner monologue got so repetitive and annoying, i felt like i was reading the same thing every chapter. she also repeatedly kept describing how big he is—like okay girl we got it the first 5 times you said it. This is a really funny romantic story. Mostly in the story Vanni talks too much and thinks too hard and Aiden growls. When he will lose Vanni, he will start talking. But he will still be the silent guy with only a few friends. The guy who is absolutely focused to his football games and nothing more.
