Descripción editorial
NOW A NETFLIX ORIGINAL FILM! When a soldier with a troubled past and a struggling songwriter agree to get married for the military benefits, neither expects much after saying “I do.” What happens when a marriage of convenience is anything but?
Cassie Salazar and Luke Morrow couldn’t be more different. Sharp-witted Cassie works nights at a bar in Austin to make ends meet while pursuing her dream of becoming a singer/songwriter. Luke is an Army trainee, about to ship out for duty, who finds comfort in the unswerving discipline of service. But a chance encounter at Cassie’s bar changes the course of both their lives, and within forty-eight hours this unlikely pair finds themselves husband and wife.
How did that happen?
Cassie is drowning in medical bills after being diagnosed with diabetes. When she runs into her old friend Frankie, now enlisted in the Army, she proposes a deal: she’ll marry him in exchange for better medical insurance and they can split the increased paycheck that comes with having a “family.” When Frankie declines, his attractive but frustratingly intense friend Luke volunteers to marry Cassie instead. What she doesn’t know is that he has desperate reasons of his own to get married. In this unforgettable love story, Cassie and Luke must set aside their differences to make it look like a real marriage...unless, somewhere along the way, it becomes one...

Beautiful but not great
*SPOILERS*
It was a beautiful story and I really loved Luke, sometimes Cassie was a little bit annoying but what I really hated about this novel was the inconclusive romance we had at the end 🥲 This is one of those unique cases in which you think “the movie was better than the book”
Here I had so many questions all the time and the movie was simple, straight to the point and really beautiful even though they deleted characters like Toby which was an important character in the book since was Cassie’s love interest the majority of the story, and they changed names like Frankie’s last names or Luke’s dog. Also in the movie we don’t see any kind of conflict between Jake and Luke whatsoever and everything was a “dad” situation.
But the end was perfect and I was worried about that when I was watching the movie, so thank you Netflix for literally saving this story!!!
