Marrying a sexy, outrageous billionaire in Vegas was a wager on my future. His arrival in my small town two weeks later? Not in the prenup.

My deal with Maximiliano Errázuriz is nothing more than a bold business move. He needs a wife to overcome his father’s schemes, and the money he offers will fix all my problems.

To trick his father, we’re living together and pretending we’re in love.

But we’re too different. He’s brazen; full of cheeky smiles and wicked teasing. I’m practical and private. His bespoke suits and exuberant personality clash with the simplicity of my hometown. I hate city living. He thrives in the bright lights.

That is until he shows genuine care for my town, and his eyes turn fiery at the sight of my curves. When he reveals his bruised heart, I melt even more. Soon I can’t resist him at all.

Max is my eccentric souvenir, but forever wasn’t in our vows. People have left me behind before and he will, too. I need to let him go, before I start to believe we belong together and I end up with nothing but a shattered heart.

***

YOURS, FOREVER is a slow burn, low conflict, dual POV romance, with a small town gal and a billionaire, big city guy. This Marriage of Convenience, Opposites Attract novel includes plus size and Latine characters, and open door spice.

5⭐️What an amazing way to start 2025! If I loved Eva and Max the first time around rereading their love story through the audiobook has made me fall in love with them even more. Everything I felt the first time was amplified and I can for sure say these two are my favorites. ❤️

First Time Reading: Thank you to the author for the eARC. All thoughts shared are my own.

Leonor Soliz is the queen of cozy romances. She writes books that have wonderful Latine representation and it heals my soul to see our community thrive and shine through her stories.

Yours, Forever is marriage of convenience and grumpy sunshine so the perfect combination. 😉 we follow Eva and Max who meet after a drunken night in Vegas. They go their separate ways only to learn a couple weeks later that they are married so… “What stays in Vegas” doesn’t really stay in Vegas. Max makes his way to Laguna Island in search of “his wife” his words not mine and explains their situation to Eva. This marriage will benefit them both in different ways and the only caveat is they cannot get a divorce in the next couple of years. They agree to continue with the marriage and we watch them grow to learn/love one another. Their banter is amazing and the nicknames 😆 gave me life. The amount of times this man says “my wife” had me going. Max and Evan are opposites she loves her quaint small town and Max has grown up in the city. He is rich (billionaire rich) and Eva is not. Can a relationship between the two work? Can it last?

I loved this book. Granted these two main tropes are my absolute favorites but if your looking for a cozy low stakes romance that is sweet and swoon worthy look no further than to Leonor Soliz. ❤️

I actually think this book is 3.5 stars. The beginning and the end were really good but the middle dragged. This is a slow burn romance but it got so pedantic in the middle. I don’t usually mind a slow burn when the story is interesting and moving along.

So Max and Eva get married in Vegas. It’s a marriage of convenience for both. Max needs a wife for 18 months for business reasons. Eva married Max for money for her business and for her town. The book is about their journey to love and their HEA.

This is my second Leonor Soliz book but I wasn’t as charmed by this one as the last one. Read this from Kindle Unlimited.

I am so fortunate to receive an e-ARC from Leonor! thank you so much 🫶🏼

Yours, Forever – Leonor Soliz

I absolutely adore this book! 🤗🤗
I love it so much I ordered a physical copy and look at how beautiful this cover is.
Max and Eva are everything 🥰 marriage of convenience has become one of my favorite tropes! this a slow burn but babyyyy, the wait was worth it!!🔥🥵

Leonor knows how to write her characters and develops depth to them. I loved the Chile representation! 🇨🇱 I enjoyed reading about Max and Eva discussing “Cueca” and it is the national dance of Chile. Max and Eva discuss how the whole dance is about flirting and the slow burn between two people who want to be together!!! 🤭

Latinx Romance Slow burn Perfection
Oh my goodness this was fantastic! When I think about modern day marriage of convenience Yours, Forever is exactly how I like the story conveyed!

These two wake up in Vegas in the same bed, Eva rushes out of the room not letting Max hardly speak. She thinks she’s done with that doozy but naw, Max is in her small town with a truth bomb. THEY’RE LEGALLY MARRIED!

After a close and intimate discussion, we know they make a lot of sense to stay married. There are a lot of great perks for Eva and Max alike. Very pragmatic and logical reasons….

What Eva in particular isn’t ready for is how cozy she feels with Max. He’s such a golden retriever to her black cat energy. From day one, even in his drunken mindset he KNEW and felt that he could easily fall for her. Which I noticed is his drive to continue to make it work, even when Eva tries to push back. I LOVE a sturdy love interest like Max. He’s the cutest thing y’all. I fell hard for him.

This is very much a slooooooow burn. But if you let the story unfold before you, you know it feels right. Their pace felt comfortable, especially since Eva had such strong internal battles. I would hate for her to feel rushed.
I also love Eva very much 🥰 She cares about her community and its sustainability.

Once we do get to the steam, we are as ready and eager as Eva gets to be. With all these little nuggets in between of her melting into Max, their intimacy is sooooo EARNED and BEAUTIFUL, and yummy 😈

Anyways I highly highly recommend Yours, Forever by Leonor Soliz. She makes these stories that feel so intimate to me as a reader. Like a long and close up look at characters that remind me of me. 🥰

I was given an ARC for exchange of a review, these views are my own.

The way I fell in love with Max & Eva 💋😍😍😍🔥🔥🔥

"It had been a few days since our chance encounter in the kitchen, and I still had to make up my mind about whether I liked Max better in his suit or out of it."

VEGAS WEDDING
MARRIAGE OF CONVENIENCE
TWO BUSINESS OWNERS COMING TOGETHER
WITTY BANTER
FALLING IN LOVE JOURNEY

There aren't enough words to describe how much I loved this story. Max was so committed to his wife and ADORED her every step of the way ..... I felt like I knew these characters and felt apart of their group of friends in small town life. Their support system of people around them grounded both of them while navigating this unexpected union. gonna be thinking about these characters for quite some time.

Thank you, Leonor, for an eARC copy of the book. I started purchasing the books when Leonor releases the paperback, she puts them up the same day as her ARCs go out and I run and buy it to go with my ritual post completion of the book. I always hug it to my chest, take a deep breath in pure joy and happiness.

Max and Eva are in Vegas and run into one another and they make an agreement to get married. Both wake up not remembering what had happened and go their separate ways, until Max realizes they are married and shows up in Laguna Beach for his wife. Laguna Beach is a small town that was a community primarily for the Latine community, but it needs to be revitalized. Max comes from a billionaire family, and he wants to take the company in a different direction that does not exploit people, but his father is not on board with that. Eva needs the money from the agreed marriage to help with the investment of the town and bring in stability to her café business.

Leonor has this way of making me fall for a new couple so much that they become my new favorite couple. Max is this flirty, cheeky, charmer of a man who loves his suits and likes to keep this persona up a bit for his protection. He is Chilean and has a close group of friends that make you just want to be part of the crew. Eva, has the town, her parents immediately left when she was 18 and they didn’t raise her to be connected to her Latine culture. She has found family within the town and that is why it is so important to her. She is more reserved, cautious and careful with her heart. Eva is fat and it is body positive, fat neutral.

I LOVED their friendship as they got accustomed to their marriage. This is a SLOW BURN and (cue fans) that pays off when it heats up!

I also cried seeing the thank you note Leonor wrote and having my name in it. I adore her with all my heart, and I am so happy to see more and more people pick up her cozy romances that center Latine characters that are fat. They mean the world to me.

✨ Yours, Forever by Leonor Soliz ✨

💜 Marriage of Convenience
✨ Cultural moments and bonding
💜 Family isn’t always bound in blood
✨ Revenge is best done doing good for others
💜 Thirty-year old reps!!

As someone who reads a book a day, I’m used to reading books fast. However, I read this entire book in one sitting tonight. I intended to start it last night, but fell asleep. Also, I’ve finished two other books today. SO THAT’S SAYING SOMETHING about this book. It was compelling. It was sweet. It was the bestest slow burn, like ever.

Eva and Max have such a cute storyline. I love where we start in Chapter 1 — there is no subtlety to the situation and storyline, however. I love that Eva is strong and independent, but slowly learning to trust others again. I love that Max is both cocky and kind, but also, hurting. There is so much richness in a story where characters have facades because people put them on every day, and learning to see past them, to truly see one another, is beautiful.

Ale is a fabulous best friend, co-worker, and support system. I love when romances have great best friend storylines too. And with all of Leonor’s writing of FMCs who are strong and curvy, the attention to Eva’s beauty and body are never done in an othering or self conscious way — we see Eva for Eva, as does Max, and I love it.

Spice: 🌶️.5
Recommend: YES!
Audience: Anyone who loves a good romance storyline. Anyone who loves billionaires doing good for the world. Anyone who thinks small towns are just the greatest. 💕

💕 Special thank you to Leonor for including me on her ARC team for this read! It was a pleasure and an honor!! ✨

3.8 🌟


Hmmm the feelings are plentiful with this story. First I wanna say that I really do love the marriage of convenience trope. The insistence of not catching feelings while simultaneously catching said feelings always gets me.

I don’t really remember the first book in the series because since then I have gone on a book bender if you will. I will say it’s been a hot minute since I read the billionaire trope and it’s weirdly entertaining because it’s just so ridiculously outlandish. I obviously know there are billionaires in the world but something about a group of hot best friend billionaires just cracks me up for some reason.

Now, I liked Max and Eva enough. The beginning of their story was a little dry for me though. Eva’s stubbornness was a tad annoying but eventually once she started liking Max’s quirkiness I liked them together. The romance was cute and the spice was spicy. Now was it a slow burn? Idk because I think my definition of slow burn is particular ( like Mariana Zapata level particular - I.e no touchy touchy until the final stages of the book). But emotionally? Definitely a good slow burn.

Overall, a pleasant read but (without wanting to sound mean -I’m sorry!) nothing really spectacular? It’s still sweet and little bit silly. I am very intrigued by Vi and Jake though…

I received this as an ARC and let me tell yall. I absolutely adore Maximiliano! I have not read the first book in this series so this is my first billionaire romance and I am head over heels! As a latina myself all the latin references are gifts for my soul. I love the representation of our Latin roots as well as the body positive rep. Imperfect bodies can also feel and love and be sexy!
The reason for the .75 deduction was because it was a very slow burn. I did not like how Eva was so pessimistic the whole time when Max just kept showing up time after time. Like just kiss the guy already!!! I was also not a fan of FF. The way he said it made it feel degrading in a way...idk. Its not my cup of tea.
I adored their banter and found myself laughing at their jokes. Mi peor es nada 🤌🏼 and the Kitty limerick 🤣 so fun! Go read it! You'll have a good time but also make you shed a tear or two from happiness!

This was the first book of the author's that I've read, but it definitely will not be the last. If you are looking for a romance book that is ROMANCE but with a sprinkle of spice - this book is for you! The burn was slow, the tension was high, and the story was so good. This is exactly what I think of when I hear the phrase "cozy romance"

Oh but don't get me wrong -there are some moments when my jaw hit the floor. MAX and his thoughts about his belt 😲😲😲 - I was not prepared. Loved it!

Also - you had me at "There you are, I've been looking for you"

Thank you to the author for gifting me an advance copy for a honest review! I'm excited to read more of your work.

I really fell in love with Max and Eva from the get go. The story picks up in such an intriguing way that makes you want to keep reading. I really loved all of the representation in this book. All of the characters were very likeable and warm.

I was pleasantly surprised with the spice here! The slow burn was done really well, the chemistry between Max and Eva was so intense! I think the conflict was what had me lower my initial rating, but overall I really enjoyed reading this book!

Opposites attract / marriage of convenience / small town romance meets bigger than life Latine billionaire / slow burn 🔥

Cozy, sweet, and an easy read! Love Soliz’s work and how her book always makes include a wide array of Latine representation.

Didn’t care much for the third act conflict and pacing was a bit uneven for me but I always recommend Soliz’s cozy romance books with a lil bit of spice at the end!

This story is such a perfect marriage of convenience story. The characters are both so great and I love seeing them both open up throughout the story. Also the slow burn is done so well in this! The audio narration was so perfect for how I thought these two would sound and that added to the story for me.

NO THIRD ACT BREAKUP! If that doesn’t sell you we aren’t the same so shoo. Seriously though, this was Romance, the falling in love with love kind. Max is really the star of this story but how can he not be when he’s rich, a little broken, and falls first. Soliz basically crafted the perfect romance cocktail with this sweet and swoonie marriage of convenience. Eva is just as lovable but for me it was the way she was determined to protect Max that really does it for me, we Stan a down azz chick! I cracked this sweet baby open and didn’t put it down until my eyes and cheeks started to hurt from fatigue. Now I know slow burn isn’t everyone’s jam but I adored the pace but it was almost 70% before we got the highly anticipated kiss and smex. But the way we went from G rated to X during that first scene almost ruined my knickers. Like I said the perfect romance cocktail! Sweet, delicious, light, and packing a punch you never see coming!

Every time I pick up a book by this author I fall in love with the characters and the setting! 😍 Somehow Yours, Forever is my new favorite and Max and Eva’s marriage of convenience turned friendship to lovers is some of the sweetest slow burn I’ve read in awhile with *fantastic* pay off. 🔥❤️

The banter and silliness between the characters is one of the best parts and every time Max calls Eva his wife you will swoon. There’s no alternative. 🤣

I can’t wait to read more from this world!!

4.5 stars rounded up!

If you are not following Leonor Soliz on Instagram, RUN! She is easily one of my top five favorite authors on bookstagram. The bonus content she posts compliments her books so perfectly. The way she weaves Latine culture into her books and content so effortlessly is perfection. I have learned so much. I always look forward to her posts. It doesn’t take long to notice that she’s not only an incredible writer but also an incredible human being.

Yours, Forever is the first book I’ve read thats written by Soliz and I was thoroughly impressed. Her books were introduced to me by a friend and I was immediately drawn in by the a plus size FMC because body positivity is so important to me. Let me tell you, Soliz did not disappoint! You can tell right away by looking at the cover, Eva is gorgeous. Once you dive into the book, you realize she’s the whole package. She’s confident, gorgeous, intelligent, funny, an entrepreneur, and generally tackles life like a boss. The MMC, Max, is the billionaire cinnamon roll book boyfriend none of us knew we needed. I don’t want to give away too much but the way he respects Eva and values all those around him had me falling in love with him as a character. I loved the depth to each of her characters as well as the character growth we got to experience. The way Soliz represents healthy relationships, mental health struggles, and consent hit all the right notes for me.

This is an open door, spicy book, but if you’re not into spice and would prefer a fade to black, it’s something I think you could read around and still very much enjoy this book.

Yours, Forever is easily one of my favorite romance reads of the year. I look forward to reading many more of Soliz’s books in the future. I’m a fan for life. Thank you so much for the chance to be one of your eARC readers. I truly appreciate it the opportunity.

Thank you Leonor Soliz for the eARC.

AHHH, Leonor has done it again! I loved this book. You could read the writing growth Leonor has gone through.

Two weeks after getting married in Vegas, Max surprises Eva by coming to Laguna Island and calling her his wife. Both agree to a marriage of convenience to help Max obtain his inheritance. Max and Eva try to balance their fake marriage while also trying to identify their true feelings toward one another.

Getting to read Max and Eva's story was so fun. I loved both characters so much. Their dynamic and growth was everything. The slow burn was so worth it AND THE SPICE!! SO FREAKIN GOOD! I think this might be my favorite Leonor book so far.

3.75 rounded up!

Super thankful to get to read the eARC for this sweet story. I enjoyed the book the whole way through. The spice was spicy and also had a bit of dom/sub action which I didn’t expect but enjoyed reading.

I Iiked seeing the different Latine cultures Soliz chose to represent in the book and not only having characters from different countries with different practices and celebrations but also have one character be disconnected from her Latine identity, which often happens and was so nice to see reflected here.

Soliz writes the fat body wonderfully… I loved every mention of softness and fullness 🩷

I love a romance with a plus-size heroine and Latine representation!

After getting drunk married in Vegas, Max and Eva decide to remain married to their mutual benefit. Maximiliano was the ultimate golden retriever to Eva's black cat. This was a very slow burn. The spice level is low, but Max was just GONE for Eva.

An excellent cozy romance!

I thought I loved Gabe but somehow Max outshined him. Max was like let me make lemonade out of these lemons (aka the stipulations of his inheritance) and while I'm at it let's make sure everyone is taken care of. Now, this is the type of billionaire I can get behind. He understands money can be leveraged to support people/communities without preying on them. I mean he still wants to be rich but you get what I'm saying. So yeah get married to a half-shaved head baddie and move to a small town to make your shotgun marriage work.

I think what I loved about this framing of Laguana Island was the sense of community. Yes, Laguana Island needed a little bit of tender love and care, but it was held together by people who saw its charm. Dare I say that the realization that Max felt more at home in this small town than in his NYC condo flipped the usual trope of get me out of here OR I'm coming back to start over. Again, I'm locked in. I also appreciated that they both communicated let's not make the relationship complicated. We are going to be married for 18 months and here are the things that will make it complicated, but once things started to feel like a possibility they renegotiated- 18 months turned into 2 years then an undetermined amount of time.

Listen, Chapter 27 all bets were off, and from there on it was smooth sailing because they made the adjustment to combine their lives. When Max said, "Stay married to me...give us time to fall in love. Fall in love with me, Eva, We don't need any other finish line". I literally said Eva gave that man what he wants NOW. The resolution with Carlos felt easy but at that point, I could care less because I just wanted Eva and Max to be together. So even though my star rating is really 4.5 I feel comfortable rounding up.

Thank you to Leonor Soliz for sending me an e-ARC

I've you've read Leonor before, you know she writes cozy romances with little or any drama and latine representation.

In this book we can find side characters that we've met in other books like Alejandra & Daniel (Under the meh-stletoe) or Lina & Gave (Yours, for now) and we get to see Max, the billionaire in the lovely small town of Laguna Island.

Max and Eva meet in Vegas and, thanks to a lot of alcohol, they forget they got married. It's a marriage of convenience. Max need to be married more than a year to get full control of his company (something his father doesn't think is possible), and Eva needs money to keep her cafe open, so Max offers a lot of money to Eva and to help her town to grow financially if she marry him and keep married at least 18 months.

Some days after the trip, Max discovers their marriage so he has to find her and convince her not to divorce him and to let him live with her to try to sell the idea of them in love.

I loved how both of them keep trying to think they aren't falling in love as they get to know each other. You'll think that Max with all his money and his expensive suits wouldn't be a good match with Eva but they make each other better. And the spice... I need a Max in my life! It's a slow burn romance so don't expect to see them to have sex in the first chapters.

I'll keep reading more books of Leonor because her cozy romances really make me feel good and happy.

First off let me start by saying thank you to the author for the opportunity to read this as an eARC for an honest review.

Wow! Yours, Forever by Leonor Solis was such a heartwarming read. Ever since I read the first book in the Cozy Latine Billionaire series “Yours, For Now” I knew this series would be a hit for me. If you like the following than its a must read:

- Latine Representation ☑️☑️
- Small town ☑️
- Slow Burn ☑️
- Billionaire ☑️
- Marriage of convenience ☑️
- Badass FMC ☑️☑️

Yours, Forever starts off in Vegas and ends in the beautiful small town of Laguna Island where most of the story takes place. I generally enjoy small town romances but this novel made me want to live there. I so badly wanted to be a part of the Laguna Island Community, lol. Moving on…

I have to say, I thought Gabe was my favorite but Max takes the lead, hands down. His cheekiness just puts a smile on my face. He’s:
- the Sunshine to Ava’s grumpy
- A Billionaire & he’s humble 🍰
- Well dressed - men in suits 🫠
He is the cinnamon in your cinnamon roll. I fell in love with him along side Ava. It was inevitable. Ava is just a badass who knows the meaning of loyalty and while I appreciate a strong Latine FMC I think the all star here was Max.

This novel is a slow burn, he falls first, with a touch of spice. It’s not a lot but when it gets spicy - gets heated. Go add to your TBR or Read Now!

Review: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Spicy: 🌶🌶
Language: English

I have received a chance to read “Yours, forever" ARC from @leonor.soliz and I am so in love with this book.

We have Max and Eva’s romance. He is a billionaire city boy with a capullo as a father and she is a small town self made woman with lots of dreams for her town. They meet by accident in Vegas where something they both can’t remember and they ended up married. But this marriage has benefits for both parts, so we have a marriage for convenience.

Like most (or maybe all) of leonor’s books our protagonists are latine and I specifically loved how we had different backgrounds for both of them showing our diversity. This book was so addictive, I fell in love with Max and freaked out so much about a napkin of all things. I read almost the whole book with a smile on my face (except when I was furious with Max’s dad) I already loved Laguna Island because of Daniel and Ale from Under the Meh-stletoe (they appear in a few chapters in this book 💖), but after having Eva showing Max around and getting to know more about its history made me love it even more for how cozy it is.

I fell like Leonor’s writing just gets better and better, if you like slow burn romance books with latine and plus size rep you have to read this book and all other books she writes. Now I feel the need to read Yours, for now to get to know more about Lina and Gabe 💛

I loved this book. I don’t really know where else to start other than that. This is my second book by Soliz—I read the first book in this series: Yours, For Now; and because I really enjoyed it, i wanted to continue the series. I love Soliz’s writing, and I really enjoy how she sets characters and plots up. In this one, we are introduced to Eva, who is a coffee shop owner in a small town and after a drunken night in Vegas ends up married to Max, a billionaire who needs to remain married for about a year to secure his position as CEO of his father’s conglomerate. Eva is practical, hard working, and a strong advocate for her small town while Max is charming, funny, and a smart businessman. Both characters are kind, and perhaps that’s what made me love them so much together. Max falls hard and fast for Eva, but he respects her boundaries throughout the story, and Eva is hesitant to fall because of her own familial trauma. They each grow individually and together throughout the story, and I really enjoyed that about Soliz’s writing.

The supporting characters in the small town are also a delightful read, and Max’s friends, some from book 1, also make appearances. Overall this is a lovely series, and I cannot recommend Soliz enough. I already picked up book 3, and I will be reading it soon!

This small town, marriage of convenience, billionaire romance was so sweet from the very beginning. I loved how all in Max was and how determined he was to show Eva how well they could work together. The whole “he falls first” trope is a fave because it’s so rare to see.

I loved that Max was constantly spoiling Eva and making her feel precious because that’s something she clearly needed in her life. In turn, Eva gave Max the town and community and sense of camaraderie that was missing in his billionaire world view.

The community was absolutely darling! It had that small town nosy neighbours vibes but in the best way. The town of Laguna Bay had each other’s backs.

I appreciated that there was no third act breakup in this story. I was expecting one and was relieved to find out it wasn’t happening. There was some third party conflict but thankfully it was wrapped up nice and quickly and in a very satisfying way.

Overall this was a very sweet, low spice fast burn with plenty of teasing banter and a dollop of found family. I thoroughly enjoyed it and can’t wait to see what’s next!
