Book Review: No Love Allowed by Kate Evangelista

No Love Allowed has such an entertaining concept! In this book, a rich boy meets a girl who doesn’t have nearly as much money as he does and recruits her as his fake girlfriend. I love these fake girlfriend books because it is always so interesting wondering if anyone is going to find out. This book had me laughing, especially when a jealous ex got involved, and it is such a quick read. I was able to read it in one day.

❀ A nice Balance of Fluff and Serious

I really enjoyed the mental health awareness in No Love Allowed. The main character has a mental illness, something I haven’t read in a while. What I liked about the way this book incorporated it was how it wasn’t actually the main focus of the story. Yes, there are some serious moments, but most of the book was about the fake relationship. I appreciated this because in the summer, I don’t like to read books that deal with heavier topics. This is a nice book to read if you like a balance between fluff and seriousness.

❀ Hilarious Main Character

Diana is such a good character for No Love Allowed. She is hilarious and not afraid to tell people what she wants. She paints as well, another trait that I admire since I have no artistic skill. Diana is so determined to help her mom out and earn money for medical bills, which I thought was so sweet of her. Her life is pretty difficult, yet she still remains so positive.

❀ Perfect Spring Read

No Love Allowed by Kate Evangelista features a fake relationship and a character with a mental illness. The main character is very likeable and full of joy, which made me like the book so much more. This is a perfect read for the spring!
