REVIEW ➞ The Upside of Down by Nicole Rodrigues

BLURB ➞

Sorayah Wilson

When my ex waltzes back into my life, claiming he wants to be a father to my son after eight years of silence, I’m more than a little wary. I refuse to let him come into my son’s life and turn it upside down. But after making a scene at my office, my business partner and best friend, Cristiano Mendes, approaches me with a proposal. A terrible one, considering I’ve crushed on him from the time I turned thirteen, and the fact that he’s never shown any interest in me.

Marriage might be the solution to one of my problems, but being married to Cristiano has its own set of repercussions.

Cristiano Mendes

Sorayah Wilson stopped my heart the second I laid eyes on her when we were just kids. Since then, I’ve done everything I can to protect her.
Marrying her is easy, because she’s my best friend. I’ve always been able to keep myself in check but being around her and her son Matteo every day, makes me long for this thing between us to be real.

Only Sorayah doesn’t know that I’m keeping a secret, one she might never forgive me for. 


Alcohol, dancing, and Cristiano makes for one dangerous combination.


ARC REVIEW ➞

Sorayah is a single mom, she is hard working and will do anything for her son. She owns a business with her best friend and the best male role model in her son’s life, Cristiano.

I loved the friendship between Sorayah and Cristiano. They have known each since they were 13 and instantly formed a friendship that has only grown stronger over the years. They have a ton of chemistry between them, but neither of them really acted upon taking their friendship to something more.

Seeing Sorayah and Cristiano finally and slowly taking their friendship to the next level was great. There were some hurdles that they had to overcome but truly given everything they are better together on handling whatever life throws at them as a couple.

I loved Sorayah and Cristiano’s two friends and I really hope that there is more in store for this group!
