Pero el destino tiene otros planes, y Minerva y Cal inician una relación casi involuntaria en la que median un ex novio celoso, unos padres impresentables, un gato demasiado inteligente y muchos donuts, y que concluye con la mayor de las apuestas: el amor verdadero.
Es un libro divertido, ingenioso, estructurado en escenas breves que provocan una lectura ágil, unos protagonistas con mucho carácter y personalidad, unos personajes secundarios con mucho protagonismo y unos diálogos chispeantes llenos de ironía y humor.
Una historia de amor con el mensaje de “te quiero tal y como eres”. ( )
