Kiss and Tell, Leal makes her print publishing debut. Catalina Diaz Solis, nearing the end of her internship at an engineering company, is doing everything she can to impress the company executives and secure an open full-time position right after she graduates from the University of Central Florida. Gabriel Cabrera, her rival and the handsome big man on campus, is a thorn in her side who always seems to get everything he wants so easily, making her loathe him. Catalina needs the job to extend her visa to stay in the country. She cannot bear to go back to the turmoil in Venezuela after her brother was killed in a political protest. She’s stunned when Gabe, after discovering the high stakes for her, makes a proposal. Gabe needs a convincing girlfriend for all the upcoming nuptial activities in his family, and in exchange, he will step out of the running for the engineering job. Who could turn down this offer?
VERDICT Leal, who is Venezuelan, adds depth to the fake-relationship trope with the backstory about the ongoing crisis in Venezuela and an unexpected twist, making this read stand out.
