This was a sweet story about two people who just want to be loved. There is something so special and magical, about slow burn, and Mariana does it SO WELL. I will never ever get over Aurora and Rhodes because as they’re a part of me now!!

All Rhodes Lead Here was a sweet and slow-burn romance from Mariana Zapata. I loved Aurora and Rhodes and Amos, and all the wonderful supporting characters and the sweet epilogue.

I did feel that the slow burn was a bit too slow, and that "Buddy" should never be used as a term of endearment between two adults, but that's just me.

Wow! This was my first ever book by Mariana Zapata and, let me tell you, it was pure perfection!!! I found so much of myself in the female main character and felt something in me healing along with her as she grew to love herself more and become a stronger person. The love interest in this book also had me swooning at every page! I’m so in love with them, their story, and this beautiful small town. My one bummer is that this was a long slow burn, but it’s fine. I still had a great time! If any of this sounds interesting to you, do yourself a favor and pick up this book.

I am a huge Mariana Zapata fan, but this book took me a while to read. I had read reviews that it was an age gap story which is not a trope I enjoy at all. I finally asked about it, and the "gap" is the same as my husband and I which isn't that much. When you think of age gap tropes they are normally almost 20+ yrs or more of late. I just wanted to get that out of the way.

I am so upset it took me so long to read this one. I loved it so much, I have it in all three forms, it's on my yearly re read list. The banter and slow burn between Aurora and Rhodes is so well written, it just sucks you in. Aurora is a full rounded character that has a great back story and pulls you in. Rhodes is, well, Rhodes he really reminds me of my husband in so many ways. Go in knowing this is a slow burn, but the story just draws you in and it's a wonderful ride.
