From Lukov with Love Paperback – 1 February 2018

⛸️ Slow-burn, witty banter, and Ivan Lukov being the smartass is the perfect combination.🐶 Jasmine Santos has dedicated her life to figure skating. Never been placed in the first position in any major championships, she thinks of herself to be a disappointment. When Ivan Lukov her childhood enemy ( and her best friend's older brother) asks her to partner with him for pairs, she contemplates but finally agrees.⛸️ First and foremost the banter between them was amazing. Jas & Ivan are each other's copies, both are stubborn and relentless to pursue what they want. I still don't like Jasmin's dad, except for him all the members of her family were so cute and funny.🐶 I wanted to see them more in love than being just friends like 95% of the book. The development of friendship was done well but I didn't feel the love. The ending was fast, it would have been nicer to show them being in love.⛸️ MZ is the queen of slow burns, she writes simple day-to-day things but they are enjoyable. The figure skating description was done nicely so people could understand it ( I also enjoy watching figure skating on youtube so I loved the descriptions )🐶 I also realized I don't actually like reading slow burns. I like them after the 80% marks but the constant description of the same thing irritates me.⛸️ I will probably remember Ivan's eyes and hair color + the shape of jasmine's body till the moment I die. It was described like 100 times 😭

Jasmine and Lukov's banter is super super awesome! There's very mild steam in the book right at the end but seriously these two are super adorable. Though one thing I really wondered about is how Jasmine was always getting into trouble or had some issue or the other and Ivan kept saving/ supporting her always. Would have loved some support or saving from Jasmine for Ivan too sometime. Can't say she was the most likable FL 😌 but Ivan, just a full on sweatheart ❤️❤️

Well written. I don't have any complains since I am not a figure skating nerd so I didn't really miss not having technical details about the sport in there but I think I'd have appreciated it more if there was more. I loved the characters. They were both endearing. The love story was warm like a blanket on a winter night and that's probably why it worked for me. It wasn't all passion and it worked for the two characters.

I blinked every time there was a blink written in this book. Good eye excercise 😂😂It was a very nice novel. good feel novel

Perf

This book is love at first read and then like true love between Ivan and Jasmine it became my love. Can't tell you how many times I've read this book and still can't get enough of it!!! There are very few books i enjoy reading again and again. This is definitely one of those books. Mariana Zapata never fails to make me fall in love with her writing and books.

The book is not printed properly. This is my 2nd exchange of the book this is supposed to be a gift to a close frnd of mine the quality is not good for the price we are paying. I didn't expect this from Amazon.I didn't report a problem as I have to gift early. Never buying again. Pages are printed up n down I hope they didn't skip few lines🤡

With a lot of skimming through stuff which is not important, it's a nice book. I mean I skipped so much nonsense she would be thinking WHILE having a convo, that I'd be bored outta my mind but once you get used to it, the story is good.
