⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
LOVED this slow burn romance – one of the best!
Mariana Zapata is unequivocally the queen of the slow burn romance. Hands down, there is just no comparison. The Wall of Winnipeg and Me was one of the first books I had ever read of hers, when it was first released, and I’ve not done a reread since. It’s a difficult choice to decide which of hers I love the most – and a few I’ve definitely reread, but never this one. However, The Wall of Winnipeg and Me is just an all around amazing romance and I’m not sure how I forgot that. Everything about it just works for me and a lot of what it involves shows up in various facebook reader groups in rec requests. Big, silent and stoic hero? Yes. Heroine overhears Hero talking bad about her or not speaking up when others do? Yes. Unrequited love? Yes.
Aiden is a football star and Vanessa his assistant. She has been working for him for two years, building up her savings so that she can quit working for him and start working for herself as a graphic designer. Finally she gets the nerve to do this and this is when the story really gets started. The Wall of Winnipeg and Me just sort of sucks you right in from the beginning. These characters jump off the page as you live with them over the course of the story. It’s single POV, and I love how much character depth you get in this book. It’s a romance, but an absolute slow burn. You definitely get the connection that is building between them and as a reader you can read between the lines much quicker than Vanessa can. I loved everything about this story and will definitely be doing a reread a lot sooner than seven years. If you haven’t read it, I would definitely jump right in and even you have, jump back in!

Mariana Zapata began writing love stories soon after she learned how to spell. She probably shouldn’t admit that she started sneaking romance novels from her aunt’s bookshelves way before she was old enough to even understand what it meant when a man flipped up a woman’s skirt. (Don’t tell her mom.)
