From Lukov with Love

Product Information

From Lukov with Love also followed this pattern very closely. And for the first time, I felt like that bothered me a bit. With all her other books I read, I would just think – well, here’s Mariana Zapata I know and love. And now, for the first time, I was like – yeah, OK, but I’ve heard this story 5 or 6 times before. i think the characters blinked so much they just couldn't open their eyes to what was right in front of them Oh, yes, I’ve had traumatizing skates. Haven’t we all? I’d fall on my very first double-salchow, and it would all be over. Every skater knows that stomach-dropping feeling as vividly as anything. I found the book From Lukov with Love to be a captivating and emotionally rich read. The slow-burn romance between Jasmine and Ivan kept me engaged, and their journey of personal growth and overcoming fear was inspiring. The power of love portrayed in the story resonated deeply with me, highlighting the importance of vulnerability and communication. The book’s emphasis on pursuing passions and embracing second chances served as a reminder to never give up on dreams. Overall, From Lukov with Love left a lasting impact on me, with its well-written narrative and memorable characters. Who Would Enjoy this Book?

Prepare yourselves to fall even harder for Jasmine Santos. To any fellow figure skaters out there, Jasmine is for you. To overachievers, to those who seek validation, to those who have struggled with body image issues and performance insecurities, to those who have grown up not feeling sympathy for themselves, Jasmine is for you. For reference: Normally, I don’t fall for contemporary romance characters (I’m more of a sci-fi/fantasy whore anyway), but there was something about Vanya Lukov. I simply fell in love with him. Me and Jasmine, both of us. LMAOOOOOOOOOOOOOO – this turned into a Favourite Ivan Moments list. Okay, I swear I love Jasmine too. She’s one of my favourite heroines, everything she says and does is iconic. I always value a good character development, and Jasmine's was 50/50, only if her inner long—ass monologue wouldn't have been tiring and repetitive. I understood part of her struggles, but like a 10% of it. And that's it. The rest it's just her being a whiny bitch. I wish she wasn't the most annoying bitch ever. Whatever happens, he mouthed to me. But then his lips kept forming words. Three words exactly. I love you.”I’m okay with you having ten other people be your favorite. But you’re always going to be my favorite person,” he finished. “Always. No matter what.” i have seen nothing but good things about mariana zapata, so i was really excited to finally read one of her books. and knowing that this was a goodreads finalist in the romance category only got me even more hyped. so maybe my expectations were a little too high because ughhh! this was a massive let down. A thought came into my head and made my stomach churn. “Why? Are you planning on having kids any time soon?”

The author mentions the problems of using "but" as the connector while complimenting a person in this book.From Lukov with Love is a kind of sort of hate-to-friends-to-lovers slow burn contemporary romance. It follows two talented figure skaters, Jasmine Santos and Ivan Lukov, who, after years of bantering finally decide to join forces and become partners in pair skating. In my opinion, physical books, e-books and audiobooks are all crucial in the reading process of an individual. Each one has its own pros and cons. I think it is absurd to compare them. Your story was wonderful. Unique. Messy but beautiful. I loved you as enemies. I loved you as friends. I loved you as bestfriends. I loved you as figure skaters. I loved you as a couple. And I really loved you as husband and wife. I also loved the fact that in this book, the main issue discussed has been about bullying and harassment – the type that starts online and ends up going on in real-life too. I mean disgusting pervs and stalkers. And sadly, this hap I would definitely not lie if I told you that I have heard about this book multiple times a couple of years ago when everyone around me was reading it and I was just sitting there with my Crime and Punishment copy, rolling my eyes.

From Lukov with Love” is a standalone novel that showcases Mariana Zapata’s talent for crafting compelling and heartwarming romances. It is a story of growth, love, and following one’s dreams, making it a must-read for fans of contemporary romance and sports-themed novels. Detail About From Lukov with Love Well, Mariana Zapata’s novel From Lukov with Love has a little more introspection, a stronger relationship to reality, and healthier (learned) coping mechanisms, but the concept is the same. Enemies-to-friends-to-lovers. Slow burn. Patience and understanding. Attitude and perfectionism. Tension (lots of tension) thawing into romance. Because I knew what that felt like. And I’d already screwed up enough with making grown adults I loved think they weren’t important. If I was going to do something, I wanted to do my best and give it everything. Just one month ago he had asked me if I was ever going to go through puberty. And in reply I had told him I’d go through it when his balls decided to drop"But it was when you started taking the most basic things for granted that life decided to teach you that you're an ungrateful idiot." Also, a lot of people complain because Zapata doesn’t include much of the sport in her sport romances. Which is something I more feel I should mention than it actually bothered me. And these books seem to lose none of their magic on rereads. In fact, several of her books, and The Wall of Winnipeg and Me especially, are amongst the books I reread most often. And I often end up liking her books even more the second or third time around and I almost always increase my rating. In the end, Jazmine and Ivan’s hard work and dedication pay off. They find success in their skating careers and manage to qualify for the Olympics. Along the way, they have also fallen deeply in love and finally confess their feelings for each other. Their relationship adds an extra layer of joy and fulfillment to their achievements.
