The Wall of Winnipeg and Me

The Wall of Winnipeg and Me by Mariana Zapata is a gripping, slow-burn romance that will captivate your heart and mind. Vanessa Mazur knows she's making the right choice when she quits her job as an assistant, housekeeper, and fairy godmother to one of the top defensive ends in the National Football Organization. Working for the stoic and aloof Aiden Graves was always supposed to be temporary. Vanessa has dreams and ambitions that extend beyond washing extra-large underwear and managing Aiden's life.

But everything changes when Aiden, also known as The Wall of Winnipeg, shows up at her doorstep with an unexpected request. For two years, this imposing man barely acknowledged her existence, never even extending a simple good morning or a birthday wish. Now, he's asking for the unthinkable. Vanessa finds herself grappling with a decision that could alter the course of her life. What do you say to a man who is used to getting everything he wants?

Zapata's trademark slow-burn writing style shines in this engaging tale, where character development and the gradual build-up of relationships take centre stage. Readers are drawn into a beautifully crafted world where the nuanced dynamics between Vanessa and Aiden are explored with depth and sensitivity.
