Elliot is the CEO of the London office of his family’s company. He is grumpy and protects his privacy at all costs. He never has a girlfriend and the press has nicknamed him Casanova because he has never been seen with the same woman twice on his arm.
Kate is the head of the IT department of Elliot’s company. From the very first day that she was hired, she has butted heads with Elliot, and neither of them got along with each other.
Kate’s friends urged her to create an online dating profile. She started emailing Edgar. He is not her type and he does not live locally, but they start revealing the most intimate things to each other.
Kate thinks Elliot is been acting weird, and he is more attentive to her. She doesn’t understand why, and he confided in her that he finds her vulnerability attractive.
Elliot noticed Kate in her netball uniform on the security cameras dancing in the copy room. At first he didn’t realize who it was but once he did he tried talking to her but she does the best job at pissing him off. One night he while waiting for her to show up in her uniform he found her passed out on her office floor from some pain medication she took for endometriosis. After he realize that she was OK he took her home and he stayed with her until her roommates came home. From that point on, he could not get her out of his head.
I have really enjoyed the Miles high club series. Each brother has their own insecurities that they have to overcome, and I cannot wait to read the last book. There has been a couple scenes in every book that I laugh out as it is the most hilarious thing ever happened to these multibillionaires.

“In the darkness, in her arms, I listen to her heartbeat. And I lose sight of mine”

Dang y’all, I really went into this already hating the H because well I already knew he would do something stupid.. but the fact that I finished and wanna read it again even if he pissed me off a good few times…

Cała fabuła tak super się zaczęła, główna bohaterka miała charakter i cięty język. Potem trochę jakby straciła kręgosłup, ulegała facetowi, ale czyż nie takie są zakochane kobiety? Najbardziej denerwował mnie ten wątek przyjaciela, który został nie potrzebnie skomplikowany. Dość przyjemne do czytania. 2.5

T.L. Swan is a recent discovery for me- I’ve loved her super steamy, somewhat angsty, often humorous romances that seem to have such a particular flair. Highly consumable- and highly entertaining. But, unfortunately, this one was a bit of a miss for me.

It started out incredibly promising - I was hooked immediately by the entertaining dynamic between IT team member Kate and her sexy boss, CEO of the London Miles Group. Firey chemistry, flirty and heated banter, tension galore- all the things I love about a enemies to lovers story. Eliiot is initially a pompous, frustrating alpha boss and Kate is sassy and clever- and a really delicious chemistry is brewing between them, particularly as Kate starts flirty with what might be Elliots sweeter and charming swoony-worthy online alter ego on a dating site.

Giddily, I couldn’t stop turning the pages, and while I still flew through this story, I found parts of it disappointing to me personally. Overall, it just felt too long and the drama dragged out in places, and while I found the characters captivating early on, the more their story unfolded, the more I found that I was frustrated with them- almost like they regressed into themselves instead of growing as characters. Kate who started as such a compelling and strong heroine loses a lot of her spark- walked on by her despicable sister and ultimately by Elliot. And Elliot, oh Elliot. I have a hard time still seeing him as a true casanova for Kate after some really frustrating decisions. The end of the book hit you with a lot of drama and some twists that while Kate may have forgiven, I’m not sure I would. But alas, this is not my love story, it’s theirs- I’m glad they had their HEA and their journey was an interesting one, just not my favorite from TL Swan. But the steam level is HIGH and super yummy.

I’ve loved this series- and even if this third book is my least favorite of the three, TL’s writing continues to compel me to come back for more!

This one really tugs at the heart but it was such an enchanting modern day fairy tale.

Definitely the best in the series so far, but I like my books like an emotional roller coaster ride so this book was made for me haha.

There was one too many “fate” coincidences for me personally, but I liked this book a lot. It has hints of You’ve Got Mail and I ate it up!

The stop over good, the takeover better, this… not at the same level. The big mean CEO and the sarcastic sexy IT gal are at each others throats for years until one night she’s working late in you tight, red netball uniform. Will he change gears to peruse her? The models at the ball? Or the mystery artist he’s been after?

Overall rating: 2.5 out of 5
Would i read this again? No
Would i read more from TL Swan? Yes but with cation
Would i recommend this to a friend? More than likely not
Could i put it down? No because i just wanted to be done with it. The storyline was just cliché, predictable, laughable
Do i regret reading this? No

These Mile’s brothers are just smoking off the page. What an amazing end to a great love story. To have “fate” intervene in such a different way. I listened to this book on audible and the narrators were great. I love the dual point of view and hearing part of the story from him. Spicy for sure, and well worth the read. Can’t wait to hear what kind of shenanigans brother #4 gets into.

The epilogue- hilarious.

It was cuter than book 2 but much more heart wrenching. I didn’t think much of Ell from the previous books, but I’ve got a soft spot for him now.

Spice: 5/5 although still a little vanilla. Still waiting for butt stuff in these novels.
