What a delightful ice queen/enemies-to-lovers romance. I will definitely be reading more from Ms. Sommers. This is my first exposure to her work.

This was fine, I had no real significant issues with it but I also just wasn't attached to our main couple. Ironically I do think they lacked some chemistry and then when the romance finally started it was a little rushed. I do enjoy the enemies who fall in love online not knowing each other's true identities but it felt a little flat here. I far preferred Love Next Door by Sommers which I felt hit a bit harder.

I’m realizing that I’ve never read a queer romance about two teachers before, and I’m SO happy that this book rectified this for me! This was such a fun story, and a perfect read for anyone who grew up wondering which teachers were dating who, and what their teachers’ backstories were.
The romance was a great slow-burn coworker enemies-to-lovers, with a few moderately spicy scenes. It played out in a way that felt natural and fairly realistic. Despite an opposites attract theme, the pair was able to get together without either character’s personality being compromised, and both stayed true to themselves. The main characters and supporting cast were dynamic and engaging and the plot was fun to see play out.
I also really appreciated the Happy-For-Now ending, and thought it fit the book perfectly!
I was provided a complimentary ARC from NetGalley in exchange for my honest review.
