DID NOT FINISH

I don't usually go for this genre, but I don't know I decided to give it a try through this book, it was such a drag, I honestly couldn't get past 150 pages.
I tried to stick out through the book, but I just can't, I couldn't.
I had to admit the start of the book was good and it had a KDrama factor which made me keep going,
and the Joshua character building and development was good and I loved it but I didnt feel the same way about Lucy, as I turned pages, it got so I don't know the work to describe it, I was afraid that if I complete the book, I wouldn't be able to continue reading for atleast a month, so I gave up quickly.
Summary: I wouldn't recommend this book!.

4.5/5

AAAAAAAAAAAA
funny fast-paced

I loved it! I predicted the plot twists but they were so fun to read!

Lucy's so oblivious and dramatic it's hilarious while Joshua's there, brooding and waiting for her to catch up. Loved it!

To be honest I disliked the main character for most of the book because I really liked Josh. The story was predictable at times, but I ended up really enjoying it!

New favorite romance alert! I was obsessed with this! The rivals to lovers was great, there was so much tension 😂 The office was like they either absolutely despise each other or are secretly doing it.

So Lucy and Josh are actually both assistants to the CEO’s of their publishing company that came together in a merger. Since the day they met this rivalry has been on. All Lucy wanted was to be friends but Josh brushed her off the moment they met. They thrive on making little barbs at each other throughout the day. And now they’re competing for a new position. The tension brews between them though and they end up kissing which makes Lucy spiral. Josh was actually really sweet though. At one point she got sick and he stayed the night with her taking care of her and she goes with him to his brothers wedding.

They were just so cute and I loved them and I already miss them so much.

Books take me forever to read now that I have a job :( I loved this book! If you haven't read it you best do so!!
