Fun premise and audiobook listen - especially loved how the mistrust between both characters was written in an entirely believable way - they have to actively take steps to listen better to one another which I don't often see in romance. I wished it could have been *slightly* spicier a little earlier on, but still really solid!

The book wasn’t bad. It just felt mediocre, the storyline of two people who seem to dislike each other but actually don’t do because all of that just resulted because of a series of miscommunication is so overdone. I mean it still could have been good. But nothing new was done, of course construction is something you don’t usually see. I did not understand one word that was written about construction but it was fine. Meanwhile, the characters seemed kind of flat, I saw the effort of making their life and personalities deep but it just didn’t work for me.
