Priya Gupta had to fight fiercely for all she got. Her father runs the family business, an NYC auction house. It was always her twin who was considered the next heir. Only he has more interest in painting. Her father gives her a little piece of the business and she makes it successful, but getting her father's approval is still far off.
And then there is Gavin. Her childhood rival and heir to heir auction-house completion. They are always in completion, and not above playing dirty. It would be easier for her if she wasn't extremely attracted to him. :)
The latest client, they both really want, invited them for a week at this estate, to convince him to pick each one of them. Being in such close proximity, with sizzling chemistry and undeniable attraction, makes them cross the line. :)
It's the most romantic enemies to loves book ever. The banter, the dialogs, are THE best. :) I was giggling all through the book... :) It's very romantic and very, very steamy. :)

I received an eARC from the publisher via NetGalley. All thoughts and opinions are my own.
Priya Gupta has dreamed of running the family company, Loot, for as long as she can remember. The only problem? Her father seems to prefer her twin brother Ajay (who would rather become a painter).
Gavin Carlyle is the heir at a competing auction-house of Loot’s and Priya has grown up thinking of him as an annoyance.
Gavin is charming and constantly competing with Priya for clients looking to sell art.
When opportunity strikes for her to land a major collection that would expand Loot’s business from just Indian art, Priya will do whatever it takes. Even if that means spending a week at a lavish country home competing against Gavin for the collection. As the week goes on, Priya starts to see Gavin in a whole new light. Can they ever be more than just rivals?
This was absolutely adorable and I found myself so excited to figure out what would happen next. I relate to Priya a lot— so focused on work and success that you put off relationships. Her and Gavin’s relationship was so swoon worthy and I love how the story ended.
I would recommend if you like:
•rivals to lovers
•competitive banter
•teasing
•irresistible blonde men
•a girl boss women lead

This book was cute and it had parts of it that I liked but overall it was just very meh to me. I feel as though the actual relationship could have been developed a bit more in the first half of the book. Priya talked so much about how she hated him but was attracted to him that it got a bit annoying. Overall I did enjoy the book and I liked the cute little epilouge.
