It’s a novella, so there’s not as much character development. I’m okay with it. For a more extended version see “Twice Shy by Sarah Hoggle”

A quick and nice read. I love me some good forced-proximity trope and their banter at the start was wonderful. Ali Hazelwood really has me on a chokehold

Another fun one from Ali Hazlewood! I prefer the amount of character development that happens in her full-length novels, but I won't turn down the opportunity to read these too. I am listening to these on audio, which is a newer experience for me, and seems to make the classic romance novel misunderstandings a bit annoying for me.

I can't wait until the ebook is out so I decided to listen to the audiobook z and since it's my first time, ai have to replay a few times to remember the scene. Nevertheless, I'm not surprised to find out HOW GOOD this book is. Enemies to lovers in one roof? The heat? THE SPICE? 10/10. Will I still read the ebook once it's out? Absolutely.

Weirdly enough the other romance novel I'm currently reading ("Romancing the Duke") is also involves forced proximity between enemy roommates to lovers because someone gave the heroine a home in their will that the hero is currently living in and refuses to move out of while she is determined to move in. Not mad about it.
I feel like they moved from enemies to flirty friends to lovers a bit quickly, but it's a novella, so that's expected. I liked how we get snippets over time showing their growth and that it touches on wider issues like sexism in STEM workplaces and climate change. However the family dynamic didn't seem fleshed out enough (again, that's probably due to the shortness of the form, I get it). Overall, a lovely read-in-one-sitting rom-com with a dash of spice.
