love her writing. appreciate the growth of both characters, from being petty/self-destructive to going to therapy together, growing up, and understanding each other more. the chemistry was believable. liked the banter. relationship was a little toxic (esp in the beginning) but that makes sense since they were young and famous and relatively unadjusted. 

Cute lil enemies to lovers rom-com!

4.0

I really enjoyed this one and feel like it is probably one of my favorite/best of hollywood co-stars second chance romance style stories. I thought the characters had a lot of chemistry and that their banter was really funny. 3rd person dual POV isn't my favorite writing style, but I felt like a good idea of each characters mindset was established and liked them both individually.

I do wish we got to see more of Lilah and Shane once they get back together. I didn't have a problem with the pacing prior to their reunion, but there's only about 60 pages from the time they get back together and the end of the book. So because of that the ending seems a little rush. There's a conflict comes up and then is resolved off page and it feels sorta abrupt. But I guess with a title name of Will They or Won't They, the journey to that point is the story not what happens after they decide.

changing back to 3 stars because it wasn’t bad i was just in a hating mood

This book has some of my favorite tropes (second chance, enemies to lovers, forced proximity), but at first I was unsure I that was going to be able to connect with the characters OR even root for them to find their HEA. This changed throughout the story, and I am glad that their development as individuals was not rushed.

The tension, and constant will they wont they, had me on the edge of my seat with my heart racing. The twist at the end had my heart dropping, but was such a perfect addition.

1.5 stars - both the mcs were unbearable and i don’t believe they’ll stay together at ALL

I enjoyed this but be warned: it is more angst than rom-com.
