I love books about books and I love enemies to lovers. However, this book felt repetitive to me. They fight, they make up, will they/won't they. Some parts were exciting but the majority was a tad too slow for me.
The ending was passable.

This isn't my first Jasmine Guillory book, and the main reason I picked it up was to tick off one of the "Kindle Reading Challenge" boxes. That being said, I'm sure I'll somehow make my way back to this author and I certainly hope that it will be more my style.
