 Content Warnings: sexual content, grief, toxic relationships, loss of a parent[s], classism, and death.
Mention of: dementia, abandonment, verbal/emotional abuse.

Yay! Okay, so I guess I really didn't need to read book 1 to read this one. This book was definitely more my style than the first book.

We get two headstrong individuals who are also both filled with insecurities from past relationships...who end up falling for each other. What starts out as more or less enemies to lovers switches to reluctant allies in a fauxmance to romance.

I absolutely LOVE romance novels that have meddling/matchmaking grandparents...there's just something about them that just takes a romance to an entirely different level.

I'm even more excited to jump into book 3 and see how their romance unfolds!

"You drive me truly, utterly, entirely, mad," he whispers, his forehead pressed against mine.

tropes: boss/employee, possessive and protective hero, marriage of convenience, he falls first and harder
