I won a giveaway copy of Battle Royal in 2021, and I loved it. Loved it! Couldn't wait for the sequel. And it was just as good as I was hoping. It had several of my favorite tropes - fake dating/real feels and grumpy vs sunshine - and it worked them to perfection.
Like Battle Royal and a lot of other romance novels, there is a lot of serious backstory - what happened to Padraig and who Pet's father is - within the story to round out the sweetness.
Thank you to Avon and NetGalley for the eARC.
