Not-exactly enemies to lovers.
Luc's cynism and self-deprecating doesn't let him see beyond himself most the time and also leads him to look and talk down to his family and friends. Which, as most romantic dramas, leads to miscommunication, which is really the plot.
Turns funny and cute towards the middle. Happy I heard the audiobook, but not sure I'd re-read it anytime soon.
