Weirdly enough the other romance novel I'm currently reading ("Romancing the Duke") is also involves forced proximity between enemy roommates to lovers because someone gave the heroine a home in their will that the hero is currently living in and refuses to move out of while she is determined to move in. Not mad about it.
I feel like they moved from enemies to flirty friends to lovers a bit quickly, but it's a novella, so that's expected. I liked how we get snippets over time showing their growth and that it touches on wider issues like sexism in STEM workplaces and climate change. However the family dynamic didn't seem fleshed out enough (again, that's probably due to the shortness of the form, I get it). Overall, a lovely read-in-one-sitting rom-com with a dash of spice.
