Engaging the Office Enemy by Kristin Canary
3.0

This was a good, fun, light-hearted read. It took me about a day to finish, and I did read this as a stand-alone not realizing it was part of a series. There’s definitely things I could have missed in the other books that would have helped bring more depth to this one.

I am a big fan of the enemies-to-lovers trope and this didn’t disappoint. I love the teasing banter between Dax and Alexis, but when they were on the cruise for the fake-dating portion of this, some of the things made me cringe. Booger Bear as a nickname for even your worst enemy is still a hard pass for me, but just because I couldn’t ever imagine calling anyone that. Definitely could have picked other pet names that were more believable.

Kind of interested in seeing Kennedy’s story now!
