5.0

It's an enemies-to-lovers story in the most wonderfully tense, forbidden-love kind of way. It's immensely satisfying to see very different people become more and more curious about each other's lives and thoughts. The pacing of this book is beautiful.
The first "I love you" spills out in an overflowing deluge after being held back behind the dam for so long.
