I am definitely in my Lynn Painter Era! I say this about a lot of books, but this one was so cute!!! Very easy read & definitely lives up to its name. 

Wes & Liz are your picture perfect enemies to lovers! Living next door to each other their entire lives and fighting over “The Spot”, the best parking spot on their street, every single day! 
Liz has a HUGE crush on an old friend who just moved back into town and she’s going to use Wes to help her ‘get the guy’ in exchange for “The Spot”! But while Wes is helping Liz score her dream man, the veil over her eyes is uncovered as she spends more and more time with him. Liz soon realizes he’s not so bad and he’s super duper hot, so it’s not so bad when she starts catching feelings!


The book has the ultimate aww factor that continues to make your heart flutter with every line. The narrator did such an amazing job and told the story very well!!
