This is so damn delightful. Really enemies-to-lovers cosplayers are everything I didn't know I was missing in life. The book is a bit garish and over-the-top unrealistic in only the most fabulous way. The lack of realism and resulting whimsy are an unmitigated joy that makes this book a fantastic escapism read.
In short, he was the one man I loathed more than anyone else I'd ever met.
He was also the one with his hand currently down my trousers giving me the most exquisite handjob.
Like I said, hatred is a complicated emotion. (10)
No big serious issues in this book, just a well-written enemies-to-lovers romance. The hate sex scenes in this are damn fun (not the best sex of the book, but fun), I always love an enemies-while-lovers phase in the process to just lovers. Loved the timeline and how the relationship developed over the course of literal years.
