TikTok made me read this one, I was surprised to see it as a 99p kindle deal and thought I would see what all the fuss is about, as everyone and their dog seems to love this book.
I enjoyed this romance, it was sweet, but towards the end I perhaps had lost interest and was just willing it to end, the pacing felt a bit off to me.
It was fine, a gay romance, which was a great change to the format but it was a little bit insta love and I found that a bit odd, also this is an enemies to lovers but they were only enemies for about 5 seconds, as all the build up happens before the book starts and if feels like we are just told about it but not really shown so the tension wasn't really there for me.
I liked the premise, and the characters were sweet but it wasn't that deep. If you're looking for a easy going, but steamy romance, you'll not go far wrong with this.
