I enjoyed less than half of this book. 
We start off with the introduction of the main character  and their realtionship. We are supposed to believe they hate each other. I'm not sure why, but I did not feel hatrid. What I did feel was juvenile, prenting not to like each other. 
If you want a enemies to loves story, I wouldn't reccomend this one. 

I felt there was a lack of build up in the relationship. We went stright from annoying/agrivating each other to completely in love. 

Lucy is either very naïve or just plain dumb. Surely a woman of her age should be more awear of Josh's feelings, considering how much time they spend together. 

What I would have loved was more of "the game". It obviously has a large roll in the story, but I felt like it was quickly left behind.
