How to Kiss Your Enemy by Jenny Proctor

4.0

MY FAVORITE IN THIS SERIES... SO FAR!
If you ask me who my favorite Hawthorne brother is, hands down, I'll say Lennox. Author Jenny Proctor has NAILED IT with this newest release! I could not put this book down and devoured it in a little under twenty-four hours.

HIGHLIGHTS:
Charming, NC Mountain Farm · Brotherhood and Family · Enemies to Lovers in Forced Proximity · Winning a Girl’s Heart through her Giant, Fluffy Dog · Daddy Issues/Running Away · Snowed-in Power Outage

I was here for this book. There's nothing I didn't love. Lennox and Tatum are fantastic together and from the very first line, I was hooked. The verbal battles, the chemistry, the romance, the food... it was all so perfect. It was rewarding to see Tatum grow as a person throughout the story; she was endearing and relatable. And Lennox... That man was the epitome of a hero with his grouchiness, flirting and cooking. His character growth wasn't as drastic, but it was humbling and sweet.

I enjoyed that the focus of the story remained on the two main characters, with little "drop-ins" from Lennox's brothers and their wives (book 1 & 2). The family vibes were strong and beautiful; I love how the Hawthorne's pull together and support each other. Lennox's decisions toward the end of the book really sealed who he was as a man and as a Hawthorne. Pretty sure the author is going to have to work really hard to top this book next. I can’t wait for the next book in this series. I will definitely be returning for more.

CONTENT + TRIGGER NOTES:
Toxic parental relationship (light). Romance: Clean, PG - detailed kissing, touches and embraces, making out. No profanity, violence. Alcohol: Minor consumption.
