Hold on to your horses, this one was really interesting.
5 STARS
Trope: true-enemies-to-lovers, marriage-of-convenience, secret-beta-hero, funny, independent-heroine, professional-heroine, strong-female-lead, hero-isn't-intimidated.
This is my first Stephanie Archer book and OH, MY. What an introduction.
The MFC is extremely independent, sporty, a medical doctor/researcher and $%^&* hates the MMC. He is a defenceman for the NHL team called Storms and ALSO $%^& hates MFC despite noticing her amazing shoe collection.
Take note authors: THIS IS A TRUE ENEMIES trope! The leads did not fall in love immediately in chapter 2. Their hate for earch other is OBVIOUS. They really go at each other. You can tell they really believe they hate each other. The MFC hates people in her space telling her what to do due to past trauma. The MMC hates rich snobby (hot) women due to past trauma.
They take their time addressing their preconceived notions about each other. The progression is AMAZING. It is Explicit open door and the writing in it is SO NATURAL yet exciting. Let's just say that the MFC is a control freak and the MMC really plays on it.
A wonderful, wonderful read. I immediately ordered all the other books in the series. One of my fave reads of the year.
