I wanted to love this book. As it was I enjoyed it quite a lot, but the version I read had a lot of issues.
First things first, I LOVED the premise of this book. Natalia was great and Luke was hot. They definitely worked as a couple.
The story though needs some work. It was slow. Then when we finally got there it finished in a rush. There were, what I consider quite important, details left out. Details about Luke and why he did what he did. Where was that the whole time? Plus, he’s described as a manwhore but we see none of that. In fact, he seems the opposite.
Also, why didn’t we see issues resolved at the end? It was such a major reason for what happened, but yet it’s brushed over with “we talked it over”. I WANT to see that! Don’t put me through what I went through then don’t show my why I had to go through it!
Then there’s timeline issues. Time jumps so quickly without anything showing the passing. Characters are introduced (Alex) who I had no idea where he came from. And when did CJ and Aliza get together?
There’s also continuity issues. Luke’s hair colour changes, as well as other details.
I received this ARC REALLY early, way over a month and a half before release. I really think the author should’ve waited, edited and edited again, before sending this out. These issues really did negatively impact my reading experience.
Having said that, I did like and enjoy this book and hope the kinks are worked out before release. 📖📖📖

An epic Frenemies to lovers romance.
Luke Caldwell has three abhorrent qualities to him:
Luke Caldwell has three abhorrent qualities to him:
1) He’s a pig-headed jock.
2) He’s a grade A asshole with the biggest, overbearing ego.
3) He’s a manwhore.
These three qualities alone should’ve had me running for the hills. I tried to steer clear of him, I really did, but it was an impossible feat. Luke Caldwell was nothing if not persistent and the way he bulldozed through my life, not taking no for an answer is proof of it.
I tried to stay away from him.
I wanted to hate him. But I couldn’t.
Luke was nothing like the idiot jock I pegged him out to be. He became a friend, a confidant, and after one unforgettable night, he became so much more.
Whatever this is between us, it’s impossible to ignore. I just hope when all is said and done, I won’t be burned by the college bad boy.
