Genres : Romance novel, Fiction, Contemporary romance Remember this is fiction! Enjoy!Įnemies to lovers trope is one of my favorites and the backstory of why Remember to read trigger warnings and if you’re affected by bully type books, don’t read it. I like character growth and it was there for me. I did like seeing Tate grow confidently in herself, even if it did take a while. I hated his friend Maddoc and at times I was upset with Tate, but the moment they do get together it was fireworks 💥 and I am all here for that built up tension of hate between the two. Heck, that sounds nice.Īnyway! The story itself is great, we do find out why Jared bullied her all those years and all it would have taken was communication, but they are teens so who communicates effectively at that age? I was along for the ride. Tate was bullied so badly that she leaves for a year and goes to France. Jared is a bully, a complete asshole to Tate when he returns one summer, where he turned his humanity switch off (TVD fans?). As you can tell by the title this type of book isn’t going to be for everyone. Jared and Tate grew up together, they were best friends, neighbors, they even shared a window view. My next series is going to be the Kill Switch series.

Penelope Douglas is a phenomenal romance writer and my love for her books began with Birthday Girl. My book review blog posts have slowed down a bit, because of my release month in April, but I’ll start these back up again.
