Had to skip some scenes due to a lot of violence around sex scenes 

Conflict escalated in ways that didn’t make sense, chemistry between mc not believable

Generally enjoyable enemies to lovers and very fun characters and interactions. The “hate sex” scenes were fun for the most part. Didn’t love that last one tho. See content warnings. Not my cup of tea. Otherwise I enjoyed it ☺️

I had a really hard time at the beginning of the book, it even got me into a readers block but at the end
(once they started “dating”)
I started loving the book. Definitely not the best book of the series though. Still can’t wait to start the next book though

This is the sort of misogyny in porn. Tell me why every 2 chapters those two have "sex"

Honestly i understand why Josh was pissed, but what he said sbout her body snd while they were having sex is horrible.

Though Alex and Ava getting engaged? And them going to new fucking zealand? MWAH

I'm mixed about this book. The relationship with Jules and Chen is good in the end. And I like the "enemies" to lovers aspect. However... 

Spoilers ahead: 
There's a difference between make up sex and revenge sex that borders abuse. When Jules comes clean to Chen, the sex scene following was almost enough for me to DNF it. I get that Chen was hurt, but that was uncalled for and very hard to read from a DV survivors standpoint.
