Lucas Thatcher has always been my enemy.
It’s been a decade since I’ve seen him, but our years on opposite coasts were less of a lasting peace and more of a temporary cease-fire. Now that we’re both back in our small town, I know Lucas expects the same old war, but I’ve changed since high school—and from the looks of it, so has he.
The arrogant boy who was my teenage rival is now a chiseled doctor armed with intimidating good looks. He is Lucas Thatcher 2.0, the new and improved version I’ll be competing with in the workplace instead of the schoolyard.
I’m not worried; I’m a doctor now too, board-certified and sexy in a white coat. It almost feels like winning will be too easy—until Lucas unveils a tactic neither of us has ever used before: sexual warfare.
The day he pushes me up against the wall and presses his lips to mine, I can’t help but wonder if he’s filling me with passion or poison. Every fleeting touch is perfect torture. With every stolen kiss, my walls crumble a little more. After all this time, Lucas knows exactly how to strip me of my defenses, but I’m in no hurry to surrender.
Knowing thy enemy has never felt so good.
This book was just a fun, fun, fun, fun read. Did I say fun? I'm a huge fan of the enemies-to-lovers trope and this one spins it on its head. Lucas and Daisy haven't spoken or seen each other in over eleven years, after both have been away from each other, studying and becoming medical doctors. That is, until they both come back to their hometown and realize they have to start working with each other.
Daisy is competitive as hell, which added to the hilarious exchanges between the two. And just when I thought we needed to get a little more insight into Lucas's mind, his own chapters begin around the Chapter 9 mark. That's when we see the softer side of Lucas, and even though he appears to be as cool as a cucumber on the outside, he's just as much as hot and bothered by Daisy as she is of him.
This is perfect for fans of The Hating Game by Sally Thorne. It provides the feels, the witty banter, and the classic work setting where we get to see the two main characters' friendship and love grow and deepen. I absolutely enjoyed every second of their story and I hope you will too! It was such an awesome escape and a beautiful romance that leaves you hopeful for the happily ever after.



I am a lover of books, chocolate, reality TV, black labs, and cold weather. Seriously, if I had it my way I would be curled up on the couch with all of those things… everyday.
I live in Texas where I spend my free time writing and reading. My favorite authors are Mindy Kaling & Jonathan Safran Foer. I’m a comedy geek and love all things “funny”. Women like Tina Fey, Amy Poehler, and Mindy Kaling are definitely the biggest inspirations for my writing, though I think my work tends to skew a bit smuttier than theirs.
