Este romance, apesar do género, não foi lá muito focado no romance.
Como sempre, gosto da fluidez da escrita destas autoras e das vibes descontraídas e sedutoras dos seus livros, porém, este ficou-se por um bom passar de tempo sem ser muito arrebatador.
No começo, eu estava super que a shippar a Evie e o Carter 😍 a química deles era perfeita! Mas sabendo pelo título e sinopse que ia haver problemas deixou-me logo triste. 
Achei a ideia de eles serem agentes de cinema em Hollywood e competirem pelo mesmo posto uma ideia interessante, e pareceu realista no descrever da profissão. Foi bom mostrar o machismo no local de trabalho e favoritismo, detestei tanto o Brad que tenho de elogiar as autoras.
A guerra deles durou um pouco de tempo a mais e quando se deram as partidas já estava a sentir que era engraçado, mas a descambar para o infantil. Como sempre, os grupos de amigos são importantes nos livros das autoras e são sempre as minhas cenas preferidas. Até direito a encen ção à filmes de ação tiveram 😂
Estou curiosa para continuar a progredir na bibliografia das Christina Lauren e descobrir qual será o meu favorito.
Rating ⭐ ⭐ ⭐.25

3.0

this book was easy to get through and kept me entertained. the premise was interesting and i liked that the authors shed a light on gender differences in the workplace.
however i had a really hard time liking the characters. i found both carter and evie to be pretty annoying and also kind of overdramatic. carter especially i felt like would get upset over very small things.
i also think the resolution came very quickly and out of the blue. overall the book was okay, but i won’t read again.
