Enzo is EXACTLY what Delia needs - a confident, no-nonsense man who can take her sharp tongued remarks and give them right back to her. He softens her rough edged and helps her to overcome her fears and past experiences with men who treated her poorly.
Their verbal sparing matches were spectacular as expected, but unfortunately I did find it hard to connect with the development of their affection with each other. Even though there were lots of sweet and sizzling moments, I found their relationship lacked a bit of warmth and seemed transactional at times. There was so much potential for growing sexual tension and angst, but it didn’t 100% hit the mark. I know that’s super on brand for Delia and Enzo’s personalities, but I found it harder to connect to them than some of the other moms & partners in previous books.
It was however amazing to get more insight into Delia’s world and to meet Enzo’s charming and loud Italian family! This book was a great conclusion to the whole series (both touching and hilarious). The bonus epilogue was nothing short of perfection and Delia’s chapter in particular was laugh-out-loud funny

So sad to see this series end! I loved every single book and this one was no exception. Delia had a TOUGH exterior to crack, but Enzo was so patient and understanding of her needs. The whole series was such a precious example of true friendship and what that looks like during the daily grind… through the good times and the not-so-good times. You will NOT be disappointed with any one of these books, friends. The spice is spicin’ in every one! Mother Hater is no exception!
