After rereading: 4.25⭐️ I enjoyed this so so much. While I wanted to just yell at them to kiss already, they both had very real things to overcome before being together. Their pasts are both very traumatic. It got more lighthearted as it went on. The language and cultural barrier was so funny at times. Haeden’s utter devotion to Josie was SO sweet. So many cute moments. 

Original review: 3⭐️ This is like ultimate enemies to lovers. This couple has intrigued me throughout all of the other books so I was excited to read this one. Poor Haedon! His story was so sad. I loved reading this!

I've truly been waiting to start Haeden and Josie's story since they first grumped towards each other like three books ago. I wasn't disappointed, they might be my favorite of the couples to date. This is practically a slowburn for Dixon, as Josie (for understandable reasons that include the fact Haeden has been a dick to her and because she's been sexually abused in her past--don't let the other reviews here mislead you) holds off on the whole mating thing. But it's fun to see how Dixon essentially makes the same plot exciting each time!
