4.0

I enjoyed this romance. The enemies-to-lovers and inconvenient-love tropes worked. This is the perfect book for anyone who wasn't thrilled with the outcome of the 2016 US Presidential election. The revisionist history takes you to a very happy place.

This book would be rated R for language (I had to look up a couple of phrases in Urban Dictionary) and sex (you definitely know what is happening.)
