Tempt Thy Neighbor by Teagan Hunter
4.0
This was another fun, fast and super-steamy second-chance/enemies-to-lovers romance by Teagan Hunter! It was a little hard to buy into the romance at the very beginning with how vehemently Holland hated on Sutton and with how he came across as pretty douchey. These two did grow on me the further I read though!
I liked that they came from similar backgrounds with overbearing (and actually quite awful) parents who cared more about money and social status than they did their children. I found it interesting that Sutton was the more vulnerable in the relationship thanks to his awful parents and his lack of a supportive network. While that doesn't excuse his douchebro-ness at the beginning of the story, I loved seeing his demeanour change to become more caring and sweet as he got more comfortable with Holland. Holland is a smart go-getter and though I'd probably not get along with someone so competitive IRL, I did admire how hard she worked to get what she wanted and where she wanted to be! These two had some pretty sizzling chemistry and holy wow, that sexual tension.... Hunter really did the steamy in this one!
