3.0

I love the premise of workplace enemies to lovers, but nothing ever lives up to the emotional high of The Hating Game (for me personally). Izzy and Lucas are very sweet together, and I liked how the development of their relationship felt a little awkward but also believable. Nonexistent on spice factor, but it was a good Christmas read all the same!
