Tough Luck by Liv Morris
5.0
4.5 stars
Tough Luck is a sexy and fun enemies to lovers romance. Amelia and Bryce are both independent and headstrong people, who each have something to prove to themselves and the public. The story is told from both of their points of views and it definitely made each of them more relatable and human. I really loved the inner monologue of each character and of course, the chemistry between Bryce and Amelia.
Bryce is both cocky and vulnerable at the same time. He has built a wall around his heart to battle his inner demons and I loved how he and Amelia took it down brick by brick. Amelia is confidant and not afraid to say what she wants (and where she wants it!) There was no heavy drama or angst in their relationship. Just the perfect amount to keep things burning and worth the wait. The banter back and forth helped lighten the mood and I really enjoyed Bryce's relationship with his mother and Amelia's use of nicknames throughout the book. Jaws. Sigh.
I did feel that it was a little too instalove between our characters, but the physical attraction was always there, so it wasn't too unbelievable. Once things got rolling between them though, I was definitely on that ship and rooting for their HEA. The ending was wonderfully sweet and I wouldn't mind seeing another story or novella about these 2. Bryce Luck is my new book boyfriend :)
