This is one of the best non-spicy romance novels I’ve ever read! I absolutely loved this book, it was very engaging and I was completely riveted. The trope had me hooked from start to end, you could see the characters’ hatred slowly morph into love. Ann Liang’s use of language is out of this world and it really allowed me to feel like I was right there with all the characters, experiencing firsthand the drama when Sadie’s ‘hate’ emails were sent out. Each scene added to the overall story and their behaviours and nervous tell-tales were all so adorable. 🥰 I also loved the mini plot-twist during the lake retreat that hooked me in so much.

I just couldn’t get enough of Sadie and Julius, I felt like there needed to be more intimate scenes. 🙈🙈Furthermore, there wasn’t much of Julius’ background which, if included, could really have brought more to the (family) context of why he feels the need to one-up Sadie.
