Were do I start?

I loved this book I finally get what all the hype is about. First off I listened to the audiobook and the narrator just perfected the voices of all the characters. The sarcasm and witty humour had me literally laughing out loud while I was waiting for my bus home from work. (glad no one was around)

Alex and Henry are ‘enemies’, or so they think. One being the presidents son and one being a prince they have a lot on their plate so them being slated in the tabloids is not a good look for anyone of the families. Can I just say that this didn’t feel like a hate to love romance it definitely felt more like a denial to love romance and I was here for it all the way through.

All the characters dialogue just flowed seamlessly weather Alex was speaking to Henry, Nora or June. They all just had a vibe that made you believe people would say what they are saying although I do think in reality we’d all need more time to think about witty remarks especially so many time in a conversation. The character were very fleshed out and made you love them. Alex and Henry are different but they want for the same future.

The story of how they got together makes me feel like I’ve just read a book of their whole like I can’t believe at the start of this book they were only messing around and now, now they are love. All the sneaking about, believing it was only physical, getting the families to understand and let their truth be heard was all worth it in the end for them to finally end up together.

So safe to say I loved this book and it’s one of my favourite romances of the year!
