This is a fun guilty-pleasure read. It’s predictable and somewhat tropey, but it has some interesting plot points and some good writing. The likable side characters (especially Dee) are another highlight.

This wasn’t a five-star read for me because the story focuses too much on physical attraction (after Trent gets Natasha fired, she’s still thinking about how hot he is?!) and there’s a major relationship event that felt out-of-order.

However, I still enjoyed this book and it was satisfying to see Trent’s character growth. I rate this story 3.5 stars rounded up to 4.

Content notes: profanity, sexual content

This book was so good - it was a true grumpy/sunshine book! Natasha is a hellcat on wheels - she's fierce and fiesty and oh so sunny. Trent is a stuck-up grump who is just miserable. The other characters are all fantastic, and all together they make this into such a wonderful book. I loved how their attraction naturally just grew from the start, and I really enjoyed the ending.
Thank you so much to NetGalley for this e-arc in exchange for my honest review.
