⭐⭐⭐ (3/5 stars)

From the moment I saw this cover, I was convinced I had to read this one. I mean, I don’t really read or write fan-fiction, so I was interested in giving this one a try, and since I hadn’t read anything from this author before, I figured this might be a really good time.

And, part of the time, it was.

Their enemies-to-more romance was really fun, and I found myself giggling over some of their conversations, and the passive-aggression during the book tour. That was definitely the most amusing part of this story in my opinion, and why I kept reading.

I mean, it’s enemies-to-more. Y’all know I have to read it.

The whole fan-fiction aspect added more depth to this story, I thought. I really liked how this author handled both sides of that issue, and it did make me think a fair bit about the ethics of fan-fiction. Her character seemed very interesting and I did feel like we could be friends based off what we hear of her thinking process.

The main guy was definitely the grumpy to her sunshine, and I was so glad that he got some serious character growth. I also thought that he had very valid reasons for wanting to not be emotionally vulnerable, and I thought the author did a good job of writing that aspect of the story.

I will say that I did have one significant issue with this book… and that would be the stalker. I mean, I really wasn’t expecting that part– it kind of felt out of left field. I don’t know how to explain it, but it definitely felt like a really gross and weird element in what would otherwise have been a perfectly normal rom-com. Just too creepy for my taste in a rom-com.

There also were some fairly descriptive kissing scenes that made me feel uncomfortable, so I went ahead and skimmed those. It crossed some lines as far as I’m concerned, but there wasn’t anything open-door, if that makes sense. I would say this book is really going to be a decision based on how you feel about levels of romancing and creepy stalkers in your book.

This story was available on Kindle Unlimited, and I was very excited to be able to give this one a shot. While it wasn’t necessarily a winner for me, I did enjoy parts a lot, which is why I’m giving it three stars, because the whole fan-fiction aspect was so interesting– and something I knew virtually nothing about.
