by Lucy Score
I'm a sucker for anything Lucy Score and as usual, she did not fail me. This is the fourth or fifth book of I've read and it's in my top three for sure (behind Things We Never Got Over and The Worst Best Man). This was a very well done enemies to lovers book, and I ate it up. Their banter and back and forth was like no other. And the chemistry? White hot. Dominic and Ally have each met their match and it was so fun to watch their story unfold. There were laugh out loud parts, steamy scenes, moments that made me tear up, and an ending that had me in full blown tears. I love that Lucy Score often writes books with older characters (generally in their late thirties and into their forties) because that's something that we so rarely get to see. Ally was the kind of heroine that you just root for. Yes, her life has been hard and she could be mean and angry at times, but given all that she had faced and was facing, could you really blame her? Dom was rich, but used his money for good, especially when it came to Ally. I adored the way he just wanted to protect her and help her. As per usual, Lucy Score is the master at world building and creating secondary characters that you love almost as much as the main characters. I LOVE that this book was set in the #metoo era and discussed and dealt with important topics like consent and sexual harassment, particularly in the workplace. The character growth that both Ally and Dom went through was tremendous and so well done. I was so happy that they grew and evolved, and both got happy endings and ultimately, the things they wanted that were independent of each other. Also, the twist with Dom's mom at the end? Okay, I see you! And can we get a Faith and Christian book? I'd read the crap out of that.
