J. Sterling is a new to me author and I absolutely loved this enemies to lover romance.
James and Julia grew up right next to each other, however, they were also told they could never be friends, so dating was definitely out of the question.
Their families have been at war with each other for generations. James and Julia were raised to hate each other. This story was a very modern Romeo and Juliet romance. They claim to hate each other, but there is a fine line between love and hate.

James wasn’t afraid to admit his feelings and everyone around him knew that he only had eyes for one person, Julia. Julia on the other hand was afraid to admit her true feelings about James. She wasn’t willing to risk everything on something that was a for sure thing.

I loved the chemistry between James and Julie. I loved the family feud aspect of the story. The town bet. Everyone wanted those two to be together, well, minus their families. This was a fun enemies to lovers romance and perfect for a relaxing afternoon.
