A USA TODAY BESTSELLER!A Best of the Month Pick from:Amazon · Apple · LibraryReadsChildhood enemies discover the fine line between love and loathing in this heartfelt reimagining of Shakespeare’s The Taming of the Shrew. Katerina Wilmot and Christopher Petruchio shared backyards as kids, but as adults they won’t even share the same hemisphere. That is, until Kate makes a rare visit home, and their fiery animosity rekindles into a raging inferno. Despite their friends’ and families' pleas for peace, Christopher is unconvinced Kate would willingly douse the flames of their enmity. But when a drunken Kate confesses she’s only been hostile because she thought he hated her, Christopher vows to make peace with Kate once and for all. Tempting as it is to be swept away by her nemesis-turned-gentleman, Kate isn’t sure she can trust his charming good-guy act. When Christopher’s persistence and Kate’s curiosity lead to an impassioned kiss, they realize “peace” is the last thing that will ever be possible between them. As desire gives way to deeper feelings, Kate and Christopher must decide if it’s truly better to hate than to never risk their hearts—or if they already gave them away long ago.

"3.5/5 ⭐️ dual pov. This book just didn’t click for me. It was well written and I like the characters but I just didn’t connect with the story. When I put it down I forgot what was happening in the book. As always Chloe Liese included some great mental health and chronic illness rep. Also the FMC is Demi-sexual and I thought that was written well. Overall it was a good enemies to lovers but not a top Chloe Liese book for me. There was a decent amount of spice in the last 1/3rd of the book 1.5-2/5 spice level. "

"Another deftly handled slice of perfection from truly one of my favorite authors. There is nothing I love more than diving into these amazing stories, filled with love and acceptance. These are realistic characters working through their issues and I"
