El mismo libro te dice qué va a tratar cuando uno de los personajes dice: “Solo quiero odiarte, tenerte, f***rte y pelear contigo”, de ahí en más no hay otra cosa que el libro trate. Es algo que se lee rápido y, aunque hay más, no sé si continuaré con la trilogía. 

Oh my god this was so hot. 
I finished it in one sitting, its so fast paced, so fun, and it has a great rivals to lovers plot.
I loved the characters, especially the way they talk to each other was so fun.

I would have loved some flashback scenes from the past to understand more about their dynamic when they were younger, so I wish that was a part of this. 

Also, don't get me wrong, I loved the brother characters but sometimes they were very creepily invested into their little brothers' love lives. It felt a little weird to me, but it might just be my opinion. 

Overall I enjoyed this.

2.5 stars

Look, you have gotta understand this is not really a 5-star read because some plot points were messed up to get it together by the end, and even HIGH ON THE ENDORPHINS I got from reading this I noticed, BUT THIS IS A FIVE STARS READ-IN MY HEART AT 3:52 AM OF A WEDNESDAY WHERE I'M WRITING THIS.

I love me a good cliche well done, and Nordika did them all justice.

TRUE Enemies to lovers? ✔️
Who did this to you? ✔️
Touch him and die? ✔️
There was only one bed? ✔️
Gay chicken? ✔️
Taunts and sexy bets?✔️
Jealous, possessive bastards?✔️

ALL OF THEM WERE WELL DONE. Like, you wouldn't believe it because this got only 300 pages and she also gave us PLOT, AND CHARACTER DEVELOPMENT.

And I realized it was gonna be a good one when 30 pages in I was inside their heads and understanding exactly what made them thick. Nordika IS THAT GOOD. The fact that they got together but the rivalry still stands? CHEFF KISS.

i might be rating this a bit high. The two main characters seemed pretty immature but I also know that when raised in horrible homes it does take longer to mature in the world. So I'm giving it a pass. Also, I just wanted them to all just up and leave. Get your lives together ppl!
This relationship was incredibly toxic... So if that bothers you then I wouldn't read. 

dnf at 70%, not bad, just not for me.

This one started out quite strong for me, i love a good enemies to lovers and this one definitely had that at the start. But it quickly started falling apart and got really repetitive in the characters dialogue. The ‘I still hate you but i'm confused and you're f* with my head' conversations seem to happen every time the two characters came together and it never really differed that much throughout my reading experience.

I really enjoyed the premise, concept, the beginning and one of the characters; but the writing, pacing and execution just didn't land for me.

Onto the next one!
