SloaneDominic Alexander is my late husband's best friend and the last man on Earth that I should want. He's arrogant, dismissive, and up until recently has only ever used those dark eyes of his to look right through me. For the last twelve years, he's taken a sick pleasure in making me feel paper thin, like my entire existence is of no consequence to him at all.But now, things are different.After one drunken night, and a surprisingly sexy act of heroism, he's started to be...nice. Treating me like something other than the physical embodiment of his annoyance, which would be nice if it didn't make me feel all the things I swore to never feel for another man after my husband died.DominicSloane Kent is going to be my undoing.What's worse: I think I'm going to enjoy being unravelled by the gold flecks in her hazel eyes and the adorable little way she scrunches her nose up when we're arguing, which we've done a lot of over the past decade. She thinks it's because I hate her, and I've always let her think that because the alternative is...untenable.But something is changing between us, and I don't know how to stop myself from breaking every promise I've ever made to myself regarding my best friend's wife. Promises that include never telling her that there's a long list of things I feel about her, but hate isn't one of them.

"3.5/5 ⭐️ This book was long!! I enjoyed it but the beginning was slow. I liked the characters and how it all came together but the tension for so much of it was because the mmc was worried about what her mil would think. Then at the end it was barely addressed. I liked the themes grief and the flashbacks (sometimes I don't love a flashback but there were well placed abs meaningful). There was quite a bit of spice but it kind of just made the book longer instead of adding to the story. It wasn't bad just some scenes were long for no reason other than to add spice. I love a spice dominant book but this felt like more than necessary for the tone of the book and the kind of spice. 3.5-4 spice level. Again there are a lot of scenes but minimal variety. "

"Where the hell is my Dominic ??? Sloane, I would take your man… stop playing. 𝨭 I’m jk, jk. Or am I ?? 𝡀 Dominic and Sloane are so cute together. This man has me and Sloane weak in the knees, at one point I wanted to throw both of them over my lap and give them both a spanking because why are y’all playing around ?? Make this relationship happen ! But after all of those obstacles, they had their Hea. It was worth the frustration and the tears. This book was beautifully written, my emotions were flowing for Sloane and Dominic, they both had it rough. I’m so glad that they found comfort and love within each other"

"The people who feel undeserving of love are typically the ones who deserve it most.
This was such a complex love story that leaves you hoping to one day find a love that is restorative with someone who loves even the deepest parts of yourself that you hate most.
A controversial version of the ‘enemies to lovers’ trope but done beautifully and riddled with more than enough ‘excitement’ to make you wish you were there!"
