shane is a precious bean and ilya is a perfect grumpy boy. pro sports is high stakes but add in a MM relationship and this shit is forbidden af.īoth of these characters own my fucking heart. but regardless i just don't think enemies to lovers is ever very high stakes or well executed. it usually happens in YA since characters aren't allowed to bone as the kind of intermediary step.

I think my main gripe about enemies to lovers is that authors are so quick to jump from characters that loathe each other to characters that would die for each other. it felt like this book was written just for me. there were HIGH stakes, TONS of steamy scenes, and a relationship that built over YEARS. this is probably my favorite enemies to lovers romance of all time. THIS WAS SO FCKING GOOD! and proves why i shouldn't film my best of videos until like.
