This works well to set up the series and give Eli and Violet some depth, as they now have some space to show more sides of their personality when they’re not at each others’ throats. So it doesn’t get into the zone of too many supporting characters that I find tedious, because I just can’t care about that many people at one time. Eli has a ton of brothers, but Noir wisely focuses in on only two of them, so while we meet a lot of people, only a handful get a lot of page time. And of course, there’s the telltale twinge in Eli’s chest that reinforces to the reader that this is real. Violet knows that telling Eli his family is nicer than he is won’t actually hurt his feelings. “There’s gotta be some catch,” I say, pulling her onto my chest.Įli knows saying he’ll “bang her like a screen door” will get a rise out of her. I slide one arm underneath her, grab her by the waist, and pull her in toward myself as she yelps. “Eli, I already know your family,” she points out. “You’re not gonna pester me to meet my family?” “You’re not gonna be mad if I don’t get you flowers on your birthday, or Valentine’s day,” I say. The twinge digs a little deeper, and I continue to ignore it.

She looks back, clearly determined not to look at my dick, tenting up the bed sheets like there’s a circus in there as my capacity for talking gets shorter and shorter.

I don’t know how to quantify it, but every time I was reading scenes where they were interacting, or even talking or thinking about each other, I was like, “Yup definitely, A+.” Here they are agreeing to a benefits-only relationship after their first night together: Maybe especially when they hate each other. Violet and Eli have off-the-charts chemistry, even when they ostensibly hate each other. Here’s what’s so great about this book: The banter is really top-notch. (This does not seem like a good way to encourage employees to collaborate and support one another.) However, since they’re competitive but not monsters, they find themselves working together when the sabotage starts.

And since their boss is literally the worst, they are competing again, this time for “Employee of the Season,” which comes with a $20,000 bonus. Now, after about a decade of not seeing each other, they’re both back in their hometown, working for the same fancy wedding venue. This rivalry was accompanied by occasional moments of pure meanness (some of the things that they recall saying to each other are pretty brutal). Mainly this competition seems to have been academic, and as a fellow hyper-competitive nerd who was really good at taking tests, I can frankly relate to this energy.

Violet and Eli have known each other-and been in competition with each other-since they were kids. Overall: Did I immediately read Book #2 in the series? Yes, yes I did.
