There will be spoilers in this review because there has to be. A blow by blow account of the book; though often frowned upon in reviews, is needed in this one. Once upon a time a screenshot was posted of the synopsis for this book. It was bad and in a very strange twist it was the badness that drew me in.

Romance in the workplace
Like many good romance novels I’ve discovered, I first heard of Dating You/Hating You (2017) by Christina Lauren* on the Cannonball website.

I borrowed it for free through Amazon Prime, and will be buying it (through the CBR link) as soon as this review posts. Metalsmith Evan Miller is new to the small town of Ravenswood. As an outsider, he’s not quite sure what to make of his next door […]
