I could hardly put it down! This book kept me awake until 3:30am.

The Launch Date by Annabelle Slator is a sexy enemies-to-lovers novel that restored my faith in the trope. Sworn enemies, Grace and Eric are forced to work together on the launch of a new dating app. Making partnerships with various brands around the city, the pair go together to test out the date ideas before they are used as part of the brand launch. Slowly, we learn how they came to be sworn enemies, figure out the dynamics of their rivalry, and discover alongside them that maybe they actually just make a really great team.

I thought this was a well written, compelling read. I was able to believe in the dynamic between the two and get wrapped up in their story as it unfolded, in all it´s (tense, frustrating and ultimately sexy) glory. 

Grace as a character was a little frustrating as our narrator at times and her communication was extremely poor and immature, and there was also a scene with an ex-boyfriend which I found a little over the top, but all-in-all it was a really enjoyable read!


Tropes: enemies to lovers, forced proximity, office romance, billionaire romance, fake dating (kinda), only one bed.
