I gotta be honest, this is probably one of my least liked novels by Denise Williams :( I wanted to love this one so bad but there were too many iffy aspects that got in the way.

For example, my biggest pet peeve is that this book is advertised as an enemies to lovers when in reality, it is the farthest thing from that trope. Enemies to lovers in a contemporary novel is very hard to pull off. The stakes are never high enough and more likely than not, the reason the couple dislikes each other is usually super petty. As evident in Do You Take This Man, RJ and Lear "hate" each other over a disastrous first meeting and not gonna lie, Lear came off as a total asshole!

Which brings me to my next point, I did not like Lear. Your tragic past is never an excuse to act like a dick! It was an immediate turn off when he told RJ to "smile more." It's actually insane to me that RJ forgave him (I speak as if they're real, but still, LOL). If it had happened to me I would've told him to shove his smile request up his ass. Lear had some serious red flags all throughout the book, adopting this whole "nice guy finish last" mindset to get over his ex and his alcoholic tendencies when he got particularly sad being the top two. This is a couple I'm confident do not last past the epilogue. 

All in all, I would not recommend this book. It wasn't completely terrible, however it's not something I'd ever re-read again.
