Penelope Ward
From New York Times best-selling author Penelope Ward comes a new, stand-alone novel.
Reasons why I should not be drawn to Troy Serrano. Number one: He’s obnoxious. Number two: He and I were enemies more than a decade ago, in high school. Number three: He’s my friend’s ex-boyfriend.
I could go on and on, really.
When my boss gives me an unwanted assignment and tells me it involves spending time with the grandson of one of our residents, the grandson turns out to be Troy. He’s now as successful as he is undeniably handsome. Lucky me. Four hours a week of having to deal with his insufferable personality and unsolicited advice - the only consolation is getting to stare at his annoyingly gorgeous face, in between our many arguments.
Eventually, though, we slowly warm to each other, and our outings become something I actually look forward to. What’s happening to me?
Apparently, I misunderstood the assignment - because it certainly didn’t include thinking about Troy when I close my eyes at night, imagining what it would be like with him, just once. All the while hating myself for fantasizing about a guy who’s all wrong for me. A guy whose car I keyed back in the day. (Long story, but he deserved it.)
That’s all this is - a fantasy. Well, until that one night at the bar. The night Troy and I run into each other and all of our pent-up frustration comes barreling out.
Still, I refuse to accept that it means anything. There’s no way the guy I’m supposed to hate is also the one I can’t live without.

Awesome Book
Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
At the beginning it made me laugh a lot, and I continued to do so through out the book in a lesser amount but still laughed.
I must say Penelope Ward has a great sense of humor and I LOVED the obituaries, so much so that I wrote this review mostly to thank her for them, specially the last one ;)

Also, that actions have consequences that aren’t always understood at the time,
And that forgiveness and taking responsibility can set one free.

Spoiler Alert!!!!
This is a ten year later post high school enemies to lovers. I think it’s a sweet story with the male lead wanting to be a better person. And I love the amount of time he spends with his grandfather. The female lead takes care of her niece and has since her sisters passing 8 years prior. She became the primary guardian with assistance from her parents. I don’t think the female characters parents relationship infidelity and staying together added anything good to the story. I would have preferred that to have been left out.

No spoilers here - but that curveball declaration had me picking my jaw up off the floor. Great characters and narration was great. Worth the credit.
