True Enemies to Lovers 📚🔥

One heck of an amazing b^lly romance that delivers such a good storyline to go with it! Their relationship build-up wasn't rushed, it took time to go from the feelings of hate to love, especially on Rome's part and I loved that Elodie was far from a pushover throughout all of his antics!
