4 wonderful stars!

Now, this was a great answer to this prompt!

Josh and Stu are both a little akward, both a little lost, and even though they don't see each other that often over the years, when they do, things heat up pretty damn fast. Mostly in a hostile way. No matter what the circumstances, or the occasion. They meet, they exchange and things escalate.

It was wonderful to watch their interactions over the years. And even though I'm not a big fan of the "misunderstanding-leads-to-enemies" - trope, this one was done so well and so smoothly, I fell right in and never got out until the very end. It was like an adult version of the neverending pulling of pigtails gone bad. Awesome! And soo delicious in the end. Maybe a little too smooth, considering the history these two share. But other than that? Wonderful!

Definitely one of my favorite LHNB stories! Read it and prepare to smile and shake your head at the same time.

I was so torn between rounding up or rounding down. I liked this a lot, the secondary characters were very well developed and a lot happened. There was a bit of humor as you can see in my updates. But there were about three too many miscommunications/missed years. This went on a long time, over a decade with large gaps in between. Which is OK. But obviously we all knew since Mexico that Stu's attitude was transparent. The drama and tension was good, it just went on for so long and didn't get resolved until the end, that we didn't really get to enjoy that aspect much before it was over. Aaaaand since we had Josh's POV, obviously he seemed the more wronged. Stu was just such a prick, that it made it hard to picture a good relationship with him, despite him having had his reasons. So I would have liked to see some of that instead of just an Epilogue telling us that they're still good a few months later.

This could have been so good. I've always loved an enemies to lovers story. But when you have a book like this, for me, it's hard to connect. The MC's did not become a couple until the story was almost over... Not something you want to be able to say...

I loved this story! It was a wonderful journey, spanning many years, from Josh and Stu's first meeting and kiss that triggers it all. Josh and Stu don't see a lot of each other during this time but when they do, sparks fly - usually as they are annoying each other or fighting. Things never end well!We follow Josh through his career as a professional rugby player and experience all the joys and sorrows of his family life from funerals to weddings, all of which seem to be intertwined with Stu's family as Josh and Stu's sisters are best friends.The final scenes are brilliant - Josh and Stu finally get it together and first Josh's Dad and then Stu's Mum, walk in on them - hilarious!. There's tension and stupidity, some sadness and finally happiness plus the story has some genuinely funny moments. Best line? Josh meeting an older gay couple at a wedding... "Why, when I was young, I had to walk five miles in the snow to get to the nearest glory hole."Once again I feel blessed to get such a great story for free!
