Erin is now in her thirties and didn't understand why she had returned to Jasper Falls and was working for her dad at his hardware store. She had no one to turn to as everyone in this town hated her and admired her father. No one would ever believe the nightmare she lived. She had pushed everyone away her entire life as getting close just meant pain - because everyone she had cared about had deserted her.
She had even been mean to her best friend since kindergarten when she figured out that he had no plans to leave Jasper Falls and was going to join his family's lumber business. So when she hears him speaking to his daughter while she was waiting for her dad's prescription she tried to make herself invisible, but he saw her immediately and invited her to the town's pub since his cousin was in town and would be performing.
Giovanni was back in his hometown. The last place he wanted to be. He loved his family, but they had never failed to let him know what they thought of his career choice as a stand-up comic. His career was stagnating and he wasn't sure how to get it back on track he hated that he might have to work for his family's business after all.
He was on stage at O'Malley's when he heard someone make a loud comment and realized he had material gold in front of him. Erin Montgomery - the town witch. After leaving O'Malley's he was the only idiot on the road driving in this blizzard. Instead of staying with any of his massive family, he was staying at a motel outside of town.
As he was fighting to see the highway before him he notices figures eights across the highway and treads leading into the trees. After sliding down the embankment to help, he realizes it was Erin. His enemy. And he was now stuck with her in the freezing cold since he now had a dead battery.
I loved this book! It is very well written and the characters are fully developed and relatable. This is the first book in the series that I have read, but I will definitely be adding the rest of the series to my TBR list.
Lydia Michaels has written an amazing book that had me both laughing and crying. I cried so much for Erin and her childhood. The damage from her abusive father ran deep and her mistrust of everyone was a massive hurdle for her to overcome. Giovanni was the jokester in his family, but after being forced to spend the night with Erin he realized that she wasn't the person everyone thought she was and he was determined to break down her walls.
This book is action-packed from page one and I was unable to put the book down. It is very intense and highly emotional so be prepared to have your Kleenex nearby. This is one of the best enemies to lovers stories I have read. Highly recommend! Looking forward to Erin's brother Harrison's story.
