What city/town or country is this set in? I'm 20% in and the author hasn't mentioned anything about the locale. What am I missing?....I'm about ready to DNF because of it.

The comedic timing of the writing and the couples chemistry/banter reminded me of one of my other favorites, Can You Keep a Secret? by Sophie Kinsella.

Susan Elizabeth Phillips (who wrote Kiss An Angel suggested below) is also a hilarious contemporary romance author. My favorite of hers (and the first I ever read of hers) is probably Match Me if You Can. It's part of a series, but you don't have to start at the beginning. (less)

It has the same fun and steamy vibe and enemies-to-lovers trope. I also recommend The Kiss Quotient and Fix Her Up. See my "25 Books Like The Hating Game" blog post at marichevy.com/books-like-the-hating-game for more suggestions. Hope it helps!(less)

Everyone can judge themselves what that is...16? 18? 35…moreIt's graphic, so I'd say that it's appropriate for age ranges ready for graphic steamy scenes. Everyone can judge themselves what that is...16? 18? 35 as my father would prefer? ;) (less)
