Better Than the Movies (Better than the Movies, #1)

by Lynn Painter

“So you think that two enemies—in the real world—can magically get over their differences and fall madly in love?” “I do.” “And you think that plotting and planning and trickery is no big deal if it’s done to spark some sort of true love?” I chewed on my lip. Was that what I was doing? Trickery? The thought put a little twist in my stomach, but I ignored it. That wasn’t what was happening here. I said, “You’re making it sound ridiculous on purpose.” “Oh, no—it’s just ridiculous.” “You’re ridiculous.” I realized I was gritting my teeth, and I relaxed my jaw. Who cared what Wes thought about love, anyway? He got a little smirk going and said, “Have you thought about the fact that if your little love notions are valid, then Michael is actually not the guy for you?” Nope; he was the guy for me. Had to be. Still, I asked, “What do you mean?” “At this point, you and Michael aren’t mad at each other, so it’s doomed. Every rom-com has two people who can’t stand each other in the beginning but eventually bang it out.” “Gross.” “Seriously. You’ve Got Mail. The Ugly Truth. Um… When Harry Met Sally, 10 Things I Hate About You, Sweet Home Alabam—” “First of all, Sweet Home Alabama is a second-chance-at-love trope, asshat.” “Ooh—my bad.”
