What book made you fall in love with the enemies-to-lovers trope?

I've literally said this so many times, but Powerless is NOT "enemies to lovers"

It's "She thinks they're enemies but he knows their lovers"

The things we leave unfinished - Rebecca Yarros

soo good

As someone who thrives on creative problem-solving, I'd naturally be drawn to the shifting dynamic here — who’s got the upper hand? Who softens first? Who admits it? It’s psychological and a bit like watching a chess match that turns into foreplay. Also when that emotional (and physical) tension finally breaks? You feel it in your soul. It’s catharsis — art-style. Like finally pulling back from a painting you’ve been labouring over for hours and realising, “Oh. That’s it. That’s what it was all leading to.”

Everyone is giving recs but I read that as a conversation starter so here are my thoughts. 💛 buuuuut also here's my enemies/rivals to lovers bookshelf: https://www.goodreads.com/review/list...
