Critics Review

I absolutely loved this second chance, enemies-to-lovers love story. Academic rivals Evie and Nic’s hunt for medieval treasure through the spellbinding city of Oxford had me hooked from the first page, and Vendrell crafts their romance with wit, intelligence and empathy. Sizzling, warm-hearted and nuanced, it’s the perfect romantic read – Sophie Loxton
