 It’s not an actual enemies to lovers: she likes him from the beginning. 

 Then I skipped toward the end and found this dialogue (adapted because I don’t remember it exactly): 
 <quote>- Well, I know something [that girl you don’t like] doesn’t have. 
 - Oh, what’s that? 
 - (sexily) Me.</quote> 

 Ew, no David.

 Nothing wrong with the book, I just DNF’ed cause I was on holiday and couldn’t read everything. Will probably pick it up again in the future.

This book lacked the action I read these types of books for, but it was still riveting enough that I finished it even though I was on holiday and I had to prioritise the books I wanted to read.

I really needed this book, I think. A lot of the issues Adrian Plass discusses really speak to me.
