Nemesis (n.) 1) An opponent or rival whom a person cannot best or overcome.

2) A person’s undoing

3) Joshua Templeman

Lucy Hutton has always been certain that the nice girl can get the corner office. She’s charming and accommodating and prides herself on being loved by everyone at Bexley & Gamin. Everyone except for coldly efficient, impeccably attired, physically intimidating Joshua Templeman. And the feeling is mutual.

Trapped in a shared office together 40 (OK, 50 or 60) hours a week, they’ve become entrenched in an addictive, ridiculous never-ending game of one-upmanship. There’s the Staring Game. The Mirror Game. The HR Game. Lucy can’t let Joshua beat her at anything—especially when a huge new promotion goes up for the taking.

If Lucy wins this game, she’ll be Joshua’s boss. If she loses, she’ll resign. So why is she suddenly having steamy dreams about Joshua, and dressing for work like she’s got a hot date? After a perfectly innocent elevator ride ends with an earth-shattering kiss, Lucy starts to wonder whether she’s got Joshua Templeman all wrong.

Maybe Lucy Hutton doesn’t hate Joshua Templeman. And maybe, he doesn’t hate her either. Or maybe this is just another game.

用户评论
经验有限,没get到这一部
DNF, lack of plot and storyline - bored halfway through
毫无逻辑的羞耻play我却看的津津有味 就是后半总体没前半引人入胜是因为sex scene莫名诡异么 全书高光时刻大概是女主为男主猛呛他爹 燃!
Just as what Josh’s mom said, Patrick’s an open book. Josh is a safety-deposit box. But he’s worth it!♥️
前半部分暧昧指数五颗星!
前半部分或者说前2/3部分写得还不错,男女双方互看不顺眼和暧昧拉扯这两个阶段还是挺有意思也挺带感的。然而读着读着故事变得不再那么具有吸引力,最后的ending也索然无味,马马虎虎给个三星吧。
前半部分还不错,x张力拉满。从hate到love的transition也挺合理。后半本书,过多的身体描写像是在凑字数了,有点啰嗦。整体情节很简单,没什么让人惊喜的地方。就是轻松愉快的爱情小说吧
阅读轻松,母语非英语人士友好。文笔有点像美妆博主Hannah Louise Poston,没什么内容但自命不凡(不是唐娜塔特那种刻意自命不凡)
audiobook 女主的声音好好听
