The story of January and Enrique. He is her new driver, and things don't get off to the best of starts. Will they find out what the other person is really like?
A great read - hoping there are books for Enrique's siblings!

This book was a little bit hard for me. I enjoyed it on some levels and didn't on others. It was cute and I liked that the characters did seem to grow throughout the book. The innuendo was very heavy and the characters were quite immature at the beginning. It was just ok for me.

This book had me laughing so much my stomach was hurting! I loved how different the dynamics in the characters were. I also enjoyed the Spanish phrases inside although I did have to google a couple.
This enemies to lovers was so well written I'm going to snag a copy for my sister in law just so we can discuss it!

If there's one trope that always hits it's enemies-to-lovers; it's the jabbing insults that try to divert from the growing attraction. It's The Hate Zone.

This book was an enjoyable, quick read. I had no problems engaging with it. There was a lot of fun to be had!

That said, my engagement felt very surface level. At times I honestly wondered whether our leads were mid-teens rather than in their late 20s. Quite a lot of their dialogue felt more immature than clever banter.
I also did not care for how abruptly chapters would sometimes end.
The late game conflict was not very believable either. Or perhaps it was just resolved too quickly for me to really care about it.

Nonetheless-- I had fun reading, and I'm glad I did.

Thank you NetGalley and Sodasac Press for providing me an arc in exchange for an honest review.

Loved this one but I mean how can you not love a book that has rouge chickens in it. And an hate to love trope.

Thank you to Netgalley and Publishers for giving me this book in exchange for an honest review.

This book started out great. So the basic premise is we follow the POV of January who is a daughter of a big hotel owner. She is also somewhat famous and has the exact personality of someone who is born and raised in riches. Her previous driver retired so now she has a new driver named Enrique. From the first encounter, they both knew that they hated each other and then began the Hate Zone. My main problem was I hated the main female character. She is very spoiled and the way the dialogues are written are notsitting well with me. I hope to read more from the author in the near future but unfortunately would not be able to give justice to this book

.5/5 stars rating

Tropes:
Enemies to Lovers
One Bed
Slow Burn

Enrique Precio is barely starting out his limo company so imagine how excited he got, when he scores a BIG contract with hotel owner Mr. Madison only to realize that his job isn't going to be chauffeuring Mr. Madison but instead his daughter, the Spoiled Hotel Heiress January Madison.
They DO NOT get along from the start, she's too bratty for his taste and he infuriates her on a whole different level.
But after spending time together, their banter turns into lust, which then turns into like and then love.

This is definitely a SLOW BURN. I don't usually enjoy those books but this was way too cute to stop and I couldn't but it down.
I enjoyed the Precio family dynamic and I hope to get more glimpses of how January fits in over the next couple of books in the series.

Enrique is WRITTEN BY A WOMAN in the best freakin' way and I'm totally here for it.

January's spoiled behavior turned me off in the beginning but overtime, I grew to love her as well.

Steamy makeout sessions, crazy situations they end up in, & yelling in the Precio latino household, make this rom-com freakin shine!

Spoiled hotel heiress January Madison has a new limo driver. Enrico Precio thought his contract was for driving the bigwigs, not the paparazzi chased daughter. In a battle of wills that starts on page one, January and Enrico face hilarious circumstances, petty tricks, and family dinner.

This delightful book was tastefully written, but the intensive attraction couldn't be missed. It was refreshing to read about a leading man who knew how to treat a lady, and a book where love developed, not an explosion of graphic sex.

I loved the family scenes that were packed with realism. I loved watching the relationship grow between January and Enrico/Kinky/Mr. Hot Bod. Fun from start to finish, leaving the reader wanting more! Glad to report that more books in the series are planned...I can't wait to read them.

Thanks to NetGalley for allowing me to read and review this book. Opinions expressed are strictly my own.

I absolutely adored Enrique’s family and am excited for his brothers books!

My favorite things about the book:
- Enrique is such a good guy it killed me.
- The antics that happen between January and Enrique
- the epilogue as a whole was really great.

My least favorite things about the book:
- Felt like it zoomed past the end and all the conflicts that occurred. I would’ve loved to read as everything happened instead of getting told it in a quick summary.

Enemies to lovers you'll grow to love! Starting out I didn't love the characters but they grew on me and I really enjoyed this book!

Cute, quick weekend read. There's a great scene where January refers to Enrique as giving off Han Solo vibes and it hit me! He IS Han Solo is so many ways haha I loved it!
At first I was not a fan of January, or Enrique honestly. But as I continued reading I got really like them.... Okay, Enrique more than January, but still, they grew on me. :)
I'm definitely looking forward to the rest of the series.

Some fave bits:
-gelato
-chickens
-shiny sunglasses
-the opening line is just hilarious
-the dangerous hair dryer

Enemies -to-lovers.
Heiress and down-to-earth working man.
Throw in a small prank war, a boisterous extended family, and an unexpected one-bed situation, and you’ve got a great book! Fun dynamic between Enrique and January. Excited to read more Precio Brothers (and maybe sister) books in the future!
