Publisher Description
One hides behind a title. The other behind a lie. But temptation always finds you, no matter where you hide.
He’s protective, composed—and hiding a dangerous secret.
Felix Jennings, the Earl of Bentley, has spent his life guarding his family's safety—and his preference for men. Now, he’s stuck with the man of his dreams for an entire week, and it’s threatening to shatter every last shred of his carefully cultivated control. Not even playing the part of unbearable arse can mask his attraction, especially when Felix swears he sees desire in the heated glares Thorne throws his way. But if he’s wrong, it’s his family’s livelihood and his life on the line.
He’s cavalier, sarcastic—and he’s hiding a dark past.
Samuel Thorne, valet and best friend to the Duke of Devonford, despises aristocrats—pompous, self-absorbed scum, the lot of them. And the maddeningly handsome Earl of Bentley is no exception. Sam was forced to valet for him once before and that brief stint was more than enough. Now, his best friend has dropped a bombshell: he’ll be serving Bentley for an entire week. It’s shaping up to be pure torture—one where Sam isn’t sure if he’ll end up kissing the man or killing him.
It’s a volatile affair, where love and hate blur into one.
And just when they each start seeing with more clarity, Sam’s past comes back to threaten everything.

So emotional!!
This story will break you to pieces and mend you back together with a tender and gentle hand. The level of angst and anguish was really unlike anything I’ve ever read. Maybe it’s the subject matter, the hurdles that must be overcome or maybe it’s just the skillful hand writing it. Whatever it was, it is pure genius! I don’t think I have ever been so moved by a story. Enemies to lovers is my favorite trope because I thrive on the angst and the banter, and that delicious burn when things seem utterly impossible. I expected that in this story, what I did not expect was the level of depth and emotion that would be wrung out of it. Just when you think things can’t get any more intense, Lizzie Koz steps it up a notch. While we’re talking about stepping it up, she definitely turned up the heat! These two are HOT, be forewarned. Reading in the hot tub, the water wasn’t the only thing steaming things up, let me tell you. I have loved every single member of the Jennings family and Felix was bound to be good, but he surpassed my every expectation. These two are angsty, full of banter but utterly sweet and devoted at the core. Simply two misunderstood individuals with tremendous heart searching for a place to belong in a cruel world. Once they are able to look past their own judgements, they blissfully find that place in each other’s embrace. Somehow their love seems the most potent of all and I am a better person for having read their story.
