Cruel Desire

I am one for any and all enemies to lovers stories! I couldn't put this book down and read straight through. Both English & Court were slightly explosive. English is a smart, no-nonsense and stubborn firecracker. Court is an entitled playboy that turns out to be a gentleman with a huge heart. Something English never expected. They both have their hearts broken and find themselves in a complicated situation. The twists and turns will tug at your heart. Who knew that Court might be exactly what English needs. There are moments where the Crew will pop up and add a little fun and excitement for these two. I was not expecting to fall in love with these characters so quickly.
I cannot wait for the next book. The one I have been waiting for. Katherine & Camden!

4 stars for - Hating Season - the second book in the Seasons series by K.A. Linde. This book can be read as a complete standalone with almost zero spoilers from the other books involving previous characters so feel free to dive right in. We are back in New York where the uber rich and privileged live and play.
Anna English is only working in New York temporarily for her “problem child” client and will be heading back home to California as soon as the elections are over in November. She loves her life - working for a top PR firm and married to one of Hollywood’s leading actors until a trip to see him onset changes everything. English has tough decisions to make in regards to her marriage and heads back to New York to deal with the other man in her life that seems to keep her up at nights too.
Court Kennsington never cared what anyone thought about him so he never corrected their assumptions when it came to his playboy ways. Spending the last six months working with English made him hope she saw him differently than all the other people in his life but it’s not looking too good. He feels things for her he’s never felt before but they are just a rebound thing...right?
This was a sexy, sweet and scorching hot romance with the perfect amount of angst thrown in too. I devoured this book in one sitting is was such an easy read. I am absolutely loving the little bits being dropped here and there about Katherine and Camden too. Can’t wait to read all about those two next!

5-stars isn’t enough for The Hating Season.

We’ve got to know Court as the spoiled, rich, Upper East Side playboy. He doesn’t give any thoughts to the women he sleeps with, the alcohol he drinks, or what people think about him.

Now, let’s throw in a PR agent that is supposed keep him out of trouble, out of the spotlight, and to help him put on a good front for his mothers re-election campaign.

Enter, English, Court Kensington’s worst nightmare or so he thinks. English is here for one thing and only one thing, but she gets way more than she bargained for with Court. Before long they are butting heads, fighting, and.......

Love, Love, the real Court that we get to know and how English handles him.
