There??s a new sheriff in town? And he??s her worst nightmare.Reason #1: Ben Crawford is Olivia Knight??s long-time arch rival. They??ve been sworn enemies ever since she wore overalls to school one day, and he asked her in homeroom where she parked her cow. Now that he??s back, it doesn??t appear much has changed. He??s still arrogant. He??s still trouble. And this time, he??s got a badge and handcuffs. Which will make murdering him and disposing of his body much more challenging for her.Reason #2: Sheriff Ben has done a lot of growing up during his time away from Shell Grove. He went and got himself some muscles and tattoos, and has the nerve to wear that sheriff??s uniform absurdly well. For some reason, that??s all she can seem to focus on whenever they cross paths. All the nice changes he??s made, instead of how vehemently she??s vowed to hate his guts for all eternity.Reason #3: The complicated connection that has forever entwined their lives doesn??t have a pleasant backstory. As adults, they should be able to forget what happened when they were teenagers and move on. But in a small town where everyone has long memories, there are reminders everywhere of the nasty events that destroyed both of their families years ago. And she??s not sure their growing feelings for each other are enough to forgive the sins of the past and carve out a future?together.Ben has a secret. A big one. The longer he??s in Shell Grove and surrounded by people who know his sordid history, the more likely that secret is going to come out. But if it does, Olivia will never speak to him again. Which will not do. Because he??s finally realized that Olivia is the reason why he came back to town in the first place. And if he doesn??t want to lose her forever, he needs to correct the mistakes he made a long time ago and pr… (plus d'informations)

If I reconnected with my nemesis in the way that Olivia did with Ben, you would never hear from me again.

I’m a sucker for witty female characters so the minute Olivia was introduced, I fell in love with her.

I don’t know what it is about enemies to lovers that I can’t seem to shake. There’s just something about falling in love with someone that you used to want to put their hand into a blender.

As if she were the only thing standing between him and mental destruction.
She was his asylum.”


If anyone ever said this about me I would marry them on the spot, I’m not even kidding.

The actions of the main protagonists of the story were heavily influenced by the past trauma of what happened all those years ago. I loved that both Olivia and Ben’s main arc of their characters was their desire to break out of their old patterns or pasts.

I would’ve rated this story higher but I couldn’t due to me wanting the resolve of the issues that had been the main part of the story to be dragged out a bit further. I love angst and I just would’ve enjoyed if it had carried on for a few more chapters than it was.

Overall, this story was enjoyable and I’m excited to see what comes next in the Shell Grove series.

Thank you to Melanie Munton for providing me this arc!
I received an advance review copy for free, and I am leaving this review voluntarily. ( )
