Blindsided by Becca Steele
4.0
Becca Steele’s enemies to lovers will forever have me by the throat.
she just brings the intensity, the jealousy, the angst every time. and this book was no different. i was grinning like a lunatic from the get go. it was just a fun, indulgent read.

Noah is starting university in London and moves into a shared house with a bunch of football players (soccer for the Americans out there... *shudders at the word soccer*), and one of them is Liam... Liam being the guy who’s car that Noah crashed into earlier that day. so, it’s easy to say that there’s a lot of heat and animosity from the very beginning.
and i ate that shit up.
there was a lot of back and forth here, but fortunately it wasn’t exhausting (most of the time). it was full of angst and tension, and it aligned with the characters entirely. i actually craved the push and pull bcos i love how Becca Steele executes that tension. sometimes with her books, i want her to drag out the intense enemies dynamic even more bcos it’s always my favourite part. that did occur here, but it’s probably a personal thing and me being selfish bcos i just love the angst between the enemies she writes.
truly, whenever they were all angsty enemies, i turned feral. when they were nice to each other i was like “no go back to being mean
