USA TODAY BESTSELLER!

Sparks fly when an occult expert and a disgraced archeologist become enemies-with-benefits in this steamy romance from "go-to author" Rosie Danan (The New York Times Book Review).

Riley Rhodes finally has the chance to turn her family’s knack for the supernatural into a legitimate business when she’s hired to break the curse on an infamous Scottish castle. Used to working alone in her alienating occupation, she's pleasantly surprised to meet a handsome stranger upon arrival—until he tries to get her fired.

Fresh off a professional scandal, Clark Edgeware can’t allow a self-proclaimed “curse breaker” to threaten his last chance for redemption. After he fails to get Riley kicked off his survey site, he vows to avoid her. Unfortunately for him, she vows to get even.

Riley expects the curse to do her dirty work by driving Clark away, but instead, they keep finding themselves in close proximity. Too close. Turns out, the only thing they do better than fight is fool around. If they’re not careful, by the end of all this, more than the castle will end up in ruins.

"Journey with narrators Saskia Maarleveld and Shane East to the Scottish Highlands in this enemies-with-benefits romance.... Maarleveld and East seamlessly deliver witty dialogue and build romantic tension. Maarleveld's fluid cadence captures Riley's passionate spirit, while East's charming British intonation highlights Clark's curious nature. Listeners will enjoy the story as the pair solve the mystery of the curse while unexpectedly finding love." (AudioFile)

"Rosie Danan’s Do Your Worst has that rarest of tropes: an enemies-to-lovers pairing that is perfectly, lusciously balanced...It would be simpler for Riley and Clark to stay enemies if it weren’t for Danan’s signature evocation of horniness—blended here with just a soupçon of pain kink, as a treat. The sexiness is more cutting than her previous two books, with a bright acid pop that brings out the richness."—New York Times Book Review

Adorable

This book is fast paced and fun. The main characters were loveable and real. I listened to this book in one sitting because it was just a fun listen. I will be checking out more of her things.

Cute story. Great narration!

The story was cute and entertaining. The narrators were great and really made the story for me, especially Shane East. Although to be fair, I think I could listen to him read a telephone directory. 🤤

fresh new subject

Equal amounts charm, story and kink

See above. Also, the narration was fabulous - both performers. It was a delightful listen. Recommend.

Banter, Healing, and Spice

What more could you ask for? Great Narration! These two hurt people hurt each other but come to help heal each other in the end. MMC is such a nerdy heart throb and it's a nice change of pace for me to see the FMC being the one who makes just as many hurtful mistakes. It just made for a more even feel between the two.
