If You Hate Me

By: Helena Hunting

Narrated by: Connor Crais, CJ Bloom

A brand new standalone hate-to-love, brother's best friend hockey romance.

My new roommates are two pro hockey players.

First, my f-boy of an older brother, and second, his seriously hot best friend (who I seriously hate).

This was a last resort. No one should be sleeping on a futon that smells like Cheetos and man sweat. But here I am, trying to get my life together.

Tristan Stiles is the bane of my existence. He never wears a shirt. We can’t seem to stop fighting. He’s an arrogant playboy with a filthy reputation. Sure, I had a crush on him when I was fourteen but that was a long time ago. I know better than to trust him. I just need to survive long enough to find a new job and get a new place. And not accidentally let Tristan show me exactly how well-deserved his reputation is.

loved rix and tristan

firstly, i will never look at a cucumber the same way again. 😳

this book was hella steamy, dear lord rix and tristian were scorching. yeah in the beginning they hated each other, but it didn’t stop the sexual tension that was ever present and when they finally gave in, it was downright electric. aside from them being compatible in the bedroom, there was a deeper emotional connection they shared. they were exactly what the other needed, and the way that tristian opened up to rix and let her see his vulnerable side was immense, as was the trust they had in one another. they were amazing together and i couldn’t get enough of them.

if you hate me was a delicious forbidden, hate to love and hockey romance. i loved both the girl gang and the bro gang so much. i am itching for more of this series, especially the next book. i. am. ravenous.

B + Tristan ❤️

loved this - would’ve preferred a duet but the story was a perfect mix of sweet and smutty. loved how it sets up other characters for subsequent books in this series. i’m already invested to see where this series goes.

Holy Cucumber!

Brothers Best Friend. Hate to Lovers. Hockey Romance.

This story line focuses more on the MC, it was refreshing to see the author unpack certain triggers through a males perspective.

Sex scenes were extremely spicy! Be prepared for some jaw dropping scenes.

Wowsa

Spicy enemies to lovers for sure - narration great on both sides (and I am super picky) -hot got hot be sure your up for that kind of ride! Maybe only thing Bex could have put a hot more of a fight once on a while -gave a couple eye rolls bit overall A.

Great Story but Too Long

This is a great story with great characters and great narrators. I loved the relationship that the main characters had! However, it took 7 chapters to get to the first spicy scene, which felt like forever. The spicy scenes were terrific! My only problem was that I felt like this book was 3-4 hours too long.
