Meet Pepper, swim team captain, chronic overachiever, and all-around perfectionist. Her family may be falling apart, but their massive fast-food chain is booming — mainly thanks to Pepper, who is barely managing to juggle real life while secretly running Big League Burger’s massive Twitter account.
Enter Jack, class clown and constant thorn in Pepper’s side. When he isn’t trying to duck out of his obscenely popular twin’s shadow, he’s busy working in his family’s deli. His relationship with the business that holds his future might be love/hate, but when Big League Burger steals his grandma’s iconic grilled cheese recipe, he’ll do whatever it takes to take them down, one tweet at a time.
All’s fair in love and cheese — that is, until Pepper and Jack’s spat turns into a viral Twitter war. Little do they know, while they’re publicly duking it out with snarky memes and retweet battles, they’re also falling for each other in real life — on an anonymous chat app Jack built.
As their relationship deepens and their online shenanigans escalate — people on the internet are shipping them?? — their battle gets more and more personal, until even these two rivals can’t ignore they were destined for the most unexpected, awkward, all-the-feels romance that neither of them expected.

This one is a little complicated.
Pages 1-200: ⭐️⭐️⭐️
Pages 200-358: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ (MAYBE add .5 for the last 50 pages)
I have to admit, it took me awhile to get into this. The premise was very CHEESY (pun time! Woo!), as it was basically, for the first 200 or so pages, just a twitter war between a deli and a corporate sandwich/burger joint, all over one allegedly stealing the other’s grilled cheese recipe. That and just regular ol’ high school life & bein’ a teen. Just surface level stuff. BO-RING. Still pretty cute though, Pepper and Jack relationship evolution. It just wasn’t... enough though! Again, this whole thing until the last 50, give or take, pages .
Overall, cute ending. But mostly just... meh+. It was just okay, then cute. It didn’t really make me feel anything. I felt like the romance took a back seat to everything else.
On a related note: It totally messed up my schedule to read 15 books this month... now i only have tonight and tomorrow to read my last one! I better pick a good one that’s so captivating that I can’t stop reading! haha. Wish me luck!
