Anything You Can Do

by R.S. Grey

"Lucas Thatcher has always been my enemy. It's been a decade since I've seen him, but our years on opposite coasts were less of a lasting peace and more of a temporary cease-fire. Now that we're both back in our small town, I know Lucas expects the same old war, but I've changed since high school--and from the looks of it, so has he. The arrogant boy who was my teenage rival is now a chiseled doctor armed with intimidating good looks. He is Lucas Thatcher 2.0, the new and improved version I'll be competing with in the workplace instead of the schoolyard. I'm not worried; I'm a doctor now too, board-certified and sexy in a white coat. It almost feels like winning will be too easy--until Lucas unveils a tactic neither of us has ever used before: sexual warfare. The day he pushes me up against the wall and presses his lips to mine, I can't help but wonder if he's filling me with passion or poison. Every fleeting touch is perfect torture. With every stolen kiss, my walls crumble a little more. After all this time, Lucas knows exactly how to strip me of my defenses, but I'm in no hurry to surrender. Knowing thy enemy has never felt so good"--Back cover.

Daisy and Lucas both return to their hometown of Hamilton after an 11 year absence to assume positions at the local medical practice. Daisy believes she is there to take over the practice, but Lucas has other plans.

This was exactly what I needed to get out of my sad-book-hangover! This rom-com featuring enemies to lovers hit the spot. It made me laugh, smile, grin, swoon - it made me happy.

This one was fun, because the MCs, Daisy and Lucas, have a ton of history. The story is peppered with their memories, and there were some really adorable peeks into their pasts. Anything You Can Do is mostly told from Daisy's POV. At first, I was a little worried, because I always want to get into both the hero's and the heroine's heads, but then these email drafts starting turning up. Lucas wrote emails to Daisy, which were so honest and beautiful, but he never sent them. These revealed Lucas' inner thoughts, and it just made the story that much better.

I am a fan of Grey's, and knew I could rely on her for a fun and sexy read with great characters and witty banter. It's everything I want in a rom-com, and maybe even a little bit more. I think what such a hit for me was Lucas and his big, beautiful heart. My eyes got all shiny every time he reflected on his feelings for Daisy. I don't know if Grey could have made him any swoonier.

I am not going to quote, or go into anymore detail, because I want you to experience every thing for the first time if you choose to read this book.

If you like frenemy love stories of the rom-com variety featuring clever dialog, a sassy heroine, and a hero that will melt the pants off you, then I suggest you read this book.
