The first man I loved was his best friend.
My plan was to meet a boy, fall in love, and live happily ever after.
That ended when my boyfriend died and left me half of his business.
Now, his best friend and I are business partners.
There’s just one problem: We hate each other.
Jax and I have been rivals since childhood.
He wants me out of the business, but it’s all I have left.
The more time we spend together, the more we question if we were ever rivals at all.
Will my last love be his best friend?
Or will we destroy each other?
⭐️ 4.5 STARS ⭐️
I was so glad to get my hands on Only Rivals. I'm always in for a good enemies to lovers romance full of angst, but add the deep emotional moments too and I was in heaven during my read!
I was really intrigued about the brand new Only You Series which is a spinoff/crossover of the Blue Beech Series and Twisted Fox Series. I loved both worlds and to see them merge with a second generation was fantastic.
Amelia and Jax's relationship was addictive. Between all the push and pull, this couple was magnetic and kept hurting each others, but their unique and profound bond was undeniable. Jax was so grumpy and hurtful at times with Amelia, but when it truly mattered, his real feelings for the girl showed and he was caring and protective. I enjoyed seeing him bring some light back into Amelia's life. She was so down after the lost of her fiancé, but her constant bickering with Jax helped her feel again. This pair was fire together, but also shared some really poignant instants.
I enjoyed the little moments was got to see Silas and Maliki as dads. They weren't that much present in the book, but their scenes were lovely and impactful. The group of friends was interesting and a good introduction for the upcoming books in the series. I need more of these characters that's for sure!
