Enemies With Benefits: An Enemies-to-Lovers Romance (Loveless Brothers) Audible Audiobook – Unabridged

4.2 out of 5 stars 22,107 ratings

I don’t love him. I don’t even like him.I just want him.

Eli Loveless was my nemesis from the first day of kindergarten until we graduated high school. Everything I did, he had to do better—and vice versa. The day he left town was the best day of my life.

Ten years later, the day he came back was the worst.

Now he’s my co-worker.

Grown-up Eli Loveless is sexy as sin. He’s hotter than asphalt in the summer. The irritating kid I once knew is gone, and he’s been replaced by a man with green eyes, perfect abs, and a cocky smile.

It’s bad that I want him.

It’s worse that he wants me back.

There are looks. There are smirks. There are smiles that make my panties burst into flame.

And then there’s a shared kiss that leads to the hottest night of my life.

This is no office romance. This is a five-alarm fire.

What’s a girl to do when the man I can’t stand is the one I can’t stop lusting after?

Enter into a friends-with-benefits agreement, of course.

No dates. No relationship. Just blisteringly hot sex, because if there’s one person I could never fall for, it’s Eli....right?

    “I want to reach out and touch her. I want to feel the curve of her cheekbone under my fingers, let her warmth infuse my skin. I want to see if she smells like home, like pine and dirt and rocks, or whether she smells new and wholly different.”

    I’m surprised by how much I absolutely loved this book—it’s easily one of my favorite reads of 2024! The banter between Eli and Violet was nothing short of spicy, keeping me grinning and laughing out loud from start to finish. The chemistry between the characters was electric, and their development felt so real and satisfying.

    While I wish there had been a longer, deeper conversation to resolve the third-act heartbreak, it didn’t take away from the overall sweetness of the story. The pacing, humor, and emotional depth were spot on, and the ending left me feeling warm and fuzzy.

    If you’re a fan of sharp wit, sizzling romance, and perfectly executed enemies-to-lovers vibes, this book is for you. It’s a solid 4.5/5 for me, and I can’t recommend it enough!

    This was such a fun contemporary romance with the enemies to lovers trope. Violet is a perfectionist who has to win/succeed at everything. Eli has been her competition all through their school career. They did not get along and spent their time competing to be the best and exchanging insults. 10 years later they both end up back in town and despite their glow-ups, they are still at each other’s throats. I love the dual POV of this book because we get to see what each one is thinking about the other. It is super cute and there is some character growth for both MMCs. They try to fight their chemistry even though they cannot deny the pull to each other. Sweet, funny, spicy and a HEA!

    “You’re pretty when you’re mad, and I always did like pissing you off.”

    Eli and Violet have been at each other's throats since kindergarten. Now as adults, when they run into each other again they pick up right where they left off, hating each other. But there’s something else there now, a spark. One that neither of them can ignore.

    I absolutely loved this book with every fiber of my being. It was so cute and happy that I did not want to put it down. It takes place is a small town that has a huge lodge used primarily as a wedding venue during the summer. Since both characters work here, the wedding setting is one of the main parts of the book. This leads to so absolutely hilarious and eventually spicy situations for the two main characters.

    I loved the dynamics of friendship and family throughout the book, the Loveless brothers are all amazing and I can not wait to get more from them in later books. Each one seems like they will have a super fun story!

    It is definitely a spicy book with lots of open-door scenes but it never gets too crazy in terms of what they do. It stays very vanilla while still fun and steamy. It’s realistic and cute! Definitely a rom-com vibe!

    I really enjoyed this one and am eager to explore the rest of the series!

    I really enjoyed this book! I love the childhood rivals and there competition with each other. Eli is an adventurous guy who lost his way and needed to come home. Violet who has never left and wished she could but held back. I really enjoyed there enemies aspect and there dynamic with figuring out what they can do if they liked each other and showed each other some respect. It was a great book over all!

    4.0 out of 5 stars Spicy enemies to lovers
    Reviewed in Australia on October 2, 2023
    Great chemistry between the MCs from the beginning. Good pacing and a fun cast of side characters.
    Returning to his small, home town after half a lifetime away, Eli Loveless comes face to face with his childhood nemesis, Violet Tulane. Forced to work alongside one another, both Eli and Violet are determined to curb their competitive natures- in another direction- for the chance to win twenty grand as most valuable employee. Along the way, the tension between them simmers into a romantic situationship, as the kids say, until things become a little more complicated than just physical gratification.
    Loved this for a quick, punchy read. Good fun!

    Wow, this book surpassed all my expectations! It's funny, and scorching, and sad, and romantic. The characters have so much chemistry! Best spicy scenes I've read in a long time, with so much heat, so much passion, but so real nonetheless. And the angst... so beautiful it hurts. I'll read it, and reread it over and over again.
