The forth installment in the Oxford series is an enemies-to-lovers story about ad executive Taylor Carr pitted against free-lance writer Nick Ballantine. If you remember, Nick was briefly featured in Someone like You as a possible competitor to Lincoln. From the moment he was featured in the previous book, I was hoping Nick would get his own story so I was extremely happy when I learned he would be one half of the relationship duo in this book. 
 I was equally happy at the direction Taylor and Nick's relationship took. I feel like the fact that they start out at odds with each other allowed the build up of their relationship to be very satisfying and happen with good pacing. It also amps the sexual tension up between them because despite the animosity, there is this undeniable attraction. 
 Lauren Layne really did well fleshing out Nick and Taylor's characters. Each of their backstories influence the way they both approach relationships. Taylor's experiences in her youth were heartbreaking and make her cautious, yet show her strength because she still makes her own path and forms her own beliefs about family and love despite being taught very differently. Conversely, Nick has always known that he wants a family, but a relationship from his past causes some deep cuts that effect him in ways he doesn't predict until he and Taylor finally start to get serious. 
 Seeing how far they come from the beginning of the book to the end was quite satisfying. So far, I think this is my favorite of this series. While Lauren Layne says in the Acknowledgements that there's a possibility this is the last one in the series, I really hope we get another book as there's a wonderful set-up of a potential next couple. 
 This is a great series, you don't necessarily have to read the others in the series to enjoy this, however, I think it only enhances the enjoyment of each book if you come into it knowing where everything came from / started.
