Sparks fly when an occult expert and a disgraced archeologist become enemies-with-benefits in this steamy romance from "go-to author" Rosie Danan (The New York Times Book Review).
Riley Rhodes finally has the chance to turn her family’s knack for the supernatural into a legitimate business when she’s hired to break the curse on an infamous Scottish castle. Used to working alone in her alienating occupation, she's pleasantly surprised to meet a handsome stranger upon arrival—until he tries to get her fired.
Fresh off a professional scandal, Clark Edgeware can’t allow a self-proclaimed “curse breaker” to threaten his last chance for redemption. After he fails to get Riley kicked off his survey site, he vows to avoid her. Unfortunately for him, she vows to get even.
Riley expects the curse to do her dirty work by driving Clark away, but instead, they keep finding themselves in close proximity. Too close. Turns out, the only thing they do better than fight is fool around. If they’re not careful, by the end of all this, more than the castle will end up in ruins.

This was such a fun book! I loved how Riley and Clark interacted and how the setting of Scotland really played a role in the story. I liked watching Riley and Clark grow throughout the story and believed their story.
Super cute, really enjoyed it.
Tropes: enemies with benefits, enemies to lovers, forced proximity

Marking this as read, but I got to 57% and then just skipped to the last chapter and the epilogue.
I was enjoying this book until the angry sex scene. Violent/aggressive sex is not something I enjoy reading, even if it's consensual. I could have dealt with it if it wasn't immediately followed by Riley saying the meanest things she possibly could to Clark, and on purpose! Up until that point I had been mostly enjoying the premise, the setting, and even had sympathy for both characters and felt like their respective screw ups were mostly accidental/misguided and they could work past them. After that scene, though, I knew that nothing could convince me these characters belonged together. I had already figured out where the plot was going and how the curse was going to be broken, but I had no interest in reading about these two anymore.
