Dating My Sworn Enemy by Summer Brooks

The characters in DATING MY SWORN ENEMY were all familiar to me but as is usually the case, when a couple gets their own book their personalities are not exactly as imagined when they were first introduced.

This is very true for Cody.  We didn’t get to know much about him, but what we knew we didn’t like.  He was that insulting arrogant jerk friend of the group and his last encounter with Serena and Michael, the father of Serena’s son, was contemptuous.

Cody seemed to have an epiphany when his behavior resulted in Serena getting “custody” of the friends, and Cody being left on his own.  What I like about this book is that even at 40, Cody realized he needed to “grow up” and also realized being with a different woman every night was less satisfying than it used to be.

How Cody and Serena get back together at first you will find clever.  That first touch has the electricity that tells you where this is going.  Cody’s hot side and his romantic side are both swoon worthy. Serena’s son is entertaining as a 15 year old.  You’ll have to read the book to find out why Serena has to summons his father while she’s cleaning their son’s filthy room.
