The Takeover
The Takeover: A Novel | Cara Tanamachi
4 posts | 3 read | 2 to read
Sometimes, when you ask the universe for your soulmate, you wind up with your hate mate instead. On Nami's 30th birthday, shes reminded at every turn that her life isnt what she planned. Shes always excelled at everything until now. Her fianc blew up their engagement. Her pride and joy, the tech company she helped to found, is about to lose funding. And her sister, Sora, is getting married to the man of her dreams, Jack, and instead of being happy for her, as she knows she ought to be, shes fighting off jealousy. Frustrated with her life, she makes a wish on a birthday candle to find her soulmate. Instead, the universe delivers her hate mate, Namis old high school nemesis, Jae Lee, the most popular kid from high school, who also narrowly beat her out for valedictorian. More than a decade later, Jae is still as effortlessly cool, charming, and stylish as ever, and, to make matters worse, is planning a hostile take-over of her start-up. Cue: sharp elbows and even sharper banter as the two go head-to-head to see wholl win this time. But when their rivalry ignites a different kind of passion, Nami starts to realize that it's not just her company that's in danger of being taken over, but her heart as well. "Readers will cheer on this pair of sparring hearts." - Publishers Weekly (Starred Review)

Sure you know exactly how everything is going to play out from the very first page but that‘s okay because the pace is good, the banter snappy, & the story—former high school nemeses meet in an enemies to lovers story centered around the takeover of a tech company in Chicago—entertaining. I laughed out loud more than once and enjoyed this one.

If you liked Love Interest by C. Gilmore, then this needs to be on your tbr! Nami & Jae are high school rivals who reunite when Jae‘s company Rainforest (read: Amazon) looks to acquire Toggle, Nami‘s tech startup that is struggling. Jae represents big corporation & everything Nami doesn‘t want for her family-like business, & while she‘s determined to stop her partners from selling, she can‘t help reengaging with Jae. ⬇️⬇️⬇️

Kristy_K Enemies-to-lovers is probably my favorite romance trope and this one is great. Both Nami and Jae toe the line of insults and flirting and they soon fall for each other. Nami was a strong, intelligent, woman with great convictions. Jae was a confident, smart man who had a humorous side that made me laugh. Together their chemistry was so fun to read. 12mo
