There was a gift, she realized, that could only be exchanged between former enemies- permission to forgive yourself. Because if someone could see all your failures and faults, could actively seek out every possible reason to dislike you and somehow still come around in the end, well, maybe your worst wasn\u2019t so bad at all. The next morning, Riley and Clark woke up to find that for the first time in three hundred years, indigo angel\u2019s trumpet had bloomed on the grounds of Arden Castle.\u201d<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote><p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>Riley Rhodes<\/strong> is attempting to turn her family\u2019s talent for curse-breaking into a certified career, and when she has a once-in-a-lifetime chance to break a long-standing curse on Arden Castle, she must take it. In Scotland, she finds a beautiful castle full of history and magic, but those aren\u2019t the only things Riley discovers. She also finds pessimistic non-believer <strong>Clarke Edgeware<\/strong>, a down-on-his-luck archeologist who attempts to get Riley fired on her first day. They are sworn enemies, both taunting and tempting each other to do their worst, but neither can deny the desire sizzling between them.<\/p><p style=\"text-align: justify;\">After I read <strong>The Intimacy Experiment<\/strong> by <strong>Rosie Danan<\/strong>, I became a big fan of hers. Did I enjoy this one as much as that one? No. I didn\u2019t hate it, though. I thought the plot was interesting and fun. I loved watching Riley and Clarke battle, both trying to one-up the other. The chemistry between them was scorching hot! Riley brought out the best in Clarke, got him to stand up to his dad, and made him see that he was worthy even with his mistakes. The curse used Riley and Clarke as conduits for the fated love that created the curse. In the end, their love breaks the curse on Arden Castle, and they join forces to become a curse-breaking team.\u00a0 Overall, a super fun and enjoyable read. I would recommend this one if you want something unique and different.<\/p><p style=\"text-align: justify;\">If you\u2019re a fan of authors like Pippa Grant or Penny Reid, then I think you would enjoy this one!<\/p><p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><em>~ Michelle<\/em><\/p>    <\/div>\n<\/div>\n<!-- \/module text --><!-- module text -->\n<div  class=\"module module-text tb_dmr9643 customBorderRad repeat \" data-lazy=\"1\">\n        <div  class=\"tb_text_wrap\">\n    <p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong><span class=\"s1\"><a href=\"https:\/\/amzn.to\/3MYlUly\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Amazon<\/a><\/span><span class=\"s2\">\u00a0|\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/apple.co\/49RAkOi\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span class=\"s3\">iBooks<\/span><\/a>\u00a0|\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.barnesandnoble.com\/w\/do-your-worst-rosie-danan\/1143072783?ean=9780593437155\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span class=\"s3\">B&amp;N<\/span><\/a>\u00a0|\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.kobo.com\/us\/en\/ebook\/do-your-worst-1\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span class=\"s3\">Kobo<\/span><\/a>\u00a0|\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/play.google.com\/store\/books\/details\/Rosie_Danan_Do_Your_Worst?id=H-WtEAAAQBAJ\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span class=\"s3\">Google Play<\/span><\/a><\/span><\/strong><\/p>    <\/div>\n<\/div>\n<!-- \/module text -->                    <\/div>\n                            <\/div>\n            \t    <\/div>\n\t    <!-- \/row_inner -->\n\t<\/div>\n\t<!-- \/module_row -->\n\t<\/div>\n<!--\/themify_builder_content-->","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Riley Rhodes finally has the chance to turn her family\u2019s knack for the supernatural into a legitimate business when she\u2019s hired to break the curse [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":30716,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"nf_dc_page":"","om_disable_all_campaigns":false,"pagelayer_contact_templates":[],"_pagelayer_content":"","_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[83,122,128,48],"tags":[148,216,386],"class_list":["post-30715","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-berkley","category-michelle","category-penguin-group","category-reviews","tag-3-5-stars","tag-contemporary","tag-paranormal-romance"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.4 -

Used to working alone in her alienating occupation, she's pleasantly surprised to meet a handsome stranger upon arrival\u2014until he tries to get her fired.<br \/><br \/>Fresh off a professional scandal, Clark Edgeware can\u2019t allow a self-proclaimed \u201ccurse breaker\u201d 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.<br \/><br \/>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\u2019re not careful, by the end of all this, more than the castle will end up in ruins.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/smittenbybooks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/06\/3_5-hearts-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"146\" height=\"44\" \/><\/p><hr \/><p><strong>Release Date:<\/strong> Nov 14, 2023<br \/><strong>Heat Level:<\/strong> Hot\/Scorcher<br \/><strong>Publisher:<\/strong>\u00a0Penguin Group<br \/><strong>Imprint:<\/strong>\u00a0Berkley<br \/><strong>Price:<\/strong> $10.99<\/p><hr \/><blockquote><p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><em>\u201cAs it turned out, sometimes what you needed was someone who brought out the worst in you. There was a gift, she realized, that could only be exchanged between former enemies- permission to forgive yourself. Because if someone could see all your failures and faults, could actively seek out every possible reason to dislike you and somehow still come around in the end, well, maybe your worst wasn\u2019t so bad at all. The next morning, Riley and Clark woke up to find that for the first time in three hundred years, indigo angel\u2019s trumpet had bloomed on the grounds of Arden Castle.\u201d<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote><p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>Riley Rhodes<\/strong> is attempting to turn her family\u2019s talent for curse-breaking into a certified career, and when she has a once-in-a-lifetime chance to break a long-standing curse on Arden Castle, she must take it. In Scotland, she finds a beautiful castle full of history and magic, but those aren\u2019t the only things Riley discovers. She also finds pessimistic non-believer <strong>Clarke Edgeware<\/strong>, a down-on-his-luck archeologist who attempts to get Riley fired on her first day. They are sworn enemies, both taunting and tempting each other to do their worst, but neither can deny the desire sizzling between them.<\/p><p style=\"text-align: justify;\">After I read <strong>The Intimacy Experiment<\/strong> by <strong>Rosie Danan<\/strong>, I became a big fan of hers. Did I enjoy this one as much as that one? No. I didn\u2019t hate it, though. I thought the plot was interesting and fun. I loved watching Riley and Clarke battle, both trying to one-up the other. The chemistry between them was scorching hot! Riley brought out the best in Clarke, got him to stand up to his dad, and made him see that he was worthy even with his mistakes. The curse used Riley and Clarke as conduits for the fated love that created the curse. In the end, their love breaks the curse on Arden Castle, and they join forces to become a curse-breaking team.\u00a0 Overall, a super fun and enjoyable read. I would recommend this one if you want something unique and different.<\/p><p style=\"text-align: justify;\">If you\u2019re a fan of authors like Pippa Grant or Penny Reid, then I think you would enjoy this one!<\/p><p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><em>~ Michelle<\/em><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/amzn.to\/3MYlUly\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Amazon<\/a>\u00a0|\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/apple.co\/49RAkOi\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">iBooks<\/a>\u00a0|\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.barnesandnoble.com\/w\/do-your-worst-rosie-danan\/1143072783?ean=9780593437155\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">B&amp;N<\/a>\u00a0|\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.kobo.com\/us\/en\/ebook\/do-your-worst-1\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Kobo<\/a>\u00a0|\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/play.google.com\/store\/books\/details\/Rosie_Danan_Do_Your_Worst?id=H-WtEAAAQBAJ\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Google Play<\/a><\/strong><\/p>","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/smittenbybooks.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/30715","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/smittenbybooks.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/smittenbybooks.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/smittenbybooks.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/smittenbybooks.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=30715"}],"version-history":[{"count":7,"href":"https:\/\/smittenbybooks.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/30715\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":30729,"href":"https:\/\/smittenbybooks.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/30715\/revisions\/30729"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/smittenbybooks.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/30716"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/smittenbybooks.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=30715"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/smittenbybooks.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=30715"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/smittenbybooks.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=30715"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
