Although one could sence what was going to happen at the end the love ping-pong om the way there was very entertaining. Rhe story also had a satisfactory endung to bring this funny love story home. Kudos!
Perfect. Curled up on the sofa with a nice sexy romance, waiting for hubby to return. 5*
Great story of opposites attract. Enjoyed the dialog as well as her very quirky sense of humor, love it. Thank you for sharing.

Despite the strong finish, I just couldn't bridge the gap between them for most of the story. Maybe a hint early on that their bitterness between each other was actually due to an underlying sexual tension? 4*
Good story, thank you. The sparring between them was pretty realistic. The gradual change between them might have been a bit sudden; it could have done with some more hints that things were changing. Of course, we knew how it would end and you brought it home nicely. Enjoyable. Well done.
Really enjoyed this story but the transition between the two happened to easily / quickly?
Good story if a bit unlikely.
What is the difference between a two-piece and a bikini?
Not what I was looking for, but exactly what I needed at the moment. Due to pain meds knocking me out, I had to read this in several sittings which allowed me to savor the story. Was it telegraphed? Yeah, but the quality of the story and the journey it took more than made up for knowing, “yep, those two will be together”. Well written, well paced, and truly enjoyed.
I don't think this was up to your usual standards. I figured before I was halfway through the first page that she was going to get together with Bo. Sharing a suite, interactions at the conference--all just too predictable.
Did not care for Bo's attitude throughout the story, and the "no room" trope is crap.
A very entertaining tale. It is obvious you have spent time on HHI, knowing the traffic issues and Coligny Plaza. We prefer The Salty Dog and Black Marlin. 5*
was this generated by a bot? ZERO believably, or interest. Cmdr. Data from Star Trek TNG could write a more interesting story.
Happy ending fun story, but it seemed to telegraph right from the 2nd paragraph with very little tension enroute to the all too predictable ending. The device of the missing hotel room was, in my opinion, a mistake. It has been so overused that as a prop it has lost all its lustre and gave away any hope of building some real tension and plot twists into the story. The fact that you did wait until the final day to bring your couple together sexually was a relief, but it seemed throughout the story that she had magically flipped a switch from detesting Bo to not so subtly reeling him in. Where was the eureka moment? It seemed right from the outset that the animosity was entirely one sided. Bo never evidenced the disdain that was alluded to in the opening, making the premise lose some validity right from the outset.
I guess I liked it better than most of the people posting so far. Yep, it lacked believability; the attitude change was too big to happen so fast. And yep, the early foreshadowing and the hotel error were an awful lot to swallow.

Nonetheless, it was nicely told, a real romance. If there had been a longer time span, I'd have liked it better--but then, what could you have filled it with? Really, not enough details for the story you're trying to tell. Very enjoyable, just not, um, not quite believable enough. Thanks, though.
Yes, some clichés perhaps like only one room at the hotel and the classic fairy tale of hatred to love scenario but I liked it. It's well written and researched, etc. I thought one of the reveals might be that the boss who insisted that she attend had deliberately organised the hotel booking to throw them together and resolve their differences.
Still 5⛤ from me.
