Falling Into Love With You by Lauren Rowe (The Hate-Love Duet #2) 

Falling Into Love With You is the second book in the Hate-Love Duet, and is even better than the first book! It’s hard to say too too much without spoiling the first book, but I love Adrian and Laila so much! 

Laila is such a strong female heroine, and I absolutely loved her for that. She is not willing to put up with Adrian’s nonsense, and is not afraid to let him know. Adrian is definitely an “alphamellow” hero. He is a strong hero who is used to getting his way. However, he is completely infatuated with Laila just after locking eyes with her for the first time. I loved how he never lost interest in her, and continued to pursue her no matter what obstacles were in their way. Sometimes pursuing her looked like backing off and giving her the space that she needed, but he only ever had eyes for her. 

The romance definitely picks up in this second book. We see them falling in love with each other (as the title suggests) instead of hating each other. All of the misunderstandings and lies from the first book are cleared up as well. I absolutely adore this couple, and getting to see several past favorite couples make appearances as well.
