I adored Coming Up Roses and Tess and Luke so much! I didn't think I would love a couple more from this series until Kash and Lila came in the picture! "She reminds me of you. Her hair. The curve of her nose. The gilded lily--beautiful and perfect without any adornment but adorned all the same. Almost to frivolity." I said this for Coming Up Roses, but I have to say it again. Staci Hart's writing keeps blowing me away with her writing. She keeps exceeding my expectations over and over. Her prose was poetic, graceful, bewitching. She keeps outdoing herself and I just have to keep praising her! She deserves a whole lot more attention than she has. I've had my eye on Kash since the first novel and was excited when I found out this was his novel! He is an enigmatic man who caught my attention immediately. It broke my heart to read how he views himself, which is so low. To him, he'll always be the person girls just sleep with to have fun, but not to marry and start a family with. I just wanted to hug him so tight and never let go. For the first time in my life, I wished I was something else. Something more. Ambitious and successful and rich. Powerful. I wished I was the kind of man Lila wouldn't just f*ck. I wished I was the kind of man she'd keep. I loved Lila and her ambition. She's a wedding planner and she hopes to one day have a high position in the company she works at, or better yet, own her own business. I loved how she kept her cool among extremely irritating and tough clients. I would've done something to those clients, let me tell you. I loved all the hate between Kash and Lila. The tension could be cut with a knife! The chemistry between these two was electric! But at the same time, when it came to the emotional aspect, they complimented each other so well. They each brought out the best in one another and motivated each other to keep moving forward in their business. You really can't help but fall in love with them and the love they have for each other. I know I did! One person who shined a lot for me was Lila's sister, Ivy. She is SUPER hilarious! Her insults are the best I've ever read! My favorite one has to be, "Dumbassador." I already introduced this word in my every day talk so Staci, kudos to you for doing this. And the list has more! You guys need to read this book and find out and get more inspo on insulting people, especially those who break your heart! Overall, Gilded Lily is a fantastic enemies-to-lovers rom-com that will surely leave you wanting to stay bewitched for life, as long as you can keep reading the words that Staci Hart has created. -- Follow Me: Blog ❃ Instagram ❃ Twitter ❃ Bloglovin ❃ Goodreads ❃ Pinterest

This book was everything!! I haven´t had a 5-star review in a while, but this book was incredible written I couldn´t put it down. Since Coming up Roses I wanted to follow the rest of the Bennet siblings and Staci as always didn´t disappoint. At the beginning I didn´t like Lila very much, especially her attitude towards everyone, but little by little I started liking her. Everyone was so mean to her I just wanted to go and hug her... Kash on the other way was amazing since the beginning (even though he was a bit of an ass near the end). I hated he felt so little of him but it was niceto read how these 2 helped each other with their insecurities. I think this is one of the few books were there were a lot of characters I hated like Brock, Natasha and Addison, I don't think I would've had the same attitude as Lila. On the outside she made it look like nothing mattered to her but on the inside she was slowly breaking. That's why I'm glad Kash helped her see that not everything in life was about money and fame. Their relationship was so cute, at the beginning it looked like they hated each other but that was because neither of them showed hoy they really felt about things, but through the whole story they started to open up and their chemistry was definitely off the charts, their moments were really hot... Now I can't wait to keep reading about these siblings, especially Marcus story, because that excerpt at the end was really good, so I can't wait to read how it ends.
