πŸ”– RELEASE DAY REVIEW πŸ”– Hated You Then by M. Robinson




Hated You Then by M. Robinson

Release Date: September 17th 2019
Genres: Romance, Contemporary

From Wall Street Journal & USA Bestselling Author M. Robinson. A coming of age, enemies to lovers, contemporary romance filled with angst and all the feels. 

I couldn’t remember a time before her... Harley Jameson. 

Before she owned me.
Hated Me.
Needed me.

Before I hated her…

Things were simple. 
We had an understanding. 

Bully. Fight. Hate. It’s what we did.

Mind. Body. Soul. It’s how we loved.

I thought nothing would ever change that, until everything did. 

She was mine. 
Always had been. 
Always would be. 
Nothing altered that.

Not how much I hated her.
Not how much she hated me. 

Especially, not how much I hated… 

That I LOVED her.




My Review:

This is my first time reading anything from the author and it definitely won’t be the last. Hated You Then is the first book in the Love Hurts Duet, in which we get to see how two kids’ hate for one another ends up turning into love.

Their families might not be blood related, but they have always been close. Yet, Harley and Jackson have hated each other since birth. Having to see each other constantly growing up definitely didn’t help as their constant banter turned physical and Harley has the bruises to prove it. Neither one wants to give up and they tease each other to no end. While Jackson grows up being the popular kid at school, Harley is constantly plotting what to do to him next. It was hilarious to see the two challenged each other. But just like that everything changes for Jackson as a tragedy hits him and that will ultimately change the course of his life forever. But what seems to be constant in his life is Harley and even though they’ve fought all this time, she is there for him when he needed someone the most. It is through the years that they slowly start to see each other in a new light, yet neither one wants to admit their true feelings for each other. It’s a turn of events that neither one expected to change their relationship forever.

I truly enjoyed reading the book, it gives us such a great insight into their earlier years without rushing the story. It is also told in dual POV, which it’s great seeing their own story separately. Harley was such a great character to get to know, she is feisty and totally fashionable. She doesn’t care what other think about her and it was refreshing to read. On the other hand, Jackson’s love for football gets him popularity not only at his school, but the whole town as well. Their banter was hilarious to read! There are some really funny moments that I enjoyed and some really sad moments that had me feeling for the characters. All in all, the story was great and I cannot wait read what happens next. I would highly recommend checking out this book, you will not regret it! :)

**I voluntarily read an early copy of this title in exchange for an honest review**

My Rating: 4.5/5
