An assassin and a healer are forced to team up in this witty, screwball romantic comedy set in a world of magic.

“Knightley’s debut is an absolute joy, full of well-written banter and entertaining vignettes. Readers will be captivated by an exceptionally clever magical system, several concurrent mysteries, and the slowest of slow burn romances between two people who absolutely hate each other…This is a superlative read deserving of very real praise.”—Booklist, starred review

“Charming and perfectly crafted, this will-they-won’t-they slow burning romance between two enemies is now one of my favorite books I’ve ever read. Knightley’s debut crackles with wit and magic, intrigue and banter, and has left a mark behind on my heart.”—Rebecca Ross, #1 New York Times bestselling author of Divine Rivals

“Quite possibly the perfect book. Agonizing yearning. Wit so dry I got a paper cut. Every page a symphony of cleverness and humor. Irresistible is right—I fell hard for this book and I’m desperate for more.”—Olivie Blake, New York Times bestselling author of Masters of Death

“Clever, original, and ridiculously fun, The Irresistible Urge to Fall for Your Enemy is my newest obsession! Knightley has built a world I never wanted to leave, and her characters kept me up way too late, grinning at their banter. An absolute gem of a book!”—Kristen Ciccarelli, New York Times bestselling author of Heartless Hunter
