The Rival - Emma Lord

The Rival is an irresistible enemies-to-lovers romcom from New York Times bestselling author of Tweet Cute, Emma Lord.

Sadie has finally bested her lifelong academic rival, Seb, by getting the coveted, only spot to her dream college. He's irritatingly charming, whip smart and happens to be her next door neighbour. She's ready to leave their rivalry behind when Seb is unexpectedly pulled off the college waitlist.

Now, Sadie has to compete with him all over again. This time, to get a spot on the college's famous zine. She'll have to deal with the mayhem of her loveably chaotic family, her own insecurities, as well as some less-than-resentful feelings for Seb that are popping up along the way.
