He wasn’t banking on someone else taking the reins…
Lady Estelle Foxbrooke is done cleaning up the mess left by her wild parents. She’s got a plan: take the reins and save the family estate her way. But then she’s saddled with a business partner she’s
hated all her life. He’s her twin brother’s worst enemy and looms in her path like a six-foot-four hurdle.
After a catastrophic business failure, rich and successful James Hunter-Savage has watched his dream life in London crash and burn. Forced to ditch the city for the Somerset countryside, he’s now living with his parents and expected to work with the infuriatingly attractive Estelle. She’s sharper than a whip, pushes all his buttons, and seems determined to break him.
As Estelle and James jockey for position, their explosive personalities combust into passion, sending
Estelle’s plans to the edge of ruin. With James’s flimsy reputation in tatters, and the biggest event on the Foxbrooke calendar on the brink of collapse, will they realise their love is worth fighting for? Or
are their hearts and hard work heading for the ultimate fall?
The Upper Crush is a laugh-out-loud, enemies-to-lovers, steamy, standalone, small town romantic comedy with a fiery country girl giving a cocky city boy a run for his money. No cheating or cliffhanger, but snort-laughs, swoons and a deliciously happy ending guaranteed in this sparkling and sizzling romcom!

My thoughts: this was a fun, entertaining rom com set in Somerset, where Estelle Foxbrooke is trying to organise a music festival on her family’s estate. But the company that’s supposed to be sponsoring it is now under new management and she’s worried it’s going to all fall apart.
The new CEO is her twin brother’s nemesis from school and in business. How on earth will they work together?
Of course sparks fly, and even her irritating unicorn slippers, horny dogs and Spice Girls cut out don’t seem to be driving James away. What’s a girl to do? Well, apparently fall madly in love with him, fall off her horse and after an almost endless series of misunderstandings and crossed wires, finally admit you were wrong.
It’s a lot of fun getting there, there’s some very steamy sex scenes, both have slightly bonkers parents (I think Estelle’s have the edge) and James really needs to get over himself first, but thankfully he does.
