Meet You in the Middle

De: Devon Daniels

Narrado por: Brittany Pressley, Mark Deakins

What happens when the person you find most impossible becomes impossible to resist? The Hating Game meets The West Wing in this hilarious across-the-aisle romantic comedy debut about America’s least likely couple.

There's just one thing standing between liberal Senate staffer Kate Adams and passage of the landmark legislation she's been fighting for all year: Ben Mackenzie, intimidating gatekeeper for one of DC's most powerful conservative senators. After Kate and Ben lock horns in a meet-not-so-cute, they vow to take each other down—by any means necessary.

Their ensuing power struggle gives new meaning to the term office politics: prank mail, spying, bets gone awry—nothing’s off limits in their battle of wills. She thinks he’s arrogant (and doesn't deserve those gorgeous green eyes). He thinks she's too quick to judge (and irresistibly distracting). But as their endless game of one-upmanship becomes Kate's favorite part of the day, she starts to wonder if her feelings for Ben are closer to attraction than animosity...and maybe their sparring is flirting. When Kate realizes there's more to Ben than meets the eye, she's forced to confront her biggest fear: In her sworn enemy, she may have found her perfect match.

Perfect for fans of Sally Thorne and Jasmine Guillory, Meet You in the Middle is a modern, heartfelt and hopeful romance that hilariously explores what happens when you fall in love with your political polar opposite.

LOVED THIS STORY!!

Loved the banter between Ben & Kate! If ever there was a time for needing to see the opposing political parties on a more humanizing light, it is now! The fact that the book shows how the main characters overcome differences by truly meeting in the middle, gives insightful perspective on how every relationship would benefit from applying the same logic.

Excellent Book!

Beautiful story. The only thing I would change is the male narrator. However, the story is funny and a must read.

Meeting in the middle

*May contain vague spoilers*

I love the plot and honestly the heart of the story.
If more people would “meet in the middle” the country would be a more productive place. I found myself relating myself so much to Ben’s character and way of thinking and especially when he says something along the lines of “I don’t have to blindly agree with everything just because of party affiliation” and “I can see some points from the other side”.
This has been me since I’ve started voting. I always say people shouldn’t just vote because it’s their party- Do they know what they stand for? What their platform is? What has they achieved so far? What type of character they have? Etc. I don’t need to only know if the are blue or red, I need to know they are human and what kind.

My favorite romance book ❤️

I have listened to this book so many times. I love it! It has all the enemies to lovers banter, mixed with thoughtful story telling of two people choosing each other. Fantastic ✨🥰✨
