The Problem with Him (The Opposites Attract Series Book 3) Kindle Edition

I have been super amped to start a Rachel Higginson book for so long and was so excited to jump into Kaya and Wyatt's book. Anyone who knows me knows that enemies to lovers is my JAM and so seeing the spitfire banter and sexy back and forth between these two really hit the spot. The Problem With Him was sexy, steamy, full of HOT sexual tension and the growly alpha-ness that I adore. Wyatt in particular was absolutely delicious and ALLL the things I love in a hero. He gave me all the swoons and made my heart melt throughout this whole story!!While I loved them both together, I loved Kaya and Wyatt so much on an individual basis. I loved how ambitious and determined she was in accomplishing her dreams while also battling her own demons and her internal struggle of belonging and feeling worthy. Her banter with Wyatt was magnificent and I felt that the tension between them was palpable and singed my fingers right off the pages. His kindness, honesty and ability to make Kaya feel as she is worth it and so valuable was fantastic. He helped slay her demons and also helped her realize that she is strong and the perfect girl for him. He was heartwarming and so amazing and I might want to keep him in my pocket forever!While I did love Wyatt and Kaya and their love story, I did feel that Kaya's prickly and headstrong attitude towards Wyatt sometimes created an unnecessary hostile environment. I loved her sass and spitfire attitude but I felt she kept Wyatt at a distance where he (and I) couldn't really connect with her. In addition, I felt like the secret she kept from Wyatt contributed to this emotional distance which also prevented me from enjoying the story to the max.All in all though, I did love this story as I felt it was so smartly written and a joy to read. I am seriously foaming at the mouth to go back and read Killian and Ezra's books. Bravo! 4 stars! ~Ratula (less)

Quasi enemies to lovers with a slow burn buildup, Kaya is the sous chef/second in command to Wyatt's Executive Chef position at Lilou. Wyatt was named the successor after Killian stepped down and Kaya can't forget it. Having worked with each other for at least 4 years prior to the transition, reporting to your biggest competitor really stings for Kaya and she's constantly pushing Wyatt's buttons. When Wyatt sort of waves the white flag and admits have much he relies and needs her in the kitchen all sorts of wires and messages get crossed and Kaya starts to see Wyatt in an all together different light. But Kaya has been down this road before and has vowed to not let love or a man get in the way of her dreams, to one day run her own kitchen and be EC. Que the push and pull :)I REALLY like Wyatt. He's got the whole bad boy thing down pat but yet he's a genuinely good guy. Kaya kind of gave me this love her or leave her vibe. I completely get where she's coming from and 100% agree with her assessment...why is it so hard for a woman to be successful and career driven but then be dogged by love or her lack of a social life? It's like you can have one but not the other. Her ex really did a number of her view of her self worth and so she's constantly running or pushing Wyatt away. She was in her head a little too much for my tastes and her dialogue got a little repetitive but I enjoyed her character overall along with her growth as a chef. Wyatt, man, if there is one thing I think this book was missing it was a Wyatt POV...man, oh man, I would have loved to known his thoughts because it seems like Kaya had him pegged wrong from the start. Love the cooking and food aspect of these books, really enjoy them.

The Problem with Him is the third book in this series. I would definitely read them in order as previous characters cross into this book and have fairly big roles.I loved the first book, Vera and Killian’s story. Each book after that has gone downhill for me.I was really looking forward to Wyatt’s story. I loved him when we first met him in the first book. Vera having to hold him hostage in her food truck while he ate her food showed me what a cute, likable character he was. He was flirty, a bit of a smart aleck but in the brief glimpses we saw him you just knew he was going to be a great character. I just wish that had been expanded on in his own book. Sadly it was not.We do learn a bit about his backstory from one conversation he had while walking with Kaya. I just wanted more of Wyatt.This book, like the earlier books is told only from the female characters point of view. And being in Kaya’s head for 300+ pages was not a fun place to be. She was not a character that I particularly liked in the first book. She was supposed to be a “difficult, headstrong, ambitious woman”. But for me she came across as spiteful, ungrateful, snarky, whiny and mean spirited. She carried such a huge chip on her shoulder for what she felt she should have been given. It made her seem very childish. And constantly comparing Wyatt to her one and only boyfriend from high school got old fast. Being in her head was exhausting. So much angst. The constant push and pull toward Wyatt was so over the top.It was not a bad book. Not my favorite of the series. It was definitely a slow burn story. That wrapped up very quickly toward the end. There is no cheating and they do finally get together in the end. I would have loved an epilogue as there were a few unanswered things left hanging.I will be reading Dillon and Vann’s story.

As usual, Rachel Higginson brings us another cracker of a read!Rachel writes believable dialogue and her charaters are well developed and likeable. Wyatt and Kaya are flawed but loveable and its easy to engage with them and their storyline.Rachel weaves into this book, the lives of the characters from the previous novels in this series - its extremely satisfying to be kept up to date with other charaters that we've invested time getting to know - but reading the first two books is not essential in the understanding of this one.There's enough steam in this book to keep hard core romance lovers warm, but not so much that reading it in public becomes problematic!Rachel is a gifted romance novelist and this book is definitely worth a read!

I’ve loved Rachel’s other books but I couldn’t warm to Kaya at all. I also thought this was quite overwritten. The last quarter was ok but it was a hard slog getting there, disappointingly.

I absolutely loved this book.It's beautifully written and the characters are well developed and lovable despite the friction that takes place for part of the story.Once you really get in to it, you find that things weren't quite what they seemed and that's when the story really opens up and I found myself urging Wyatt and Kaya along all the way!Excellent book and MUST READ SERIES!

I've read all of Rachel's stories and she has such a gift. Her depth of characters, the emotion she's able to convey and the way you can relate to issues, scenarios and characters is exceptional. This book is no different; I loved Kaya and Wyatt's story. It's packed with emotion and so believable by the end you feel like you've lived it. A must read!

Loved this book. Was the perfect read for sitting beside the pool on holiday. Can't wait to see what the future has in store for Dillon.
