I picked this one up solely because the H’s named King。 Darling Enemy is an oldie （1983） and features Kingston Devereaux and Teddi Whitehall。 This is one of her earlier novels， but she already had many of her trademark elements going。 Teddi is an orphan that models; she’s also significantly （20） younger than her longtime love， King。 （34） King is a judgmental cowboy who loves Teddi desperately， but is torn because all models are party whores。。。 so he's broody and pushes her away to keep her safe I picked this one up solely because the H’s named King。 Darling Enemy is an oldie （1983） and features Kingston Devereaux and Teddi Whitehall。 This is one of her earlier novels， but she already had many of her trademark elements going。 Teddi is an orphan that models; she’s also significantly （20） younger than her longtime love， King。 （34） King is a judgmental cowboy who loves Teddi desperately， but is torn because all models are party whores。。。 so he's broody and pushes her away to keep her safe from his “man feelings”。 There are a few differences though; the meddler is an OM not an OW; King is Australian born living in Canada， and there is no secret/forced marriage， or even sex…not once。Overall， it was ok。 It’s short-ish so I didn’t really have to skim， but the entire book is pretty much based on miscommunications from both， so that got old。 。。。more

Diana Palmer is a good writer， but this story's male interest， Kingston， is abusive to main character， Teddi， in every way， and pretty much ruined the story for me。 Too bad， because the writing was high-quality， Teddi was likable and sympathetic， and the Canadian Rockies made for a lovely background for a romance。 Despite these perks， two stars， for Kingston's gaslighting and borderline abuse for nearly 200 pages。 Diana Palmer is a good writer， but this story's male interest， Kingston， is abusive to main character， Teddi， in every way， and pretty much ruined the story for me。 Too bad， because the writing was high-quality， Teddi was likable and sympathetic， and the Canadian Rockies made for a lovely background for a romance。 Despite these perks， two stars， for Kingston's gaslighting and borderline abuse for nearly 200 pages。 。。。more

Ini cerita tentang seorang lelaki bernama Kingstone yang jatuh cinta kepada teman adiknya。 Padahal sebelumnya dia benci mengingat profesinya sebagai model yang dalam pandangan Kingstone adalah identik dengan wanita murahan

HAHAHAHA buku tolol astaghfirullooh。Cowoknya merkosa ceweknya （tapi gak sampai penetrasi） dua kali。 Without sorry。 Malah ceweknya yang disalahkan。 Nylahin baju。 Sudah tahu ceweknya perawan masih mekso aja nuduh pelacur dll。Cowoknya sok macho banget， memerlukan kepatuhan mutlak。 Tapi nggak peka。 Nggak percaya sama wanita yang katanya dia cintai selama hampir ENAM tahun。 Bangsat。Dan banyak banget poin lain yang nggak masuk akal dan nggak bakal diterima kaum perempuan yang hidup di era sekarang。 Sa HAHAHAHA buku tolol astaghfirullooh。Cowoknya merkosa ceweknya （tapi gak sampai penetrasi） dua kali。 Without sorry。 Malah ceweknya yang disalahkan。 Nylahin baju。 Sudah tahu ceweknya perawan masih mekso aja nuduh pelacur dll。Cowoknya sok macho banget， memerlukan kepatuhan mutlak。 Tapi nggak peka。 Nggak percaya sama wanita yang katanya dia cintai selama hampir ENAM tahun。 Bangsat。Dan banyak banget poin lain yang nggak masuk akal dan nggak bakal diterima kaum perempuan yang hidup di era sekarang。 Sakit hati nanti kelen， ladies。 Apalagi pegiat feminis。Yang kulakukan cuma ngakak aja sih。 Lucu-lucu minta ditabok sampe mati。Satu bintang kuberikan kepada penulis dan tim penerjemah yang menyuguhkan tata bahasa oke。 Sebenernya pola pikir buku ini cocok untuk era 70-an （betul juga karena bukunya sendiri pertama terbit awal 80an）。 But still， aku sih no。 Satu poin plusnya， age gap lumayan lebar （14 tahun）。Tapi aku belum kapok， kok。 Karena ini baru pertama kali aku baca Diana Palmer， aku masih optimis buku lain nggak serendah ini memperlakukan perempuan。 Aku bakal membuka kesempatan lagi。 Aku yakin aku cuma kurang hoki dapat buku DP dengan karakter laki-laki yang begini 😂 。。。more

Loved it！Another wonderful story by this awesome author。 King is a man you want to hate but there is a side of him that will absolutely melt you。 Teddie is a young woman with secrets that only her best friend who happens to be kings sister。 When ever King and Teddie are together all they seem to do is fight！

"Darling Enemy" is the story of Teddi and King。Teddi our protagonist is an orphan， and spends her days modelling in NY in order to pay her rent。 She has a slutty aunt with leechy boyfriend， whom she avoids。Her best friend and confidante is Jenna， her room-mate who has a brother- the ever brooding and handsome King- whom she has secretly lusted after and who hates her because he believes all models are sluts， and sluts are bad bla bla。When one morning before vacations， King is ranting about Teddi "Darling Enemy" is the story of Teddi and King。Teddi our protagonist is an orphan， and spends her days modelling in NY in order to pay her rent。 She has a slutty aunt with leechy boyfriend， whom she avoids。Her best friend and confidante is Jenna， her room-mate who has a brother- the ever brooding and handsome King- whom she has secretly lusted after and who hates her because he believes all models are sluts， and sluts are bad bla bla。When one morning before vacations， King is ranting about Teddi to Jenna， she overhears and is hurt， he sees it and then goes to verbally abuse her while using her attraction against her， and then makes fun of her while inviting her to his home so he can do it all over again。 Yes， she agrees。We see the same cycle throughout the book- our hero having preconceptions and slut shaming the heroine- who hear this- is as expected a virgin， kissing her to push her away and further shame her， verbally chide her and suspecting her of having an affair with every man。 He even believed her potential evil stalker over her。 Until the end the push and pull game had happened x number of times， and even when I thought it ended- it was another cycle of running away and chasing。。。。Read this if you want your leads to behave like 17th century horny puritans。 And this is a common trope in DP books， Ive read it SO MANY times before， but today。。 NOPE。SWE2。5/5 。。。more

A nice entertaining read， called Darling Enemy。This is an older book and there is smoking involved。 King is a rough and tough cattleman who has not been to charm school。 He has no time for the empty headed glamorous model Teddi and he lets her know it。 They trade insults back and forth as they both try to disguise their real feelings。 A tragic event from Teddi's life surfaces leaving King feeling protective and this opens the doorway to love。This was a nice read but not one of her best。 Somehow A nice entertaining read， called Darling Enemy。This is an older book and there is smoking involved。 King is a rough and tough cattleman who has not been to charm school。 He has no time for the empty headed glamorous model Teddi and he lets her know it。 They trade insults back and forth as they both try to disguise their real feelings。 A tragic event from Teddi's life surfaces leaving King feeling protective and this opens the doorway to love。This was a nice read but not one of her best。 Somehow the characters lacked passion and were kind of flat for me。 Still a good read。 。。。more

El peor libro de la historia。 Ni sé porqué lo tengo。 Creo que alguien que me odia me lo regalo。 （Lo bueno que ya lo quemé）。King es un abusador， machista， violador y agresivo。 Teddi es una idiota sin voz ni voto。 Cuando King le hace daño， llora y le suplica。 Un par de puñetazos y patadas en sus partes sensibles es lo que necesitaba el infeliz de King。Todos los personajes son unos imbéciles， que no sirven para nada， y que se dejan manipular por King。 Ni la mejor amiga de Teddi interviene para que El peor libro de la historia。 Ni sé porqué lo tengo。 Creo que alguien que me odia me lo regalo。 （Lo bueno que ya lo quemé）。King es un abusador， machista， violador y agresivo。 Teddi es una idiota sin voz ni voto。 Cuando King le hace daño， llora y le suplica。 Un par de puñetazos y patadas en sus partes sensibles es lo que necesitaba el infeliz de King。Todos los personajes son unos imbéciles， que no sirven para nada， y que se dejan manipular por King。 Ni la mejor amiga de Teddi interviene para que el animal de su hermano deje de ser un idiota。En fin， ¿para qué hago corajes？ Ya lo quemé。 。。。more

3。5 Stars！Diana Palmer books are one of my guilty pleasure！ No matter how much her books enraged me at times， I still loved it。 I don't know why but I always enjoyed her overbearing， domineering， arrogant， judgmental and highly possessive heroes and her sweet， naive， feisty and virginal heroines。 And besides， her books was always quite full of emotional and sexual tension which I loved in a book。 3。5 Stars！Diana Palmer books are one of my guilty pleasure！ No matter how much her books enraged me at times， I still loved it。 I don't know why but I always enjoyed her overbearing， domineering， arrogant， judgmental and highly possessive heroes and her sweet， naive， feisty and virginal heroines。 And besides， her books was always quite full of emotional and sexual tension which I loved in a book。 。。。more

This was quite a good read and I quite enjoyed it！ But sigh， lack of communication was something which always ate my head and my heart out。 But the writer was convincing and she quite made me， almost， sympathize with the heroine and act like some riled up fairy Godmother， throwing the hero out of my house while taking her under my care。 But that didn't happen and the main characters managed to get their differences out of the way。 It was quite nice， and I didn't hate my gut to want to read thi This was quite a good read and I quite enjoyed it！ But sigh， lack of communication was something which always ate my head and my heart out。 But the writer was convincing and she quite made me， almost， sympathize with the heroine and act like some riled up fairy Godmother， throwing the hero out of my house while taking her under my care。 But that didn't happen and the main characters managed to get their differences out of the way。 It was quite nice， and I didn't hate my gut to want to read this book。 。。。more
