“Occult expert versus archeologist, what more could we ask for?! I loved this book A LOT. There is a bit of mystery and adventure, but most of all there is crazy chemistry between the main characters that heats up the pages like no other. Riley is hired to break a centuries old curse on a Scottish castle, while Clark is hired to make sure any thing of historical value is unharmed. Will the curse break or will it create havoc in their lives? Read it and find out! Also, Shane East is one of the narrators for the audio book, and he can just narrate every book in my opinion. ”

Sparks fly when an occult expert and a disgraced archeologist become enemies-with-benefits in this steamy romance from "go-to author" Rosie Danan (The New York Times Book Review).
Riley Rhodes finally has the chance to turn her family’s knack for the supernatural into a legitimate business when she’s hired to break the curse on an infamous Scottish castle. Used to working alone in her alienating occupation, she's pleasantly surprised to meet a handsome stranger upon arrival—until he tries to get her fired.
Fresh off a professional scandal, Clark Edgeware can’t allow a self-proclaimed “curse breaker” to threaten his last chance for redemption. After he fails to get Riley kicked off his survey site, he vows to avoid her. Unfortunately for him, she vows to get even.
Riley expects the curse to do her dirty work by driving Clark away, but instead, they keep finding themselves in close proximity. Too close. Turns out, the only thing they do better than fight is fool around. If they’re not careful, by the end of all this, more than the castle will end up in ruins.
Rosie Danan is the award-winning, bestselling author of The Roommate and The Intimacy Experiment. The New York Times describes her work as "warmly funny and gorgeously sexy," and a film adaptation of The Roommate is currently in development from Anton Studios. When not writing, Rosie enjoys jogging slowly to fast music, petting other people’s dogs, and competing against herself in rounds of Chopped using the miscellaneous ingredients occupying her fridge. Like so many of her favorite romance protagonists, she resides in London.

Reviews
A LibraryReads Hall of Fame Pick!"Rosie Danan’s Do Your Worst has that rarest of tropes: an enemies-to-lovers pairing that is perfectly, lusciously balanced...It would be simpler for Riley and Clark to stay enemies if it weren’t for Danan’s signature evocation of horniness — blended here with just a soupçon of pain kink, as a treat. The sexiness is more cutting than her previous two books, with a bright acid pop that brings out the richness."—New York Times Book Review

And five more: Curses. Made. Them. Do. It.

"If the 1999 cinematic masterpiece The Mummy was an awakening for you, then get ready to be AWAKENED by Rosie Danan's Do Your Worst. I was transported to the Scottish highlands; I was highly invested in Riley and Clark breaking this curse; and I was positively feral for them to BREAK THE CURSE if you know what I mean. Anything Rosie Danan writes, I will devour it whole and lick my lips afterward. I am a forever fan."—Alicia Thompson, bestselling author of Love in the Time of Serial Killers

This is enemies to lovers at its most magical."—Sarah Hawley, author of A Witch’s Guide to Fake Dating a Demon
“Rosie Danan’s incandescently sexy Do Your Worst features a spooky Scottish castle, whip-smart prose, and the HOTTEST grumpy archaeologist since Indiana Jones.
