Nancy and Travis have known each other for years. Since Nancy is best friends with Syd (Travis’ sister,) the two have more than a work connection.

This has Nancy making decisions that affect their work relationship and her future.
But Syd wasn’t going to let that stand. She pushed her brother to fix his ways and to make sure Syd didn’t walk away from him altogether.
Since Nancy & Travis were first introduced in Camos & Cupcakes, we wanted to know their story. And this was definitely a fun read. From the Little Old Ladies keeping the gossip going to protecting a friend from a stalker… They all played their part and it helped bring out the depth and fun within the story. Love visiting this world and I look forward to more!

Travis Fillmore and Nancy Howard star together on a well to do home improvement show. Their relationship is much longer than a span that the show has been going. Nancy is Travis‘s sister’s best friend and have known each other for many many years. Working together is natural for them. However curveballs are thrown when neither one of them can no longer deny what they feel for one another.
Travis’ head gets big and his attitude goes right along with it. Nancy has had it with the crap and quits the show. Only too late does Travis realize what the bigger picture of it all is, and set with a new determination not only to get his co host back but prove that she was so much more than that all along. The old saying goes “You don’t know what you got until it’s gone”, until you have a sister who is not afraid to kick you in the behind to make you realize it’s not gone but groveling will be necessary.
Nancy and Travis have a solid friendship and along the way it turns into so much more. Denial can only get you so far until you realize you might have just missed out on it all. Their bickering and dancing around one another is just a slow burn that is bound to explode. And they surely do. As they begin to acknowledge their feelings for one another Nancy discovers a stalker on her tail. And with that one thing, everything for Nancy and Travis changes. They may be watching over their shoulders but they know their feelings for one another are genuine, true and completely mutual. I loved visiting Juniper Springs and it’s corky town folks. The LOL are a riot. In its own weird way it felt like a home away from home. Ms. Schroeder gives readers an entertaining and slow burn romance with Love to Hate You. Well developed characters with charismatic personalities along with a fun setting, an entertaining plot line and some steamy romance more than make Love to Hate You a more than enjoyable read.
Love To Hate You by author Melissa Schroeder started out slower than I’m normally used to but once the pace picked up, I enjoyed seeing Travis and Nancy finally reveal their feelings for each other and get in some sexy times. I also liked the suspenseful elements in this book which really captured my attention and had me turning page after page. I loved seeing the interaction Travis and Nancy had with the other characters in this series. Looking forward to the next story.
Okay so I really haven’t read anything from Melissa that I haven’t liked. With that being said, this book is right up there in the top ten! Travis and Nancy’s story is so good, but you’re going to have to read it to find out yourself. I loved not only Travis and Nancy, but all the characters that make this book wonderful!! Great job Melissa keep them coming!!!
I absolutely loved this story about Nancy and Travis. This is a great afternoon read, so make sure you have plenty of time to enjoy the book. Travis has not been very nice to his cohost Nancy because he is trying to hide his true feelings for her. They are friends but they both want to be so much more to each other. They are afraid to ruin their friendship by starting a romance. Nancy, sick of Travis’s antics quits the show which spurs Travis to admit to his true feelings and the realization he wants to be more than just cohosts. I was given an arc. This is my honest review. I would definitely recommend this book!
Friends forever and cohosts of their own show, Travis and Nancy have denied their feelings for each other for too long and the pressure of hiding has now pushed them apart, but with new threats against Nancy, Travis finds his courage to finally claim what was always right in front of her. I love the characters within this series which is a spin off from another series of Melissa’s books. Strong woman characters with desires and strength to back them.

Love to Hate You is Travis and Nancy Story. They are stars of a home improvement reality show and have known each for years. Nancy is best friends with Travis’ sister. They have each had a crush on the other for years. Travis has been acting more and more like an idiot the last two seasons of their show and treating Nancy bad. He was doing to try and protect his heart since he thought she did not have feelings for him but all he did was push Nancy into quitting the show. When his sister tells him that he needs to go fix what he messed up he ends up with Nancy in their hometown. Things get crazy from there as her grandmother is trying to force her into marriage to a creep, and someone is stalking Nancy. As Travis comes to stay with Nancy to protect her they open up (with a little push from Syd) about how they feel and their chemistry is HOT once they get together. They just need to stop the stalker to see if they can truly have their HEA.
Love to Hate You is the second book in Schroeder’s new series. Travis Fillmore and Nancy Howard are stars of a home improvement reality show. Nancy has had a crush on Travis for years. Unbeknownst to her he has had one on her but acts like a jerk thinking he isn’t good enough and that she doesn’t care! Having had enough of Travis’ attitude and treatment Nancy decides to quit the show. The old adage you don’t miss something until it’s gone proves true here! Not only does Travis try to get Nancy back by apologizing but throw in her whacky family, a marriage her grandmother want to a nutcase Not happening, a stalker and a bit of jealousy you get a great book!
I needed to read this book! After reading a string of horrible romance novels, this book is exactly what I had been looking for—nay! Needing—in my life.
Ugh! Why do I love enemies to lovers plots so much? If you are like I am and love when the h and H start out fighting and then end up loving each other, you will LOVE this book! Travis brings in a lady friend to his and Nancy’s TV show, and the lady friend tells Nancy how to do her job. Travis executed that plan to hurt Nancy! Let us just say that plan did not go well for Travis to say the least. It didn’t only hurt her; she realized that she didn’t have to take that crap from him, so she left. I do not want to spoil the book, so you need to trust me and do yourself a favor by reading this book!
The writing is smooth and easy to read. The characters are well developed. The plot follows a wonderful romance novel formula with a HEA and no cliffhangers. Get this book now, and witness the perfectly angsty relationship develop between Nancy and Travis.

We’re back in Juniper Springs and there’s plenty going on to keep the LOL’s (Little Old Ladies) busy. Nancy’s had her fill of Travis’s antics on and off the set. Now that she’s set to walk away from him and their show, Travis realizes he’s about to lose more than just his co-host. Just as he’s determined to make things right, there’s someone else who’s after Nancy and not in a nice way.
This is a fun read with a touch of intrigue surrounding a potential stalker. There’s plenty of sharp wit, some snark, a bit of suspense, and just enough steamy passion to raise the temperature. The interactions between all the characters is highly entertaining. It’s especially amusing watching Nancy and Travis as they try to hide their feelings for each other when they’re the only ones who don’t know how they feel. It’s a storyline that is so appealing you’ll find it hard to put down.
She’s What…

This story was fantastic! The characters had such depth and development that I didn’t want this story to end. The familial relationships in the story were intense, but they totally added to the dynamic and suspense of the story.

Wow, I mean I knew Travis and Nancy had chemistry but just wow! From the first appearance in Camos and Cupcakes I fell in love with these two. I enjoyed getting to know them both better. Watching their relationship evolve was so interesting.
I loved the characters, the dialogue, and the drama. I’m not going to lie I thought I knew who the bad guy was but ended up questioning myself a couple times. Miss Schroeder definitely kept me on my toes.
This book had me laughing and even tearing up a couple of times. I am so ready for more of the Juniper Springs characters, and definitely for more of the Hawthorne brothers.
