About This Audiobook
Kristen Callihan's *Dear Enemy* transplants a childhood rivalry into the glittering world of Hollywood, where Delilah finds herself face-to-face with the last person she ever wanted to see again: Macon Saint, her sister's ex and her longtime nemesis. When a stolen family heirloom forces the two into reluctant proximity, Delilah strikes a deal to work as Macon's personal chef and assistant until the debt is settled. What unfolds is a slow-burn enemies-to-lovers story built on sharp banter, buried wounds, and the uncomfortable realization that the person you despised most might understand you best.
The dual narration by Maxine Mitchell and Sebastian York is central to the audiobook's appeal. Mitchell brings Delilah's dry wit and guarded vulnerability to life with precise comic timing, while York lends Macon a brooding warmth that makes his gradual softening entirely believable. The two narrators share strong chemistry across their scenes, lending the story's escalating tension a convincing push-and-pull rhythm. At nearly twelve hours, the pacing holds throughout.
