BLURB
Ben
Love? Yeah, hard pass.
It has the power to take everything from you—even yourself. It’s why I stay clear.
Don’t get me wrong. I’m a big fan of insta-lust. The kind that only lasts as long as the heat does. Come morning? It’s a whole new day. That’s why, when I meet the perfect girl at a wedding, I know, for the next couple of hours, I’m going to love every little succulent inch of her.
That’s until she tricks me, leaving me high and dry, literally.
It’s now my mission to find out who she is.
Makayla
My life couldn’t be going any worse. Falling apart would put it mildly. Comparing it to a dumpster fire sounds more accurate. And now, I’m being forced to move back home, a place I swore I would never return to.
When the one person I’ve spent my entire life hating walks back into my life, it finally pushes me over the edge.
He’s still so arrogant. So full of himself. And still has a way of lighting a fire inside me.
I need to stop looking at him the way he’s looking at me.
But everything will go up in flames once he finds out who I am.
Once upon a time, I met a boy, and he became my worst enemy. My nemesis. And now, I’m going to spend the rest of my life with him. It’s crazy how life works out.
ARC REVIEW
I loved Ben and Makayla’s story from the start! It was filled with laughs, some angst, suspense and a little sprinkle of spice.
Ben and Makayla knew each other when they were teens. They didn’t get along, they played pranks on each other. Until one day Makayla was just gone. But now she is back and the pranking hasn’t stopped, though there is a lot of tension and chemistry between the two of them.
The pranks, the back and forth, the chemistry. I love it all. I love that Makayla wasn’t afraid to go after Ben and really knew how to push his buttons and likewise for Ben. They walk to fine line of hate and passion.
I loved the suspense element to this story, too. It added an extra level to it. Plus, the emotional backstories of both Makayla and Ben. There is just so much to love and it is so easy to just fall in love with these characters.
If you’re looking for an enemies to lovers, bully, suspense romance this is one to check out.
