​Aurora:

Finding out my boyfriend was cheating on me was bad enough. Making a reckless decision afterward and ending up with the person I hate most holding it over my head is somehow worse.

Cole Ellis has hated me for years, and the feeling has always been mutual. We fight, we push, and every conversation between us turns into a battle. Until one night, all that hate turns into something far more dangerous.

Getting involved with him is a terrible idea. We hate each other, my ex would lose his mind if he found out, and I’d rather die than let anyone know I let the one guy I hate touch me.

The longer this goes on, the more dangerous it becomes.

Because sleeping with my ex’s biggest rival is one thing.

But falling for him would ruin me.

Cole:

There are a lot of reasons I should stay the hell away from Aurora Prescott.

She’s infuriating, vicious, and knows exactly how to get under my skin.

I’ve spent years trying to avoid her, but avoiding Aurora has never been easy. Especially when one night shifts everything between us, and suddenly the girl I’ve spent years hating is the one I can’t keep my hands off.

One night with her was supposed to get her out of my system. Instead, it only made me want more.

Aurora Prescott is a venomous snake and I need to remember that.

Because out of all the reasons I should stay away from her, the biggest one is that she cost me the most important thing in my life.

And I will never forgive her for that.
