Synopsis
HATE
ME, TAKE ME
They
say there’s a thin line between love and hate, and in the case of these
couples, we’re talking razor thin!
In this
hate-to-love duet by Clare James, two couples cross that dangerous line…more
than once!
Hate Me
Falling
for your sister’s nemesis? Only a low-life dog would do something like that,
right? And that ain’t me, not anymore. I’m trying to be a stand-up guy—finally
making smart decisions, helping my little sister, and getting my shit
together. For once, things are finally going my way.
Until
Jenna shows up. As soon as I meet her, I know she’s the enemy. I’ve heard
enough to understand that she’s off limits. Banned. Forbidden. But when she
moves in next door, it’s impossible to stay away, and I soon discover she’s not
as bad as everyone says. Of course, she’s difficult, selfish, and a royal
pain in the ass, but she’s also gorgeous, smart, kind, and…well, let’s just say
I am that low-life dog. Traitor. Turncoat. And the world’s shittiest
brother. Woof. Woof.
Take Me
It's an
offer I can't refuse...
He was my best friend. He is my current enemy. Yet he wants me and I want him. And since we’re both stuck in our hometown unattached, we agree to a truce.
Two hours, once a week, no strings attached. But what sounds like the perfect arrangement, turns into so much more…yet not nearly enough.

Excerpt
“Jenna,” he said
with more force this time. “Look at me.”
I flashed my
gaze up to him and then back down, quickly.
It wasn’t enough
for him. He placed a finger under my chin and tipped my face up to his so I had
no choice this time. His eyes were soft, but intense. Not quite black as they
were before, but they were dilated, and his lids were slightly hooded. It made me
wonder what my eyes looked like to him in the moment. Were they giving me away?
Could he see that he had broken through the wall that not many people had? Did
he know how desperately I wanted him to stay? Could he tell I needed his touch?
Did he know he was
dealing with a completely sex-starved, socially awkward, recluse?
The corner of
his mouth quirked up just then, and I thought yes, maybe he did know.
“Thank you for
dinner,” he said as my eyes tore away from his and focused on his mouth. He
licked his bottom lip, and the flickers flashed in my stomach again. Sparks
working toward a flame.
I nodded, unable
to find my words when he was invading my space.
His lips moved
closer to my face, and I swallowed, bracing myself.
My throat went
try. My hands shook. And that flame took hold inside me. I didn’t want to wait
for him. I wanted to kill the daylight between our bodies while my hands
tangled in his hair. I wanted to know what he tasted like. There was so much I
wanted, but in the end, I couldn’t do any of those things.
And instead of
his lips descending on mine, they veered left, and landed on the shell of my
ear.
“I know you
thought I was afraid to be alone with you, but just so you know,” he said with
a ragged breath that I felt from the top of my scalp all the way down to my
toes, “I’m not afraid of anything.”
He pressed his
lips on my cheek, and then he was gone.
