Sometimes the person you hate to love is the one you were meant to fall for. Liam has one goal for the get through it. Then he'll be back on campus where life makes sense. No drama. No summer job at Gary's Grocers. And definitely no dating. Until he matches with a mysterious guy on a new app. Someone funny, thoughtful, and easy to talk to. How can sparks fly when you haven't even seen someone's face? For the first time ever, Liam might enjoy his summer break. Then in walks the hot new hire at the Teague Jenson. The thick-headed, overly charismatic, ego-inflated "heart throb" from Liam's high school days. The one Liam is now stuck training. The one who seems determined to crack Liam's walls with his dopey lopsided smiles ...and the way he stands too close when asking questions. But love follows no rulebook. Neither does hate. And when the lines blur between the two, Liam finds himself torn between the anonymous intellect on the app who gets him and the real-life disaster with a charm he can't seem to get away from. HATE TO LOVE YOU is a standalone novella set in small-town Fairview and is part of the Spruce Texas universe. Originally included in the Heart2Heart Charity Anthology Volume 6, this version is revised and expanded by over 50% with additional chapters and a new ending, making it a fresh experience even for readers of the original. Expect enemies-to-lovers steam, adorkable rom-com vibes, and surprise cameos from the Spruce Texas Romance series.
