If there’s one thing Farrah Gray can’t stand, it’s the smug, arrogant, slightly gorgeous Mekhi Venzant. He misjudged her from the day he met her, and they’ve been enemies ever since. The heated back and forth, the sarcastic commentary, the sly insults—they all infuriate her… almost as much as they exhilarate her. Every time the up-and-coming financier crosses her path, Farrah can’t decide whether she wants to slap his face—or kiss it. Mekhi matches Farrah’s disdain. The bougie, annoying, slightly beautiful suburban princess had looked down on him from day one. Aggravating her became his mission. He just didn’t expect the annoying little bookworm to give as good as she got. When dangerous circumstances link them together, Mekhi suddenly finds himself acting as Farrah’s protector. In forced proximity, the duo discover that the passion between them doesn’t all come from anger. As things begin to heat up between them, the world around them is also set ablaze. Can their reluctant love withstand the fire or will it perish in a madman’s flame?
