And maybe just a little bit turned on. So, naturally, he makes it his mission to shut her up-with charm, persistence, and exceptionally good hands, he sets out to prove how wrong she is. But as their very public rivalry turns into something much steamier, Lucy realizes one terrifying truth-she might just be falling for the one guy she swore to hate.
