Love Hazard

release date: Aug 12, 2024
Love Hazard
A spin off... From THE BET The amount of joy I have for this, like you don''t even know. I''m actually freaking out, so here you go! u003c3, RVD When hate leads to love next door… My dad is protective. Scratch that. He’s like the person who would grab a chair, place it on the lawn, and watch me walk across the street just to deliver an apple. So, when a bet between the rude, good-looking guy across the way becomes a full-on battle, it turns into absolute chaos. He says my degree is useless and that I’m a rich, spoiled princess. I say he’s an idiot who only knows how to fix motorcycles and is incapable of having a clean-shaven face. He gives me a tiara. Thanks. I buy him a razor. Perfect. He follows that up with a book… Like. I. Can’t. Read. I then give him soap—explanation easy there. The following day, I receive a pink princess blanket that I may or may not have burned and tossed on his front doorstep, not realizing his dad is a cop. Now, both dads want the war to stop between us, forcing us to go on a camping trip to bury the hatchet—which I’m convinced he actually brought. He’s a hazard to my health. But it’s only a weekend. I honestly don’t know if we’ll make it out alive, but the dads are tired of it all. Regardless, I’ll come out, and prove I''m not the princess he thinks I am. Maybe he’ll end up lost in the woods—one can only hope. One thing’s for sure. I will never, ever fall for him. Ever. A bet with the boy next door? Challenge accepted. I’ll be waiting for my trophy at the finish line. **Every 1001 Dark Nights novella is a standalone story. For new readers, it’s an introduction to an author’s world. And for fans, it’s a bonus book in the author’s series. We hope you''ll enjoy each one as much as we do.** Reviews for Love Hazard: “I loved, loved every minute of this book.

Now, as Brock is waiting for the auction chopping block, he figures it''s karmic retribution that he''s tempted by a sexy, sassy woman he can''t have. But while they can''t have a fairy-tale ending, maybe they can indulge in a little bit of fantasy . . .

Until my family took on a foster girl and placed her across the hall from me. A charity case to look good and a person who should have never existed in my world. I kissed her to get her to stop talking, and then I kissed her again because I liked the taste of her words-I liked her. It was our secret until we got caught-that night changed everything. We became strangers living in the same house, seeing the same ghosts of our past mistakes, but I can''t stop thinking about us, about those forbidden moments. I pretend to hate her, I tell her I''ll never forgive her, and then Quinn, my ex-best friend, steps into the picture. I can''t tell if he actually likes her or if he has a death wish and just likes pissing me off, but what do I say? Stay away from my foster sister? She''s mine? I''ve already had her? Saying that to him would expose what we were and ruin everything. We''re all three of us living multiple lies, and eventually, I know our ivory tower of perfection is going to come crashing down. He knows my secrets. I know his. And now she knows both. She wants. He wants. But I always-always get what I want. And what I want is the girl, no matter what it may cost me.
