Kiss me, Then Hate me

“They were never supposed to fall in love. Not after what he did. Not after what she became. In the high-stakes world of Manhattan's elite business scene, Ariella Blake is a fiery, self-made marketing executive with a sharp tongue, a red dress, and a past no one dares ask about. She's brilliant, bold, and absolutely untouchable-until the day Damien Cross returns. Damien-ruthless, wealthy, wickedly handsome-was her high school tormentor. He made her life hell a decade ago. Now? He's the CEO of the very firm about to buy out her company. And worse... she still feels something when he walks into a room. What begins as venom-laced boardroom battles and icy insults quickly unravels into midnight meetings, heated arguments, and forbidden touches that shouldn't happen but do. Again and again. But Ariella has secrets. And Damien has demons. And when their games turn too personal, and the line between passion and revenge begins to blur-someone's going to get hurt. Badly.”
