They've hated each other since before they could spell the word. Same town. Same street. Same school. From the sandbox till now , they've been locked in an endless game of insults, eye rolls, and who-can-be-louder. But then, when they were ten-just for a second-everything shifted. It wasn't planned. It wasn't talked about. One summer night, too much quiet, too many stars, and suddenly... they almost kissed. Not because they liked each other. Not because the rivalry was gone. But because, in that moment, something between them cracked open. And then it was over. They never spoke about it. They went back to the way things were. Sharp words. Cold shoulders. Loud silences. Now they're 15. Older. Bolder. And somehow, that one second they never talk about? It's louder than ever. He looks at her like he wants to win and ruin her in the same breath. She talks to him like she hates him-but she never looks away. It's still a war. It's still personal. But every fight feels like it's covering up something they're too afraid to say out loud. Because that almost-kiss may be five years old... But the tension? It never left. And the next time their guard slips, someone might actually cross the line.

A gender-bent Pride & Prejudice retelling, told by a female Darcy. After months of struggling at work following her father's death, Dacia García needs a break. Or rather, she's forced into one by her boss after a public meltdown and subsequent panic attack in front of company shareholders. Despite having zero interest in returning to Texas, she has no one but her college friends Chastity and Christian Barrera to turn to, who are temporarily residing in San Antonio for the summer. Dacia's ideal vacation is reading the days away and sulking about her problems in peace, but when Chastity falls head over heels for Jane Galindo, Dacia is roped into hanging out with Jane's family and friends week after week. That includes Marcus Galindo, Jane's charming younger brother who wants nothing to do with Dacia after overhearing a snarky comment made about his future profession in elementary education. Marcus and Dacia butt heads over everything, but there's something about him that keeps drawing her back to him. As time passes and they keep running into each other, they start spending time alone together and even begin to like one another. But their tenuous relationship threatens to implode when someone from Dacia's past throws her character into question. Marcus knows Dacia is keeping something from him, and its stopping him from falling for her the way she's already fallen for him. Dacia will have to learn to trust Marcus with the darkest truths of her heart if she doesn't want to lose him forever. But even that might not be enough to keep them together.
