"Wait!" he cried, holding onto my wrist and swiftly turning me around. I gasped, my eyes widening as he stared at me intently, his deep gaze burning into mine. "I'd prefer it if you showed me around the house."

I glared at him. "If you're gonna live in this house, we need to have a standard set of rules," I seethed. "Rule number 1: Never touch me," I declared, yanking my hand out of his.

"But-"

"Goodbye," I said, slamming the door in his face.

If there was one thing Mia Summers knew her whole life, it was this:

When you hate someone with a burning passion, you'll ultimately end up falling in love them.

Wasn't it true? Don't all the main characters from those books and movies hate each other at the beginning, but then slowly fall in love with each other by the end?

But all her dreams go crashing down when Dakota Williams stumbles into her life.

Dakota Williams - the most popular guy in school. She always made it a point to never hate him, because hating him is just as bad as liking him. Hating him means that she'll ultimately end up falling in love with him - and there was no way she was ever gonna let that happen.

But when Dakota's parents have to go out of town for a family emergency, Mia's parents offer him a place to stay - in their own house. Suddenly, Mia and Dakota have to live with each other, and they become the most unlikely of roommates. She's desperate not to let Dakota get under her skin - to ignore him at all costs. He's desperate to make Mia see him as an actual human being - even if it takes getting on her very last nerves.

No matter how many times Mia seems to push Dakota away, he keeps finding a way to come back and get under her skin. Will he find a way to finally make Mia crack?
