She wants his hatred, and she's better at earning it than he expects. He wants her to fall for him again, not for love, but to watch it break her.

She isn't always the one answering to her name. Across two continents, through a buried scandal and the wreckage of two families, Love Crossed is a dark romance about the people we become to survive the people we've loved.Complete
