XO (Hate You, Maybe) ⚊ Nishimura Riki

Lee Erin lives by one rule: don't fall in love. It's foolproof-until Nishimura Riki, her brother's insufferably charming best friend, makes it his mission to turn her quiet life into his personal comedy show. Stealing her snacks? Check. Teasing her at school? Daily. Smirking at her murder glares? Absolutely.

For Ni-ki, annoying Erin is a sport, and her frustration is his trophy.

When her meddling mom tries to set her up with the "perfect" but brooding son of a family friend, Erin makes a desperate move-fake-dating Ni-ki. He agrees, but of course, he doesn't make it easy. Between staged hand-holding and not-so-fake flirting, Erin finds herself laughing more than glaring.

And Ni-ki? He might just be falling for the girl who swore she'd never fall for anyone.

It started as a fake relationship, but is their love-hate dynamic turning into something dangerously real? Or will Erin stick to her rule and break both their hearts?
