When Enemies Collide

Lizzie Meadows has precisely crafted her life. Stonegate University, Orange County and a future as bright as her wavy waist length golden brown hair. Her on again off again dynamic with Sean Rivers her frat star boyfriend, was manageable at times aside from his insecurities that were like an annoying hum in the background of her mind. She could handle Sean, she could handle almost anything.

Almost.

Noah Carter was exception he was like a sexy dark rain cloud on her horizon. Their mutual hostility towards each other had blown up since the night he'd attacked Sean, an unprovoked outburst of violence that still stayed in her memory. Or so she believed ...
Lizzie has held on to that anger towards him since that night. Which painted Noah as the aggressor and an unpredictable force of nature.
Although beneath the certainty, a faint doubt had begun to blossom, a "rumor" that maybe, just maybe, she hadn't heard the whole story.
As much as it frustrated her she couldn't shake the unwanted attraction she felt towards Noah.

As truth about that night begins to unfold, relationships get ruined, secrets are released, and feelings are impossible to put aside.
Maybe the person she's hated the most might be the only one who truly sees her.

The line between love and hate isn't as clear as she thought
