to love & to loathe

Casey Villafuerte doesn't do commitment. She does charm, a corner office of a cockpit, and exit strategies. Jordyn Rivera doesn't do forgiveness - especially not for the pilot who broke her best friend's heart and never looked back.

So when their families announce an arranged marriage to save two rival aviation empires, neither woman is thrilled to discover the other half of the deal.

The plan is simple: perform the marriage until the merger's secure, then walk away clean. No feelings, no complications, no repeat of the disaster Jordyn watched Casey leave in her wake two years ago.

The plan does not survive contact with domestic life.

Between staged dates that stop feeling staged, a found family that refuses to pick sides, and a rival with a decade-old grudge and everything to lose, Casey and Jordyn find the line between performing married and actually married getting harder to locate - and harder to want to find.

But trust doesn't rebuild on schedule, old wounds don't stay closed just because you're wearing a ring, and somewhere over the water, Casey is about to find out exactly how much she has left to lose.

To Love & To Loathe is a slow-burn, marriage-of-convenience sapphic romance about choosing someone on purpose - not because a contract says you have to, but because you can't imagine choosing anyone else.
