My eyes widened and I randomly exclaimed, "Oh, my God!"
"What?"
"Christian, thanks to you, I now understand what people mean when they say you're dark and handsome!"
Christian looked smug. "I knew you would eventually."
"They mean that when it's dark, you're handsome!"
The smug look on his face disappeared. "I hate you."

Malicious taste (Book 1 RUINS OF US)
♥︎𝑭𝒓𝒊𝒆𝒏𝒅𝒔 𝒕𝒐 𝒆𝒏𝒆𝒎𝒊𝒆𝒔 𝒕𝒐 𝒍𝒐𝒗𝒆𝒓𝒔✦ Eight years ago, Aria Devlin and Ethan Kade were more than friends-they were a force. Until ambition, betrayal, and one devastating misunderstanding tore them apart. She swore she'd never speak to him again. He made sure she wouldn't have the chance. Now, Aria Devlin walks into the biggest pitch of her career-only to find Ethan Kade, the boy she once trusted, sitting at the head of the table. No longer the reckless business student she knew, he's a ruthless CEO with a gaze as sharp as his suit. Aria: "We're here for business, nothing else." Ethan: "Then why are you still holding your breath?" Every meeting becomes a battlefield, every word a calculated strike. She wants to win the deal. He wants to win against her. But between late-night strategy sessions and dangerously close arguments, the line between hate and something far more dangerous begins to blur. Ethan: "I'm not here to win, Aria. I'm here to make sure you lose." Aria: "Guess I'm harder to kill than your ego." Some grudges never die. Some desires never fade. And this time, the stakes are more than just business-because losing might mean giving up the one thing they swore they'd never want again. And some second chances might cost more than either is willing to pay.

Dear Olive, I hate you. I hate that you were born and that your human and have a face. I hate that you live next door to me and I hate that I can't sleep at night because the thought of you has forever left a vivid image creased in the back of my mind. And most of all, I hate that you hate me. Hate, Everest Since the first grade when Olivia Kingston and her family moved in right across the street from Kyle Everest, he had believed to have instantly hated her. (At least thats how he tells the story) And maybe it was just because of the mere fact of her existence, or maybe it was that time she ate the last fruit snack at lunch, or let's not forget, in fifth grade she stole his partner in crime, being his twin sister Madeline. Now being 17 years old Kyle Everest still holds this unknown resentment against his next door neighbor Olivia Kingston, and torches her in any possible way he can, but what would happen when Olivia finally gets sick of letting Kyle torcher her unexplainably? Everything would change in the matter of one day when Olivia accidentally gets them both locked in the principals office in search of the same thing: The truth. But while staying together in a cramped room with no phones and surviving off nothing but the secret stash of their principal, while the entire schools is off on spring break, secrets will be told and feeling will unravel. And let's not forget, hate letters will be sent. This book may seem light and fun but it has some mature scenes and dark thoughts that I'd suggest for viewers 16+Complete
