the ol·ive the·o·ry n.: determining the success or potential success of a relationship by whether one person in the relationship loves olives while the other person hates them
Matt King absolutely hates olives. One night while watching his favorite show, How I Met Your Mother, he orders a pizza. When it's delivered, it has—gasp—olives on it, but delivering the pizza was no other than fellow rival for valedictorian and classmate, Ava Kennedy. After filing a complaint for the mix-up with pizzas, Ava loses her job. Wanting revenge, she goes to Matt demanding a compromise; he has to drop out his running spot for valedictorian in return for the loss of her job. But instead, Matt says that he'll help Julia with her almost-B in P.E. to keep her straight-A's. Can they set aside their differences to get what they want?

Now, she was stuck, married to a man she absolutely abhorred for two months and a half and she couldn't do anything about it. It didn't help that she had been celibate for nearly a year and that he is still just as sinfully good looking as he was the last time she'd seen him. Will the lies, hatred and the arguing worsen or will everything take a complete turn in another direction, one London never anticipated?Complete
