After her office burns down a successful editor is forced to share a workspace with the most irritating man alive and a different kind of fire ignites between them.
****
Chielozonam 'Elo' Williams is thriving.
Not only does she have the job of her dreams she's about to make Acquiring Editor of PerfectRomance, the publishing imprint she's been working at for the past five years which would definitely prove to her judgmental father once and for all that he was wrong about her wasting her life away at a dead end job but she's also determined to enjoy the prime years of her youth.
Endless fun and casual romps in the sheets are the name of the game.
That is until the unthinkable happens.
After Elo's building catches fire and burns down she has no choice but to share an office with the one person that makes her blood boil: Connor Price.
Archenemies since their days at college Connor makes getting under her skin an art form with his well-timed scathing remarks and contemptible behavior.
It's not long before they're locked in a battle of wits, neither willing to back down or give up.
When they have to work together to acquire a potentially lucrative manuscript, they are forced to put aside their long-standing animosity for an adventure that will change everything they thought they knew about each other.
PEOPLE WE MEET ON VACATION meets ANYONE BUT YOU meets THE HATING GAME in this contemporary rom-com about resilience, self-discovery and two sworn enemies who can't decide whether to kiss or kill each other.
An ONC 2026 story inspired by prompt 40.
You and your greatest enemy are struck by a curse that binds your lives together. The only way to survive is to share a kiss, but you would both rather face death than each other.
