Hate brought them together. Love will break down their walls.
In this enthralling anthology of dark romance short stories, hatred is the spark that lights the flame. From bitter rivalries to deeply buried grudges, these enemies are bound by animosity—until the walls they’ve built around their hearts begin to crumble.Each story unravels a tale of sharp-tongued banter, simmering tension, and the fierce burn of loathing transformed into undeniable desire. As enemies discover shared truths and unexpected vulnerabilities, they’ll be forced to confront the feelings they’ve fought so hard to deny.
In Hate Mates, every couple walks a knife’s edge between fury and passion, mistrust and surrender. But in the shadows of their darkest emotions lies the promise of something deeper—if they’re brave enough to reach for it.
With high-stakes betrayal, scorching chemistry, and hearts that beat faster when danger is near, these enemies find themselves trapped in battles they cannot afford to lose—and passions they cannot deny.
Dare to play their games—if you’re brave enough to face the dark side of love.
This steamy volume of stories is perfect for readers who crave tension, passion, and the irresistible allure of enemies who can’t stay apart.
