Bitter Rival

Spending the summer on a vineyard sounds idyllic. Unfortunately, my California dream comes with strings attached—forced proximity with the rude, arrogant Beckett Heyward.

The world’s grumpiest billionaire loathes me and okay, I get it, I'm the daughter of his sworn enemy. But it’s not my fault his father bequeathed me half of the Sutton Ridge estate.

Not that we actually own it yet. First, we have to meet the conditions—to live and work on the vineyard for three consecutive months. Together.

God help me. I don't know how I'll survive three seconds under the scrutiny of his piercing blue gaze let alone three months.

What do I care if my childhood crush looks sinfully delicious without a shirt and wields an axe like a sexy lumberjack? The only time Prince Charmless fulfils my fantasies is in my dreams.

Until one night at a local bar changes everything. Suddenly, our sparring starts to feel like foreplay, his cruel mask slips, and before I know it, he's making me swoon and beg for more.

But falling for my bitter rival would be a huge mistake. I'm intent on saving the vineyard; he's on a mission to wreak vengeance. If I’m not careful, he’ll end up destroying me in the process.

Too bad I’ve never played it safe.

Bitter Rival is an enemies to lovers, grumpy/sunshine, slow burn, romantic standalone with all the banter and steam, ending in an HEA.
