Book excerpt: Lucy Clark has just bought a house with her worst enemy. From the moment Lucy - Miss 'my self-worth comes from setting myself impossible standards of perfection' - meets Zack - Mr 'I'm your infuriatingly laidback yet impossibly ripped new yoga teacher' - it's hate at first sight. So when Zack puts in a competing offer to buy her childhood home, there's no way she's backing down. After losing her business and her best friend in one great margarita-themed disaster, there's no way she's losing her beloved house. Except there's one tiny problem - she can't actually afford it. When Zack suggests they buy the house together, inspiration strikes. Lucy will wear him down, with a never-ending supply of lists and rules, until he's begging for escape. That's until Zack arrives, with his non-existent sleepwear and a ridiculously sincere appreciation for the simple things. Suddenly, Lucy finds herself re-evaluating her own warped priorities. Will living with the enemy end up with Lucy losing her sanity? Or is it true what they say - that there's a thin line between love and hate? An absolutely page-turning, laugh-out-loud rom com, perfect for fans of The Hating Game and The Spanish Love Deception.
