Bookstore owner and recluse Smith never meant to hurt Alice all those years ago...he just panicked. But now she's back and their lives are intertwined again. Maybe this time round things will be different? Maybe this time round they'll both let their guard down.
A steamy enemies-to-lovers romance told in dual POV with spice, a possessive antihero, and a happily ever after.
