Hate and Desire

Torie Grace

There are thin lines between love and hate, between passion and anger-lines that can blur so easily, you don't even realize when you've crossed them. For Ava Kensington, the line had been crossed long ago. She had always believed that her relationship with Ethan Blackwood was toxic, even from the start. He was everything she had been taught to stay away from-arrogant, impulsive, and more than a little dangerous. Yet, there was something about him that drew her in, like a moth to a flame.

They had met years ago, at a party neither of them should have attended. What started as a chance encounter quickly escalated into something far darker. Their chemistry was undeniable-each interaction charged with a volatile mix of hatred and desire that neither could escape. He was the kind of man who could make her blood boil with a single word, yet at the same time, stir something inside her that she couldn't ignore. It was the kind of connection that shouldn't have worked-but somehow, it did.

For years, they circled each other-arguing, teasing, tempting, and pushing each other to the edge. Ava swore she hated Ethan, swore she wanted nothing to do with him. And yet, every time their paths crossed, every time they spoke, her pulse quickened. Every insult was an invitation, every glance a challenge. She couldn't deny the desire that flared between them, no matter how hard she tried to push it down.

But hatred, as it turns out, is just love in disguise-until it isn't.

One night, everything changed. A confrontation that started as an argument escalated into something neither of them could walk away from. Secrets were exposed. Boundaries were crossed. And suddenly, Ava found herself trapped in a world where the lines between hate and desire were no longer clear.

Now, as Ethan and Ava are forced to confront the ugly truths of their past and the burning chemistry that still exists between them, they must decide: Can they find a way to turn their hatred into something more? Or will their need for each other tear them apart once and for all?

In a world of passion and animosity, love is never easy. And for Ava and Ethan, hate and desire may be the only things they can trust.
