What
happens when you start falling for your worst enemy? Fans of Abbi
Glines and Monica Murphy will relish this addictive novel of
smoking-hot seduction—and revenge gone so wrong, it’s right.
I wasn’t always this jaded. I had a clear head, things I wanted out of life, and a concise plan on how to get there. For being only twenty-one, I pretty much had it all figured out. Until the day my cousin died.
I spent months going over all the details surrounding her death, trying to figure out how I missed the signs, and the only thing I could come up with was she would still be alive if it wasn’t for one person: her professor. So I transferred to his college, enrolled in his class, and set my new plan in motion.
First I’ll seduce him. Then I’ll ruin him. I’ve just got to stay strong and not let his charm and my emotions get the best of me. Because someone has to pay for her death. If it’s the last thing I do, I’m going to break Noah.

Excerpt
I
stare down at my bland cafeteria lunch, my breathing erratic. It took
forever, but I finally found a table away from the prying, curious
eyes of the other students . . . where I can sit and eat . . . alone.
Not that I’m hungry, though. I’m too anxious to eat . . . too
worked up. I’m sure anyone close enough to hear my accelerated
breathing and my heart pounding away faster than the drum line would
think I’ve completely lost my mind—but I don’t care. Now that
I’m here, this whole thing has suddenly become real. I’m more
shocked that I was able to channel my inner Karly and remain calm and
collected. I send a silent prayer thanking her for the strength to
get through my first class with him.
I’m
actually doing this. Months of planning and I’m actually at
Northwestern, in his class, living out my calculated plan of revenge
on the person I hate more than anyone else in this world; the person
who stole my best friend . . . my cousin . . . right out from under
me without any warning at all.
Noah
Bain.
Even
his name makes me feel sick. I’m honestly surprised I was able to
be so close to him—alone with him—for more than a few minutes
without ramming a pencil through his eye. But death would be too
easy. He needs to pay for his mistake. I just need to figure out the
best way to go about this. There really are a lot of options. Maybe
I’ll just sit back and let the situation work itself out, and if he
turns out to be the creep I know he is, he’ll play right into my
trap and half the work will be done for me.
I
push my tray across the table, unable to stand the sight of food
right now. I need just a little while to calm down. I hate that he’s
being so nice to me. It doesn’t change anything, though. This
morning, before I actually laid eyes on him, there was just a small
spark. Now, after having heard his voice, I can picture him saying
all those things to lure Karly, then trying to break her. Who am I
kidding? He didn’t just try, he succeeded. And now that tiny spark
has turned into a flame so large it’s capable of engulfing me
whole.
I’m
going to destroy him . . . it’s the one thing I can do to try to
get some justice for Karly. I’ll be sure she comes out the winner.
He doesn’t get to live his happy little life while she’s rotting
away in a box six feet under. She deserves more.
