Theyâre not quite enemies. Not really friends. More like frustrated balls of sexual tension and neither will give in.Lance Gibson drives Mariah Malarkey absolutely crazy. He uses her office like a phone booth, takes cupcakes from the corner of her desk like she baked them just for him. She didnât. Maybe she knew the history teacher happened to love peanut butter icing, but that was purely a coincidence. All sixteen times.Mariah has a way of getting under Lanceâs skin too. She calls him out on his crap, spoils him even if inadvertently, and seeing the librarian in skirts drives him wild. She wonât give in. Itâs for the best, really, considering thereâs no way he could lie to a woman like that and heâs not about to tell her the truth about himself. Not in a million years.These two donât hate each other. They donât really like each other. But for this to be a friends-to-lovers story, they have to start somewhere, right?
Note: This can be read as a standalone novel. Available in Kindle Unlimited. Audio coming soon.

Excerpt:
âLet me be clear about one thing âŠâ
âNo, let me be clear about one thing,â I say, whirling through the doors of my office, my voice leading the way. âGet out of my office, Lance. Now.â
Shoulders thrown back, lips pressed together just as firmly as my arms clench across my breasts, I say a silent prayer my demonstration is enough to convince him I mean business. Then, I do what I always do: brace for his attack.
His free hand clasps the back of his neck, toying with the edges of his hairline, which is sharp from a fresh cut at the barber shop. He runs his palm around the side of his throat as he releases a low, amused chuckle. âJessa, Iâm going to have to call you back.â
âYou donât have to call her back,â I say, aware my voice is projecting a few octaves louder than usual or necessary. âYou just have to take it somewhere else.â
Three.
Two.
One.
The bastard turns to face me, his full lips twisted into an undeniable smirk.
Bingo.
His shot is fired.
âIâm at work,â he says into the phone. He may be talking to her, but thereâs no doubt his attention is set on me. Gaze searing into mine, the heaviness making it hard to breathe, he swipes his bottom lip with a slow, single stroke. The wetness left in its wake seems to somehow make its way between my thighs.
Damn it.
Every morning when I pull into the staff parking lot, I tell myself itâll be different. This is the day I wonât let Lance Gibsonâs patented way of getting to me work. That he wonât quiet me with his smirk, immobilize me with his big green eyes, and twist me into a knot with his crude words delivered with the punch of a professional.
Of course, Iâm also saying these things while balancing a tray of baked goodies I think heâll love. I hate myself for that almost as much as I hate that Iâll be stripping myself of my panties in the ladiesâ room between study halls because heâs so goddamn sexy and I canât bear to feel them soaked between my thighs for the rest of the day.
