Sharing a summer house with a hot-as-hell roommate should be a dream come true, right?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Not when it\u2019s Justin\u2026the only person I\u2019d ever loved\u2026who now hates me.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
When my grandmother died and left me half of the house on Aquidneck Island, there was a catch: the other half would go to the boy she helped raise.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The same boy who turned into the teenager whose heart I broke years ago.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The same teenager who\u2019s now a man with a hard body and a hardass personality to match.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I hadn\u2019t seen him in years, and now we\u2019re living together because neither one of us is willing to give up the house.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The worst part? He didn\u2019t come alone.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I\u2019d soon realize there\u2019s a thin line between love and hate. I could see through that smug smile. Beneath it all\u2026the boy is still there. So is our connection.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The problem is\u2026now that I can\u2019t have Justin, I\u2019ve never wanted him more.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":745,"template":"","format":[21,19,20],"meta":{"_acf_changed":true,"_kad_blocks_custom_css":"","_kad_blocks_head_custom_js":"","_kad_blocks_body_custom_js":"","_kad_blocks_footer_custom_js":"","_kadence_starter_templates_imported_post":false,"_kad_post_transparent":"","_kad_post_title":"","_kad_post_layout":"","_kad_post_sidebar_id":"","_kad_post_content_style":"","_kad_post_vertical_padding":"","_kad_post_feature":"","_kad_post_feature_position":"","_kad_post_header":false,"_kad_post_footer":false},"series":[26],"trope":[64,66,68,67],"writtenby":[16],"acf":[],"taxonomy_info":{"series":[{"value":26,"label":"Standalones"}],"trope":[{"value":64,"label":"Angsty"},{"value":66,"label":"Close Proximity"},{"value":68,"label":"Enemies to Lovers"},{"value":67,"label":"Friends to Lovers"}],"format":[{"value":21,"label":"Ebook"},{"value":19,"label":"Audiobook"},{"value":20,"label":"Paperback"}],"writtenby":[{"value":16,"label":"Penelope Ward"}]},"featured_image_src_large":["https:\/\/penelopewardauthor.com\/clds-staging\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/02\/ROOMHATE-679x1024.jpg",679,1024,true],"author_info":[],"comment_info":"","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/penelopewardauthor.com\/clds-staging\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/books\/394"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/penelopewardauthor.com\/clds-staging\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/books"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/penelopewardauthor.com\/clds-staging\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/books"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/penelopewardauthor.com\/clds-staging\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/745"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/penelopewardauthor.com\/clds-staging\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=394"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"series","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/penelopewardauthor.com\/clds-staging\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/series?post=394"},{"taxonomy":"trope","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/penelopewardauthor.com\/clds-staging\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/trope?post=394"},{"taxonomy":"format","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/penelopewardauthor.com\/clds-staging\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/format?post=394"},{"taxonomy":"writtenby","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/penelopewardauthor.com\/clds-staging\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/writtenby?post=394"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
