Childhood enemiesΒ discover the fine line between love and loathing in this heartfelt reimagining of Shakespeareβs TheΒ Taming of the Shrew.
Katerina Wilmot and Christopher Petruchio shared backyards as kids, but as adults they wonβt even share the same hemisphere. That is, until Kate makes a rare visit home, and their fiery animosity rekindles into a raging inferno.
Despite their friendsβ and families' pleas for peace, Christopher is unconvinced Kate would willingly douse the flames of their enmity. But when a drunken Kate confesses sheβs only been hostile because she thought he hated her, Christopher vowsΒ to make peace with Kate once and for all. Tempting as it is to be swept away by her nemesis-turned-gentleman, Kate isnβt sure she can trust his charming good-guy act.
When Christopherβs persistence and Kateβs curiosity lead to an impassioned kiss, they realize βpeaceβ is the last thing that will ever be possible between them. As desire gives way to deeper feelings, Kate and Christopher must decide if itβs truly better to hate than to never risk their heartsβor ifΒ they already gave them away long ago.
