Sizzling chemistry and tender friendship develops between two childhood rivals in this hilarious rom-com from the author ofย As Seen on TV.
New Yorker Molly Blum knows everything about her lifelong nemesis, Jude Stark. With their families so close, they should have been best friends. Instead, she thinks heโs a too-charming slacker, and he thinks sheโs allergic to fun. After years of one-upping each otherโs pranks (chocolate-dipped cat treats are not as delicious as they appear), one high school joke went too far, and they stopped speaking completely. But now that theyโre supposed to help plan a massive party for their parentsโtogetherโthereโs no better time to resume their war.
And it is on. Only somewhere between all the sniping and harmless hijinks, a reluctant friendship develops, along with an unexpected spark of sexual tension. It might have to do with the fact that sheโs been dating Jude-lookalikes and heโs been dating Molly doppelgangers. Or the fact that neither of them is nearly as horrible as they thought. All Molly and Jude know is that theyโve mastered the art of hating each other. Falling in love, on the other hand, is a whole new battlefield.
