Better hate than never - chloe liese

Childhood enemies discover the fine line between love and loathing in this heartfelt reimagining of Shakespeares The Taming of the Shrew .

Katerina Wilmot and Christopher Petruchio shared backyards as kids, but as adults they wont 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 friends and families pleas for peace, Christopher is unconvinced Kate would willingly douse the flames of their enmity.

But when a drunken Kate confesses shes only been hostile because she thought he hated her, Christopher vows to make peace with Kate once and for all.

Tempting as it is to be swept away by her nemesis-turned-gentleman, Kate isnt sure she can trust his charming good-guy act.

When Christophers persistence and Kates curiosity lead to an impassioned kiss, they realize peace is the last thing that will ever be possible between them.

As desire gives way to deeper feelings, Kate and Christopher must decide if its truly better to hate than to never risk their hearts--or if they already gave them away long ago.
