Because nothing says “tension” like insults, lingering eye contact, and an almost-kiss in a hallway.
At Romanceaholic, love is best served with a healthy dose of competition, a touch of contempt, and perhaps a few bruised egos.
So tell us, who’s the one person you’d die before admitting you dream about?
a. A rival coworker going for the same promotion
He finishes your sentences to annoy you. You mock his tie. He critiques your coffee order. HR has received complaints (from both of you), but also… You definitely kissed in the supply closet last Friday.
b. A prince from the rival kingdom
You were raised to hate him. You still do… mostly. But when he calls you “little warrior” in that stupid accent and looks at you like you’re the only person in the ballroom? Treason never sounded so tempting.
c. A fellow student at your elite academy who always outshines you
He’s top of the class, smug as hell, and acts like he invented intelligence. You hate how perfect his notes are. You also hate how good he looks when he’s reading. You’ll outscore him. Or date him. TBD.
d. A detective trying to catch you in a lie you definitely told
He knows you’re guilty. You know he’s obsessed. You toy with him, he interrogates you, and somewhere between “confess” and “prove it,” you realize this is… kinda hot? Justice can wait.
Drop your letter in the comments and tag your favorite enemies-to-lovers book that ruined you. Let’s celebrate that slow-burn, high-stakes chaos we live for.
