We Shouldn't Be Together: Hate-to-Love Forced Proximity Soccer Sports Romance

By Milly Rose

Book Overview

She's the enemy... So why do I want to save her?

I hate Tabitha Jones. The preppy gossip queen humiliated my best friend, and now she's my lab partner. When my protest for reassignment fails, I vow to make her as miserable as she makes everyone else. Naturally, we end up in detention-worthy arguments instead of finishing our chemistry assignment.

Failing isn't an option-I can't risk my spot as soccer team captain. So, I reluctantly agree to study with her after school. When I storm out of our first session, we resort to texting. Without those stupid chocolatey curls and pouty lips distracting me, we might actually get some work done.

But something weird happens. Our snarky messages turn into flirty banter, and I start seeing a different side of her. She's not just mean-she's hurting. Tabitha admits her so-called friends treat her like garbage, and her attitude is a defense mechanism. She's bullied worse than anyone realizes.

Now, I'm stuck. Do I risk my friendship to protect the girl I swore to hate? And even if I do, can we survive the fallout when no one wants us together?

This slow burn, sweet and clean enemies-to-lovers romance is dual POV and will have you rooting for them to stop fighting and start falling.

We Shouldn't Be Together is the first book in a trilogy of interconnected standalone romances set in Ashworth Academy. This first book is set weeks before the events of Shy Girls Can't Date Frenemies by Milly Rose
