Synopsis

I loathe Micah Reed. Yet, I can't keep my eyes off him. Years ago, he opened his mouth in a room full of our peers. Said nine words and ruined my life. My high school crush did exactly that... crushed me. But I am no longer the quiet, loner girl from high school. The girl who let others trample her spirit. Now, I take charge. Stand tall. Bend to no one. Never again. Especially Micah Reed. Peyton Alexander makes me question my sanity. Yet, I refuse to stop antagonizing her. Since her first day at work, she has given me the death glare. Lipped off and verbally slapped me. And every night, I go back for another round. Not sure what I did to deserve her animosity, but I plan to find out. Plan to fix whatever mistake I made. Although I live for her banter, I want more with Peyton. The attention she gives other men, I want it for myself. Call me presumptuous, but Peyton Alexander will be mine. Micah wants me because I don't fall for his charms. Peyton resists to deny herself the truth. Will he figure out who I am? Will she ever let me in?
