Hard Feelings

About this book

Cecily Hampton and Dominic Bellinger’s first date ends in a disaster of assumptions, leading Cecily to vow she will never see him again. Fate, however, has other plans when they are both forced into attendance at a mutual friend’s celebration in Las Vegas. What starts as a weekend defined by simmering resentment and sharp insults quickly spirals into a chaotic, tequila-fueled mistake: they wake up married. Before they can file for an annulment, a sudden family crisis intervenes. Cecily’s grandmother makes a final wish to embark on an Arizona road trip with her family—and she expects Cecily’s new "husband" to join them. Trapped in a luxury motor coach with a man she’s determined to hate, Cecily is forced to navigate complex family dynamics alongside an increasingly complicated attraction to Dom. This enemies-to-lovers road trip romance is packed with witty banter, hilarious mishaps—from haunted hotels to accidental nudist colony visits—and deep emotional stakes. As the miles stack up, the barrier between their feigned annoyance and genuine desire begins to crumble. What was meant to be a temporary, drunken accident quickly evolves into something far more permanent as they discover that their "hard feelings" might just be the foundation for forever.
