Hate you harder

An Enemies-to-Lovers, Brother's Best Friend, Forced Proximity Romance

About the book

Griffin Calloway was the ultimate thorn in Claire Ryan’s side. Claire didn’t care that he was her brother’s best friend. She didn’t care that he tried to apologize for hurting her years ago. All Claire cared about was getting over the snarky, tattooed, incredibly talented annoyance of a man who was about to start a national tour with his rock band.


Griffin Calloway was tired of apologizing to his best friend’s little sister for something that happened years ago. However, Claire could hold a grudge like no one else, and her icy demeanor was here to stay. That was, until a drunken night filled with tequila and dopamine shattered a barrier that the two had put up years ago… Just an accidental double-tap that put a crack in a hatred-filled foundation.


And then, as fate would have it, Claire joins the band on their tour as their social media manager, meaning Griffin would always be just a few feet away. Always.


As the tour starts, Claire and Griffin find themselves in situations they shouldn’t, bringing to light feelings beneath the surface that may have really never been that deep to start. Through shows across the country, stolen glances, heated nights, explosive arguments, and a sort of comfort you find with someone you’re truly meant to be with, Claire and Griffin begin to reconnect in ways they soon realize were inevitable from the beginning.


Can Claire and Griffin put aside their animosity for the person they really love? Will the start of a secret romance jeopardize Claire’s relationship with her brother and Griffin’s relationship with his best friend? Hate You Harder is a story about love, forgiveness, and the dangers of stalking your best friend’s little sister’s social media page with tequila in your system.
