The Shop Next Door
Overview
All she wants is to open up her dream bookshop.
All he wants is her.
Jessa Alden never imagined that the grand opening of her dream bookshop, The Prologue, would be ruined by a neighboring shop hosting its own grand opening on the very same day. Even worse? The owner of that obnoxiously loud gamer cafe turns out to be none other than Liam Ashford. Her former best friend. Her former rival. The only man who could ever make her heart race.
Liam Ashford is everything that Jessa can't handle-effortlessly charming, annoyingly attractive, and entirely too good at getting under her skin. And now he's back in town, setting up shop right beside her like the past never happened.
Jessa wants him gone. Liam is surprisingly agreeable with that request-but only on one condition. A year-long reignition of their rivalry. If she wins, he's as good as gone. If he wins... That's not an option.
The harder Jessa fights to beat him, the harder it becomes to ignore the sparks that still simmer beneath every argument, the lingering looks, and the way he can still make her pulse race. Somewhere along the way, Jessa realizes that maybe the real risk isn't losing to Liam. It's admitting why losing him feels so much worse.
