Our Afterlight January theme is . . . SPITE ME!
All’s fair in love and spite, especially when you live next door to an infuriating jerk.
Our January Afterlight book is an adult standalone contemporary romance! When a young woman’s engagement abruptly ends, she moves into the house she recklessly brought as a wedding gift. The problem? Her neighbour is uptight, judgemental . . . and her ex-fiance’s brother. She decides to take advantage of the situation by annoying her new neighbour at every possibility, but when he surprises her by being nothing but kind, she starts to find that hating him is a lot harder than anticipated.

- Full colour printing on the hardback (by @bogus_katya)
