About the product

Featured book: At First Spite by Olivia Dade

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.

The book at a glance:

  • Adult contemporary romance; first in a series of standalones set in the same town
  • M/F romance; plus size FMC; FMC with clinical depression
  • You'll love this if you like... gumpy x sunshine pairings, forced proximity and neighbourly spiteful pranking

About the Author

Olivia Dade grew up an undeniable nerd, prone to ignoring the world around her as she read any book she could find. Her favorites, though, were always, always romances. As an adult, she earned an M.A. in American history and worked in a variety of jobs that required the donning of actual pants: Colonial Williamsburg interpreter, high school teacher, academic tutor, and (of course) librarian. Now, however, she has finally achieved her lifelong goal of wearing pajamas all day as a hermit-like writer and enthusiastic hag. She currently lives outside Stockholm with her delightful family and their ever-burgeoning collection of books.
