She Hated Him for 2 Years… Then They Had to Win Together

She spent two years hating him. He spent those same two years regretting what he had done. But when their university's future is on the line, these two rivals must do the one thing neither of them ever expected: work together. Emma Hartwell is determined to prove herself as one of the best debaters in the country. Ryan Mercer is the brilliant rival she has never forgiven for stealing her personal story and using it to win a debate. Now, with the National Collegiate Debate Championship approaching, their university has only one choice: send Emma and Ryan as a team or risk losing its debate program forever. Forced to practice together, old resentment turns into unexpected understanding. Beneath Ryan's confidence lies a secret struggle, and beneath Emma's anger lies a hurt she has never truly faced. But their biggest challenge comes when a ruthless rival threatens to expose Ryan's past betrayal in front of hundreds of people. When the truth finally reaches the stage, Emma must decide whether one terrible mistake should define a person forever—and Ryan must prove that regret means nothing unless you choose to do better. Can two enemies become the strongest team in the country? And can the person who broke your trust become the person you trust most?
