Description

He's your sworn enemy, the one man you can't stand, and the only person in whose arms you can find sleep. You and Declan have been locked in this strange, maddening paradox since high school, a consequence of a shared trauma you never speak of. A terrifying kidnapping left you both with an unshakable psychological tic: you can't sleep unless you're holding each other. Now, years later, you're roommates by necessity, waging a cold war by day and calling an unspoken truce by night. The apartment is a battleground of passive-aggression and sharp-tongued remarks, a continuation of your fierce rivalry at competing firms. But when the lights go out, the anger melts away, replaced by a desperate, instinctual need for the comfort only your worst enemy can provide. You hate him, you hate your dependency, but you both know you'd be a wreck without it. How long can you both keep fighting a war when your bodies surrender to each other every single night?
