From New York Times Bestselling author Corinne Michaels comes an Arrowood-Hennington crossover next generation novella.
No one makes my blood boil like Cayden Hennington.When I finished second in my class in law school, he finished first.We interned at the same firm—he got hired while I didn’t.Now we’re opposing counsel on my first big solo case, and I refuse to lose to him.
I will not think about the way his lips taste or how he makes my heart race. I won’t dream of that night we argued until our clothes came off.
That night is irrelevant because I am over him.(I’m also lying to myself).
However, we’re both professionals, right?Wrong.One stupid drink is all it takes after six hours of intense negotiations to find myself right back in his arms and in a world of trouble.
There is a thin line between love and hate, and we are destined to choose a side.

A cross-over Arrowood Brothers and Hennington novella.
Ellie and Connor’s daughter (Arrowood Brothers series) Hadley is a lawyer in New York City. Her current case pits her against her former college classmate and arch nemesis Cadley, son of Presley and Zach (Hennington Brothers series). Their sparring over the case reignites the passion they had one night back in college resulting in both of them having to re-evaluate what they feel is important in their lives and going after what they want.
I’ll admit, it took me a minute to figure out the logistics of whose kids these were. But after that, I enjoyed this too quick trip back to Sugarloaf and Bell Buckle. Cadley and Hadley deal with the scars from their parents’ pasts, which shaped their adult relationships. It took a minute for both of them to get out of their own way, but once they did the Arrowoods and Henningtons made sure this couple got their HEA.
I wished this was a full-length book. It felt like there could have been so much more for this couple before they got their HEA. I’ll keep my fingers crossed that maybe one of the Arrowood/Hennigton offspring get one.
