Description
Falling in love is the ultimate payback in this delightful, breezy romcom about an interior designer who teams up with an enigmatic architect at her firm to get revenge on her ex the only way she knows how: by building a spite house next door
"Filled with sizzling chemistry and delicious revenge, Love at First Spite had me smiling from start to finish. This is one debut you don't want to miss!" —Kate Bromley, author of Talk Bookish to Me
They say living well is the best revenge. But sometimes, spreading the misery seems a whole lot more satisfying. That's interior designer Dani Porter's justification for buying the vacant lot next to her ex-fiancé's house...the house they were supposed to live in together, before he cheated on her with their Realtor. Dani plans to build a vacation rental that will a) mess with his view and his peace of mind and b) prove that Dani is not someone to be stepped on. Welcome to project Spite House.
That plan quickly becomes complicated when Dani is forced to team up with Wyatt Montego, the handsome, haughty architect at her firm, and the only person available to draw up blueprints. Wyatt is terse and stern, the kind of man who eats his sandwich with a knife and fork. But as they spend time together on- and off-site, Dani glimpses something deeper beneath that hard veneer, something surprising, vulnerable, and real. And the closer she gets to her goal, the more she wonders if winning revenge could mean losing something infinitely sweeter...
"Rollickingly, fast-paced... Fans of Emily Henry's tales will enjoy Collins' imaginative rom-com." —Booklist
"Wyatt is the perfect grumpy romance hero with a heart of gold. An enemies-to-friends-to-lovers story that's sure to delight rom-com fans." —Kirkus Reviews

June 1, 2022
After finding her fianc� in bed with their real estate agent, interior designer Dani and two of her friends decide the best way to get on with her life is to get revenge. Purchasing the small property across the street from what was supposed to be her marital home, Dani devises a plan to build the ultimate "spite house" to hide the ex's gorgeous view. Needing an architect to develop the blueprints, she makes a deal with Wyatt Montego, her handsome and haughty work colleague, and soon their relationship changes. Lila Winters exquisitely performs the small cast of characters in Collins's debut, deftly capturing their varied personalities and easily differentiating between each one, regardless of gender or age. She breathes life into the story and keeps listeners wanting more. Slow and sensual. Stumbling and inebriated. Energetic and fun. All are presented in a believable fashion. VERDICT Recommended for fans of contemporary, workplace, rom-com novels featuring protagonists with opposite personalities, such as The Hating Game.--Amanda L. S. Murphy
