Loathed Love
COBALT EMPIRE BOOK 3
Audrey Cobalt never expected a lie to land her between two men: the quiz bowl captain she wants and the bad-boy musician she hates.
The youngest of an accomplished family, Audrey Cobalt has spent her life chasing good grades and fantasizing over happily-ever-afters. Now fresh off to college and living with her older brothers, she’s determined to prove that New York City is where she’s fated to be.
Unfortunately…her dream life starts with a lie.
Guy Abernathy is cutthroat, ambitious, and the handsome captain of Manhattan Valley University’s prestigious quiz bowl team. He’s everything Audrey has always wanted.
Birdie St. Pierre is not.
He’s sharp-tongued, abrasive, and the hot musical prodigy who hates rich, spoiled heiresses. Tragic, since Birdie is her new tutor—and her only shot at staying on the quiz bowl team.
Whom does Audrey truly loathe, and whom does she truly love? It could be a Shakespearean mess if she finds out too late.
