Messing Around: A Small Town Romantic Comedy

I bite my tongue, staring him down with the force of twelve years of pent-up hatred. He stares right back, those blue eyes crackling with amusement. Damn him for laughing at me.
Still.

Logan Miller is single-handedly responsible for ruining my life.
Tackling me with the force of a professional football team. Spreading rumors at school.
That one thing I won’t mention.
Ever since the eighth grade I’ve been known as The Panted Lady because of his evil antics.
Turns out, twelve years isn’t long enough to get over my hatred for that jerk.
And to think, we used to be friends.
Those days are long gone. Now that I’m jobless, broke, and living with my terrible match-making mother again, I’ve got nothing better to do than exact revenge on an old enemy.
But when Logan has the gall to start flirting with me, you can bet things are about to get messy.

Logan
Liz Clements is back in town, and she’s just as feisty as I remember her.
I’d forgotten how much fun it was to push her buttons.
She turns everything into a competition, and I’m never one to turn down a challenge.
Especially when that challenge involves a twelve-year-old feud and a woman who fights dirty.
But this time, fighting with Liz feels more like fighting for her.
Having her back in my life makes everything more interesting, and I don't want to lose her again.
If there’s one thing I know about that woman, it’s that she appreciates a good battle.
So that’s exactly what I’m going to give her.
And then I’m going to do what I should have done all those years ago.
Make her mine.
