Jahtavian Nichols is a cancer. The toxic, slow-growing kind you never see coming until it's too late. He's a playboy with one goal: to seduce as many women as possible, especially if they are friends. Ten years ago, he used me and threw me away. He deceived me. Humiliated me. Made me swear off love.Everyone else may have let it go, but I haven't forgotten... or forgiven him. In fact, I'm going to make sure he never does anything like that again.

You see, I'm not the same delicate, shy wallflower he hit and forgot. I was an easy target before. I couldn't see a red flag from a mile away. I will get the revenge I've always craved. Because this time? I won't be the one being used. I'll be the one taking what I want from him.

I've spent the last decade formulating my borderline-obsessed plan. Sweet revenge is the name of the game now, and Jah is my prey. I move in next door to him with two things in mind: seduce and scheme. I won't fall victim to his bedroom eyes or get mystified by his charm. I'll make him pay, even if it breaks me twice.
