The Summer I Destroyed YouElizabeth O'Roark2024

"Destroying other people isn't going to make you feel any better."

"That suggests you've never destroyed an enemy before. It's actually quite fulfilling."

Elliott Springs has small-town values, cobblestone streets, perfect scenery. These are things I don't care about. What I do care about is . . . Revenge.

And no matter how compelling I find Liam Doherty-the guy focused on saving Elliott Springs-I'm going to get it.

LIAM
What do you call a woman who wants to destroy everything you love, yet the sight of her sets you on fire?

Nemesis or future wife . . . and since she can't wait to leave California, I guess I know which one she is. Emerson Hughes wants to be the villain in our town's history, and the more I learn about her past here, the more I understand it.

I wanted to save Elliott Springs.

I think I want to save her even more.
