I might be the only person not obsessed with Simon Luckwood, famous actor and the newest resident of my little hometown.

I don’t trust the way he’s always smiling. No one smiles that much. 

And I’m clearly missing something, because I don’t get why the character Simon played on his weird hit TV show is so popular.

But revenge is a dish best served cold, just like the dishes on the menu at the restaurant my ex stole from me. So, when Simon feels guilty enough about his twin teenage boys accidentally getting me arrested that he wants to take me out on an apology date?

I see a perfect opportunity to get mine. 

One night, one date, one very loud public scene at my ex’s grand opening, and then I can wash my hands of men forever

That’s exactly how it has to go. Because my life can’t handle one more plot twist…

The Spite Date is a riotously fun opposites attract romance featuring a golden retriever celebrity who needs to get out of his own way, a woman trying to live her best life even if she’s not sure exactly how to do that, and a series of plans gone very, very wrong. It stands alone and comes with a sweetly satisfying happily ever after.
