The Opposite of You
Blurb:
I’ve sworn off men.
All men.
Famous last words, right? You’re expecting some epic tale of reluctant love and my dramatic change of heart? Well, you’re not going to get it.
I’m stubborn. And headstrong. And I’ve just survived the worst three years of my life. After escaping an abusive boyfriend to live in hostels and cheap hotels while I worked my way across Europe, I’ve come to two conclusions.
The first? Now that I’m back home, I’m going to squander my expensive culinary degree on a food truck that caters to the late night drunk crowd.
The second? I’m going to prove to the bastard across the plaza that my street food is better than his fussy five course monstrosities.
Killian Quinn might be Food and Wine’s Chef to Watch Out For. He might have a Michelin Star. He might have every food critic in the city wrapped around his too-large fingers. But he’s also pretentious and unbearably arrogant and the very opposite of me.
So he can keep his unsolicited advice and his late night visits and his cocky smiles. I want none of it. Or him.
I want the opposite.

“I didn’t come here to spy on you.”
His gaze narrowed. “Then why did you come?”
“I needed to see what the fuss was about.”
“And?”
“Don’t tell me you’re one of those guys that needs
his ego coddled?”
He leaned in, brushing his shoulder against mine.
“Every guy is that guy. Don’t single me out.”
I tried not to smile. Really. I gave it my best
effort. “Honestly?”
He pulled back, holding my gaze and nodding. “Why
do you think women always have the power?”

He dropped his head in relief, his forehead
brushing my cheek. “Thank you.”
“I hope your ego recovers,” I joked in an attempt
to untangle us from this spot—figuratively and literally. He was still draped
over me, making all my neglected girly parts wake up and pay attention.
He chuckled, his chest vibrating against mine with
the sound. “My ego is never safe around you, Delane.” Lifting his head, he
caught my gaze and held it. His hands brushed over the counter and over my
hips. For a second I was afraid he was going to start tickling me again, but
then his fingertips dipped beneath my white t-shirt and his hands wrapped around
my waist instead. “Thank you for removing the review.”
“You already said that,” I whispered, nervous and
excited and confused all at once.
“I mean it though.” The corners of his mouth lifted
in a sincere smile. “I just wanted you to know.”
All I could do was blink. I knew he was going to
kiss me. I just knew it. About Rachel Higginson:
