Like You Hate Me
by Bethany Winters
Well, fuck you Bethany for keeping me awake till 5 AM and making me fall in love with these toxic horny mfs!
The way this book held me and didn't let me go until I finished it should be studied. I don't know what Bethany put in it, but it was addictive.
Nate and Xavi, good lord, they couldn't have been more toxic, but the love they had for each other was present every second; they just refused to see it. I loved loved loved the way the relationship, the secrets, the history behind them were shown to us.
Xavi, my sweet, hurt boy. He has gone through so much and always alone, until he had Katy, but then he didn't, and he was more lonely than before, if possible. He made the hard choice of keeping living, living for Katy, and not only surviving like he had been doing. I absolutely lived for him getting through to Nate, his interactions with Easton and Carter, and his irrational hate-to-love relationship with Frankie. Bethany wrote such a beautiful found family, I couldn't get enough of it.
And Nate, you deserve a punch and a hate fuck...which I get you give instead of reciving, but whatever. He was so unreasonably hot, his hot and cold behavior should have made me hate him but like any toxic red flag man he had that something that made you come back despite yourself. He was so determined to not let Xavi in, but joke's on him, Xavi HAD been in for years, he just refused to see it. The flashbacks, the little looks, the possessiveness, the longing, all of it made me love this man and I won't apologize for it.
I can't wait and see where the rest of the housemates (family really) end up. Bethany, you've written my new favorite series. Thank you!
Quotes:
I hate how hot he is.
I hate how hot he makes me as I swirl my finger
around the metal.
I want him beneath me and I'm done pretending otherwise. At least for right now.
My teeth latch onto his bottom lip as I walk him over to the bed, sucking on his lip ring the way I've thought about doing since the first time I saw it on him.
That was years ago.
Years, I've wanted this.
But with Xavi...
I could stare at his pretty lips stretched around the base of me all night.
The way I feel about him...that's not the alcohol. It's all me.
With our foreheads touching and our moans mixing together, I pull out and get rid of the condom, jerking my release onto his cock and abs, dirtying him up and marking him again.
I decide to sit in my car and wait for him to show up like the stalker he's turned me into. I like watching him.
Yeah. He can be pissed all he wants. He's still mine.
"Bend over for me so I can eat this pretty ass."
"You love walking around with my cum in your clothes, don't you? Feeling me every time you move..."
I love that he's playing with me like this, dragging it out like he's just as desperate as I am to make it last.
I hate him, but I can't stay away from him.
The way I'm pulled toward him...I'm fucking powerless to stop it.
I love it when he acts like this, like he's obsessed with me and needs to keep his hands on some part of me at all times.
"I didn't realize before you left last night but I...I'm not letting you go. I can't do it. The thought of you walking away from me for good, finding some other guy and being with him instead of me..." My fingers curl as I picture it, and I cage his head in with my forearms. "I'll never be able to stop chasing you, Xav. I won't sit still or sleep or think about anything else until you're mine again."
I've been hopelessly in love with him since I was fifteen, and unfortunately for me, nothing he does to me can take that away.
"The mistake would be listening to you guys and losing the one person I can't live without."
"Baby, you'd follow me through hell and back if I asked you to."
