Beyond the Hate by D.E. Haggerty

The only thing worse than a natural disaster? The man offering to help me recover from it.

I don’t care how Eli Raider is a billionaire and has the most beautiful blue eyes I’ve ever seen – eyes I want to drown in while I explore those muscles no man who isn’t an athlete should have – because he’s a Class A Jerk. I want nothing to do with him.

Which is why I turn down his offer of help after a hurricane destroys the brewing facilities at Five Fathoms Brewing.

Matter solved.

Except my interfering wannabe matchmaking friends point out the truth. The brewery can’t survive unless we can brew beer soon and who knows how long it’ll be until we’re up and running again. And I realize I can’t say no.

But make no mistake about it – accepting help from Eli doesn’t mean I forgive him for what he did to me in high school. He can bring me coffee and muffins every morning until the end of time, it won’t change my mind.

Eli Raider is my enemy and nothing he does will change that.

This enemies to lovers, billionaire small town rom com features a heroine who has been holding a grudge for entirely too long, a billionaire who has no idea what he did wrong but still snarks at the woman who hates him, a seal that doesn’t know it’s not a traffic stop, too many mermaid legends to mention, and a group of girlfriends who are considering a career change from brewery owners to matchmakers.

Beyond the Hate is a standalone novel in the Smuggler’s Hideaway series.
