Ex-Rivals by Zoe Lee

Julian Corelli:
After fifteen years, I’m back in Chicago for a new job, with enough sass and charm to power the city forever. There’s two million people here, and only one I never want to see again, so it’s totally fine. Except who do I come face-to-face with on my very first night back? My ex-rival, my ex… nevermind.

Camdon Gaines:
As if getting over a breakup isn’t bad enough, the worst person I’ve ever had the displeasure to know is at my favorite club on guys’ night, laughing with my best friends. He’s still the most infuriating man, but at least I faced him, lost my temper a little, and now it’s case closed.
Except now that we’ve crossed paths once, it’s like we’re cosmically handcuffed together. Everyone else thinks he’s the funniest, cleverest man and they want to be his new bestie. But I know the real Julian – there’s no way I can ever trust him again after what he did to me, even if he’s acting like I’m the one who ruined everything the night of my twenty-first birthday.
