Chloe Liese | Author-Reader Match: BETTER HATE THAN NEVER

October 10, 2023

Instead of trying to find your perfect match in a dating app, we bring you the “Author-Reader Match” where we introduce you to authors you may fall in love with. It’s our great pleasure to present Chloe Liese!

Writes:

Chloe writes contemporary romances affirming her belief that everyone deserves a love story. Her stories pack a punch of heat, heart, and humor, and often feature characters who are neurodivergent like herself.

About:

Chloe enjoys walks in nature, the smell of new books, and the sound of rain. She takes her coffee hot and black, and is both a dog and cat person.

 

What I’m looking for in my ideal reader match:

  • enemies to lovers
  • steamy slow burn romance
  • feisty banter and simmering tension
  • characters with real-life conditions like neurodivergence and chronic illness
  • rom-com laughs and comedic hijinks paired with emotional depth and sensual physical intimacy

What to expect if we’re compatible:

  • tearing through an interconnected standalone series (once you finish the Wilmots, there are 6 Bergman Brothers to read!)
  • a heightened appreciation for the payoff of prolonged sensual tension in slow-burns
  • a newfound love of dirty talk nicknames and cute, romantic nicknames

BETTER HATE THAN NEVER by Chloe Liese

Better Hate than Never

Childhood enemies discover the fine line between love and loathing in this heartfelt reimagining of Shakespeare’s The Taming of the Shrew.

Katerina Wilmot and Christopher Petruchio shared backyards as kids, but as adults they won’t even share the same hemisphere. That is, until Kate makes a rare visit home, and their fiery animosity rekindles into a raging inferno.

Despite their friends’ and families’ pleas for peace, Christopher is unconvinced Kate would willingly douse the flames of their enmity. But when a drunken Kate confesses she’s only been hostile because she thought he hated her, Christopher vows to make peace with Kate once and for all. Tempting as it is to be swept away by her nemesis-turned-gentleman, Kate isn’t sure she can trust his charming good-guy act.

When Christopher’s persistence and Kate’s curiosity lead to an impassioned kiss, they realize “peace” is the last thing that will ever be possible between them. As desire gives way to deeper feelings, Kate and Christopher must decide if it’s truly better to hate than to never risk their hearts—or if they already gave them away long ago.
