James “Bucky” Barnes didn’t move into the apartment building looking for friends—let alone love. All he wanted was a quiet life. A place where no one knew his name, his past, or the monster he used to be. Then he met the woman across the hall. From the very beginning, they get under each other’s skin. Every encounter turns into another argument, every sarcastic remark fuels the next, and neither of them can understand why the other is so impossible to ignore. But as days turn into weeks, the thin line between irritation and something far more dangerous begins to blur. Because sometimes the people who challenge you the most are the ones who see the parts of you everyone else overlooks.
