HATE YOU LATER by CIARA BLUME

Pet boutique owner Georgia and businessman Hudson are keeping secrets. They're both impersonating their pets online in an anonymous chat, blissfully unaware that Hudson is about to shut Georgia's dreams down.

Perfect for fans of You've Got Mail, this enemies-to-lovers rom-com has fangs, claws, and all the warm fuzzies.

Georgia's landlords just raised the rent on her shop, straight through the leaky roof. Someone’s pirating her products and she's bleeding cash. If she loses her business, the pet shelter she subsidizes will close permanently and all her furry friends will be out on the street. Or worse. People and pets are counting on her.

What's a pet activist to do?

As a self-sufficient former foster kid and head of her found family, asking her friends and family for help is hard. It feels like weakness to Georgia. Accepting help from strangers? Out of the question. She'll just have to figure something out. Something like... turning her dog Cookie into a major pet influencer. It could happen, right?

But Georgia's landlord has other ideas. The flak his family is taking for evicting the pet shelter is proving to be quite the PR problem.

Hudson Holm's offer to host a fundraiser to save the shelter, along with his family's reputation seems like a real win-win. But there's something sketchy about the deal. How can she trust a guy who ambles into her pet boutique and peels off six hundo on her handmade cat costumes, like it's nothing to him?

Who does that? There has to be a catch...

Thank goodness she has Oliver. her anonymous online chat buddy to confide in. His avatar is a grumpy Persian cat but Georgia can’t stop fantasizing about who’s really on the other side of that conversation.
