Love Hazard

A 1001 Dark Nights Standalone

By: Rachel Van Dyken

Narrated by: Monica King, Jack Hesperus

When hate leads to love next door…

My dad is protective. Scratch that. He's like the person who would grab a chair, place it on the lawn, and watch me walk across the street just to deliver an apple. So, when a bet between the rude, good-looking guy across the way becomes a full-on battle, it turns into absolute chaos.

He says my degree is useless and that I'm a rich, spoiled princess. I say he's an idiot who only knows how to fix motorcycles and is incapable of having a clean-shaven face. He gives me a tiara. Thanks. I buy him a razor. Perfect. He follows that up with a book… like I can't read. I then give him soap—explanation easy there.

The following day, I receive a pink princess blanket that I may or may not have burned and tossed on his front doorstep, not realizing his dad is a cop. Now, both dads want the war to stop between us, forcing us to go on a camping trip to bury the hatchet—which I'm convinced he actually brought.

He's a hazard to my health. But it's only a weekend. I honestly don't know if we'll make it out alive, but the dads are tired of it all. Regardless, I'll come out and prove I'm not the princess he thinks I am. Maybe he'll end up lost in the woods—one can only hope.

One thing's for sure. I will never, ever fall for him. Ever.

A bet with the boy next door? Challenge accepted. I'll be waiting for my trophy at the finish line.

Every 1001 Dark Nights novella is a standalone story. For new listeners, it's an introduction to an author's world. And for fans, it's a bonus book in the author's series.

Could not get past the first chapter

I usually like the 1001 Nights books but this one makes no sense and isn't funny.
