The Bad Idea
M. Anderson

Elijah Cruz doesn’t do feelings. After too many letdowns, he’s happy keeping things light—flirting, fun, and no expectations. So when his old frenemy Aubrey Martin shows up in his life again, single and looking for a distraction, Eli figures it’s the perfect arrangement.
They don’t even like each other. Not really.
Aubrey is too cocky, too chaotic, too good at getting under his skin. And yet, somehow, they keep gravitating back to each other—through movie nights, teasing arguments, and stolen moments that start to feel a little too real.
Eli’s convinced this is a bad idea.
The real question is… how bad could it be?
Perfect for readers who love:
✔ Frenemies-to-lovers banter
✔ Mutual pining in disguise
✔ A little angst, a lot of flirting
✔ That moment when "casual" stops feeling casual
