Claimed Heart

di Alessia Graves (Autore)

Alessia Graves, 2025

I always thought opposites were the ones who crashed into each other and fell in love. Turns out, it's much more dangerous when you meet your mirror. He shouldn't have gotten under my skin the way he did. We think the same way. We argue the same way. We walk into a room and somehow end up on opposite sides of every conversation, just on principle. Every encounter turns into a challenge, every glance into a dare. Everyone around us rolls their eyes and calls it "chemistry." I call it a problem. I've been here before—believing in a forever that shattered and left me stitching my heart back together alone. Since then, I've made myself a promise: stay in control, stay untouchable, don't let anyone close enough to hurt me again. Then he showed up with that infuriating smirk and those eyes that see straight through my walls. He gives as good as he gets. Every time I push, he pushes back. Every time I say I don't care, he leans in a little closer, like he can hear the way my pulse betrays me. We fight over everything and nothing—ideas, plans, who gets the last word. We spark, we clash, and somehow, underneath all the bickering, there's this pull I can't explain. He's the only one who makes me feel seen and exposed at the same time, like he recognizes the same scars in me that he hides in himself. The more I try to keep things light, the heavier it feels. The more I pretend it's just a game, the more it starts to look like a choice. Because somewhere between the teasing and the arguments, his hand finds mine when I'm tired, his voice steadies me when old fears creep back in. And every time our eyes meet, I have to face a truth I don't want to admit: He isn't just my rival. He might be the one person who fits me too well to ignore. But when two stubborn, wounded hearts finally collide, will we complete each other… or destroy the fragile peace we've both fought so hard to build? Claimed Heart is a steamy, slow-burn rivals-to-lovers contemporary romance about two stubborn, sharp-tongued overachievers who are far too alike for their own good. Expect nonstop banter, emotional walls, buried wounds, and the delicious tension of watching two guarded hearts realize that the person they fight hardest might be the only one who truly fits.
