About Hate Me Take Me :
For fans of Lights Out and You, this follow-up to Love Me Stalk Me is a dark rom-com about a woman matched with her fantasy boyfriend by an AI app—unaware he’s actually her ex-husband, back to win her over in disguise.
When Amanda Bennett signs up for the beta feature of the Obsess AI boyfriend app, she thinks it’s just another marketing gimmick. Go on a date with a real man who matches her digital fantasy? Spoiler: she’s skeptical. Then the app delivers. Her match is hot, brooding, motorcycle included. Perfect—except he refuses to remove his helmet, won’t share his name, and somehow knows things about her no stranger should. Because he’s not a stranger. He’s Kade Steele, her ex-husband. The one who disappeared. The one she’s spent years trying—and failing—to forget. Now he’s back and determined to win her heart. With a little romance, a little mystery, and a deeply questionable amount of stalking. She thought she was moving on. Instead, she’s falling for the one man who broke her heart…and this time, he’s not letting go.
