Hate Notes

Hate Notes

Zainab Sambo

A small-town florist. A superstar quarterback. A decade of hate notes that were never meant to be seen.

Iris writes hate notes the way other people breathe: privately, viciously, and just to survive the mess Jesse left behind. Then someone drags her most humiliating thoughts into the light, and overnight Iris becomes the internet's favourite new obsession, "the girl who hates the quarterback."

Jesse, now a pro football star with a talent for turning charm into armour, comes home determined to handle it. Iris would rather set her hydrangeas on fire than let him control the story again. Especially when the leaks keep coming, the spotlight gets meaner, and her life starts to catch literal heat.

With a steady, too kind ER doctor offering safety, and Jesse refusing to let her go, Iris is trapped between the man who knows her best and the one who feels like an escape. But someone in their small town is fanning the flames on purpose, and if Iris wants her future back, she'll have to risk the one thing she swore she'd never give Jesse again: the truth.

And absolutely off-limits... or so she thought. She’s crushed on him for years, but now she’s not just looking—she’s taking. Sparks fly, rules break, and their secret? Too hot to hide. She’s got one goal this holiday season: turn a lifelong fantasy into a very real, very delicious reality. No more waiting. No more pretending. It’s time to go after what she wants—and she’s not taking no for an answer.
