MM Enemies to Lovers — The Bully, the Rival & the Man You Swore You Hated (2026)
Enemies-to-lovers is the trope that turns contempt into foreplay — and it hits differently between two men who’ve spent years perfecting exactly how to get under each other’s skin. The high-school bully, the corporate rival, the enforcer, the guy across the property line. Here are four MM enemies-to-lovers romances, all at inferno heat. Most are free with Kindle Unlimited, and each book page has a free first chapter.
Hooking Up with My Bully — Jace Wilder (The Bully)
Marcus Hale made Eli Turner’s life a living hell in high school — two years of targeted cruelty that left scars, including a real one on Eli’s chin. Eli left their small town the day after graduation and swore he’d never come back. Now his grandmother’s house needs gutting before he can sell it, the only contractor in town is Marcus, and the man who used to torment him won’t stop looking at him like an apology he doesn’t know how to make. Bully-to-lover, enemies-to-lovers, small-town return, renovation, forced proximity, he-falls-first, hurt/comfort, size difference. Free with Kindle Unlimited. First chapter free →
Hostile Merger — Chase Power (Corporate Rivals)
Dominic Vale is the closer — the fixer companies fly in when a deal is already on fire. So is the man his firm just partnered him with. Sent to rescue the same sinking startup, forced to share one cramped Airbnb, and unable to stop trying to outmaneuver each other long enough to sleep, they discover the only thing more combustible than a bad merger is two rivals who refuse to lose. Corporate rivals, enemies-to-lovers, forced proximity, only one bed, competence kink, grumpy/sunshine. Free with Kindle Unlimited. First chapter free →
Gloves Off — Chase Power (The Enforcer)
Brant “Brick” Maddox is thirty-four, six-foot-five, the meanest enforcer in professional hockey — and he has been closeted for fifteen years. The rookie has spent nine of them waiting, and hating him for making the waiting necessary. One season, one locker room, and a rivalry that’s been armor for both of them for far too long. Enemies-to-lovers, hockey, age gap, closeted, size difference, hurt/comfort, coming out. Free with Kindle Unlimited. First chapter free →
Aisle Be There — Jace Wilder (Across the Aisle)
Corporate turnaround specialist Evan Price is sent to his Adirondack hometown to “modernize” his family’s failing grocery store before headquarters sells the land out from under it. The butcher next door has a union petition, a perfect smile, and every intention of making Evan’s efficient little assignment as difficult as humanly possible. Enemies-to-lovers, blue collar, class difference, competence kink, feeding kink, food as love language, found family. Available at all major retailers. First chapter free →
