Nathan
Michael Mackenzie, the villain of my life. If life wasn’t bad enough, it also had to throw in the devil himself to torture me. I made the mistake of finding Michael’s blue eyes comforting in my moment of weakness, but never again.
I know I don’t fit in anywhere near the lifestyle of that privileged boy, but it doesn’t give him the right to bully me. If he thinks I am going to bow down to his self-proclaimed title of the king, then he is seriously mistaken. The problem is, no matter how much I hate Michael, I am also drawn to him in a way I shouldn’t.
Michael
I, Michael Mackenzie, am the king of King’s Shield High. Nathan Reyes isn’t one of us. That half-breed doesn’t belong anywhere in the status with me. His father is a chef at the school’s cafeteria and runs a town bakery—the town which my father owns. Nathan should have known his place before challenging me. His beautiful light brown eyes are full of accusations. That lower class doesn’t realize who I am. I will make his life so miserable that he will beg for my mercy. And that would be a sight, Nathan Reyes on his knees for me.

I Hate You! isn’t just another M/M romance. It’s a psychological tug-of-war between pain, desire, and power that A.B Julian has wrapped in razor-sharp prose and emotional grit. Julian didn’t just write a bully romance, he cracked open the mind behind it. The dual perspective between Nathan and Michael? That’s pure narrative psychology in motion. It’s dark, twisted, and dangerously human. Exactly the kind of emotional chaos readers devour and then immediately go looking for someone to talk about.
