The Rivals’ Touch by Harleigh Beck (Paperback)

A Dark Romance.

Remi’s life changes overnight when she’s forced to leave everything behind and start again in Aycliffe. Once the centre of attention, she now finds herself surrounded by rivals, tension, and a reputation she has to rebuild from scratch.

Nothing about her new life is easy. She’s pushed onto a rival cheer team led by someone who already despises her, while living under the same roof as Zayd—the captain of the basketball team and her boyfriend’s biggest rival.

Zayd isn’t just an inconvenience. He’s a problem.

He knows something he shouldn’t. Something that could destroy everything Remi is trying to hold together. And he’s not afraid to use it.

As pressure builds from all sides, Remi is pulled into a world of power plays, manipulation, and shifting loyalties. Zayd, along with those around him, begins to test her limits in ways she never expected.

What starts as rivalry quickly becomes something more complicated.

Desire, control, and secrets intertwine, forcing Remi to question how far she’s willing to go to protect herself—and what she might lose in the process.
