He Can Take It

A Standalone Enemies to Lovers Romance

My car breaking down was bad enough.
The comment he made about me? Unforgivable.

Jay is smug, arrogant, and far too pleased with himself.
The kind of mechanic who thinks a grin can smooth over anything—and that women like me won’t push back.

He’s wrong.

I’m not here to flirt.
I’m not here to be charmed.
I’m here because he crossed a line, and I fully intend to make him regret it.

At least… that’s the plan.

What I didn’t plan on was the way he watches me.
Or how the teasing starts to feel less like an insult and more like a challenge.
Or the confusing truth that the man I’m trying to knock down a peg is also the one making my pulse race.

My revenge is supposed to be simple.
Controlled.
Deserved.

But the closer we get, the harder it is to tell whether I’m setting a trap… or walking straight into one.

The Bad Boys With Benefits series was originally released under the name Dirty Mechanic and follows a group of mechanics working at the same car repair shop—where the heat isn’t just coming from under the hood.

He Can Take It was previously published as Forbidden Soulmates. This is a full-length, standalone enemies-to-lovers romance with no cheating, no cliffhangers, and a guaranteed Happily Ever After.
