Swipe Bite

by Vasti, Alexandra

Swipe Bite is essentially a masterclass in high-stakes bickering. It follows two people who are absolutely convinced they cannot stand one another, yet find themselves trapped in a fake dating scheme that forces them to play nice in public while trading verbal jabs behind closed doors. The writing is incredibly sharp, prioritizing quick-witted dialogue and that specific, delicious tension that only comes when two stubborn protagonists finally realize their mutual animosity is just a mask for something much more complicated. It moves at a brisk, lighthearted pace, focusing more on the humor of their forced proximity than heavy angst. If you enjoy a story where the banter is as vital as the romance and you prefer your historical settings with a modern, spirited sensibility, this one hits the sweet spot.
