Summary
Anthony narrowed his eyes and leaned his arms on the bar top. He tilted his head and said, very matter-of-fact, “You don’t like me.”
“Hmmm,” Kate tutted, pretending to think hard about it, “Decidedly not.”
“You don’t even know me!” Anthony countered, his nostrils flaring.
“I know you.” She shook her head and continued cleaning the bar. “You are not unique.”
“I’d love to hear what you have to say.”
Kate snorted, “I’m sure. I’m sure you love to listen to people talk about you.”
He rolled his eyes. “Go on, then.”
-------They meet. They fight. They get it together by the end.

Summary
“I'm sorry, but aren't you Kate Sharma?” he asked, matching her face against the picture from the call a few hours prior. Within seconds her eyes narrowed and the smile immediately vanished from her lips.
“Anthony Bridgerton?”
“What a small world,” he tried, but she only gave him a curt nod.
“Yes indeed.”
Her tone was just as icy as during their negotiations, and Anthony wondered once more what triggered her animosity.
OR
Kate and Anthony first meet during contract negotiations before meeting for a second time at the theatre, where they are given seats next to each other. Over the course of several months, several operas and operettas, a string of work calls and endless pages of legal documents, Anthony falls head over heels for her, despite the fact that she initially seems to dislike him.
But asking out the opposing counsel is not exactly the thing you do, especially when said opposing counsel might accuse you of unethical behaviour…
OR
The story of how Anthony is secretly pining for Kate - opposing counsel and coincidental seat buddy at the opera - for months while (for reasons unknown) she seems to hate his guts.

Summary
“You do not care what others think of you?” He asked. The man studied her and then quickly looked at their surroundings. “I find that difficult to believe.”
“And why is that?” Kate was not certain why she felt compelled to argue with the man, though he seemed to enjoy the back and forth. As did she, not that she would admit as much.
He tilted his head. “You are attending a ball where the goal of nearly every unmarried person is to find a suitable match. We base such matches on what we think of others actions or status, do we not? To attend such an event disproves your earlier claim.”
“Enlighten me, my lord. Is that your goal? Are you looking for a suitable match?”
He pursed his lips and looked away momentarily, and Kate felt herself almost sway at his movement, as if pulled into his orbit. He took a step closer. “And if I were to say yes?”
“If you were to say yes, then I would suggest it would do you better to peruse the dance floor rather than this terrace.”
_______Or the one where neither of them are interested in marriage but can't help seeking out one another
