The Revenge Plan by Linda Kage
Publication date: April 29th, 2019
Synopsis (according to Goodreads):
After I caught my boyfriend cheating, I tried to be mature about it with an amicable split. But he took his retaliation too far, and I have officially had enough. No more Miss Nice Haven.
No one is allowed to lie to me, betray, embarrass, and devastate me, fill me with self-doubt, or put my future at risk, and expect to get away with it. He is going to feel my wrath.
Enter Wick Webster, his archenemy.
Nothing would provoke my ex more than to see me moving on with the one guy he hates most, so that's exactly what I plan to do.
The only hitch in my brilliant scheme is Wick himself. He's just gotta be all love-not-war and peace-is-the-only-way. He's more concerned about helping me heal than seeking my sweet revenge.
And what the hell is it about his soothing presence and yummy looks that calls to me until I forget how much pain I'm in? He's making it awfully hard to use and abuse him for my malicious means. The damn guy is making me fall for him.

Hearing Haven yelp, "Son of a bitch," from the kitchen right before a pan clanged loudly piqued my curiosity.
I wandered that way to see what she was cooking--or trying to cook--only to curse in surprise and duck as a banana flew past my head when I reached the entrance.
"Dammit," Haven growled from the table where she'd heaved the banana in frustration without even knowing I was there. Mopping up some liquid with a dish towel that had spilled from a bowl, she added, "Why isn't anything working?"
Blinking out my dismay, I peered around the room, needing more than a moment to process what I saw.
Numerous bowls of pale, creamy substances, an open carton of milk, a bottle of glue, laundry detergent, and bottled water cluttered the tabletop in front of her, along with a box of condoms with half of them open and littering the wooden surface like little wilted flags of defeat.
On the floor beside her, Bingley ignored her cat toy and was merrily batting around another unrolled condom.
"Uh..." Taking a step back, I glanced around to see if anyone else was present, but Haven seemed to be all alone with her condoms. "I'm not even going to ask."
Haven looked up and blew a wild piece of hair that had fluttered into her face out of her eyes. "I can't make authentic-looking jizz," she grumbled.
O...kay.
What was a guy supposed to say to that?
"Right," I said slowly. "Well... That sounds like a personal problem, so I'm just... I'm going to leave."
