(mxm) Survival tip #1: Don't strangle your snowed-in roommate. Easier said than done for Miles Thompson, a college senior who just wants to cruise through his final semester with as few complications as possible. But when a freak blizzard traps him in Logan Arver's apartment, simple is officially off the table. Logan is smug, infuriatingly calm, and way too good at getting under Miles's skin. Miles is short-tempered, sleep-deprived, and certainly not interested in making new friends. But with the snow piling up, the power on the verge of cutting out, and nowhere else to go, they're forced to navigate more than just the storm together---long after it ends.

Levi has always had it easy-on the field, in the halls, and with everyone who thinks they know him. Popular, athletic, and effortlessly charming, he's the guy people expect to succeed... even if his grades say otherwise. Dakota is his opposite in every way: sharp-tongued, top of the class, and perfectly content to be invisible to everyone-especially boys like Levi. So when the school pairs them for tutoring, neither of them is thrilled. Levi thinks Dakota's a know-it-all. Dakota thinks Levi's a lost cause. But forced afternoons turn into inside jokes. Shared secrets slip through the cracks. And somewhere between late-night study sessions and unexpected sparks, Levi starts noticing things he shouldn't-like the way Dakota smiles when he forgets to hide it. Just when things feel almost right, a mistake shatters everything. Harsh words. Betrayal. Bad blood. And suddenly they're strangers again - hurt, angry, and pretending they never cared. [Mature themes] [Completed]
