(Completed✨) Layla Sterling came to Oceancrest College carrying her family's name and the pressure to make their new Sterling Coffee shop succeed in a town who hates outsiders. At first, things seemed fine, especially after she met Mason Demore, the charming local with a grin and a thing for making her laugh. But everything changes when they discover their families run next door rival cafés. Mason is the golden boy of Anchor's Roast, the heart of the town, and to him, Layla suddenly becomes the face of the outsiders threatening his home. To her, he's infuriating, stubborn, and impossible to ignore. What starts as a spark turns into a rivalry that burns through gossip feeds, fake smiles, and late-night arguments that feel a little too much like honesty. In a town where everyone is watching, Layla has to decide if protecting her family's image is worth losing the one person who makes her feel real. ________________________________ Tropes: ~College town / coastal setting 🌊 ~Rivals to lovers ☕️❤️ ~Slow burn 🔥 ~Small town gossip 🗞️ ~Emotional healing & self discovery 💡 ~Complicated families 🧑🤝🧑 ~no smut ❌

She hated help from the police, mechanics, or anyone that will try and tear her down. Especially not an unwanted billionaire that wears a RBF who pushes his way into her business. She's reckless and fast, fueled by the flames and the want to push her limit of speed. But when a narrow escape and a wrecked car threatens her career forever, Enzo Mendez, a former street racer and tech empire heir, makes an offer with her that she desperately needs: connections, coaching, and the tools to keep her life in one piece entirely. She's stubborn, he's infuriating. And something between the late night arguments and power battle feels too much like foreplay, finding themselves toeing the line they swore they wouldn't cross. Their ride to love is never smooth, between their rivalries, unburied secrets, and personal reputations collide with her want to be together, they have to decide if it's worth racing for... or if it's better just to leave it in the dust.

(Completed)✨ Jules Wilder came to Evergreen Academy Boarding School to start over. Not to end up sharing a dorm with Nathan Talon-quiet, guarded, and the kind of beautiful that makes it hard to think straight. She's trying to forget the past. He wants nothing to do with anyone. But between late-night talks, unexpected softness, and the kind of connection neither of them planned for, the walls they've built start to crumble. As Jules begins to find her footing, long-buried questions and quiet truths start rising to the surface. Forcing her to face more than just her feelings for the boy she definitely wasn't expected to catch feelings for. Falling Into Place is a story about healing, connection, and figuring out who you are-even when everything around you is a little bit of a mess. ________________________________ Tropes: ~boarding school 🏫 ~slow burn 🔥 ~roommates to lovers 🩷 ~self discovery 💡 ~mystery¿ 🔍 ~no smut ❌ ~complicated families 🧑‍🧑‍🧒
