Nicole Lee has two goals this semester: keep her GPA sky-high and avoid murdering Daniel freaking Carter. He's her academic arch-nemesis, the cocky genius who never studies, always wins, and somehow makes sarcasm look stupidly attractive. She's the overachieving perfectionist with a five-year plan and zero tolerance for his smug little smirk. So when they're both chosen for an elite school field trip - and forced to share a room? It's basically a nightmare. Nicole's perfectly organised life starts spiraling into chaos. And maybe - just maybe - into something that feels dangerously close to love. Enemies to lovers was not on the syllabus.

"The answer is 'A,'" I say, keeping my voice light and kind. Carter snorts from beside me. "No, it's 'C.'" Bingo. I was hoping he'd say that. "The question clearly asks you to round to the nearest tenth. If I'm not mistaken, which I don't believe I am, answer 'C' has two decimal places." I smirk as his mouth twitches into a frown. We're still standing. "Very well, Miss. Jones," Mr. Neilson says, projecting another question. "I can't stand you," Carter mumbles in my ear. I turn my head towards him, pressing my lips against his ear. "Then sit the fuck down, Conners," I whisper. "I'm winning." ... Fairridge Prep is for the best of the best. Sadie Jones, stubborn and clever, is set on being the best. Returning from winter break feeling, more so than ever, that she has stolen her sister's dream, Sadie is determined to spend the rest of Junior year proving that she deserves everything she's worked towards. Carter Conners, notorious flirt (only when it comes to Sadie), will do anything it takes to not spend the rest of his life working at his parents' diner. Whether it's running for the track team or debating, Carter is always competing, and competing to win. Sadie and Carter have been rivals since freshman year, constantly bickering and trying to best each other. But when the rivals are thrown into a week long debate competition that, along with getting the top spot on the Principal's List, will guarantee one of them the title of Valedictorian next year, they find themselves enjoying each other's company more than they would've ever expected. And it leaves them wondering: "Do we really hate each other?"

April Stewart and Grey Collins have been at each other's throat since eighth grade. Putting them within reaching distance of each other doesn't exactly call for an amiable sight. So what was Mr. Martin thinking putting them in a play together? ~•~ One prank leads to another. ~•~ There is always more than meets the eye. And to everyone else, it seems like the only thing that ever spoils their day is each other. But everyone fights their own battle. April and Grey will have to learn that maybe there is more to the enemy. And with the play rehearsals going on, the knowledge they acquire might just change the dynamic of their relationship completely. disclaimer: picture on the cover is not mine. credits to the owner.

Ivan callum with the face of a angel never let's a chance go where he has to watch his academic rival Rose Levine fail. But the feeling is mutual. When both of them are only in a need of one single opportunity where they are guaranteed a future. They don't have a option other than working together which means spending time together. While they work on this, unwanted attraction is built and just like emotions are a lover's enemy they abide by the saying. "You're you, and I will go to my grave before I let anyone change any part of you. I know that without a doubt in my mind.. " His lips brushing with mine with every word. THIS NEEDS EDITING!!
