𝐕𝐢𝐞𝐧𝐧𝐚 𝐏𝐚𝐫𝐤 Veriton Hall was never built for those who've risen from nothing. Those like me. Everything I have, I earned. Some can't say the same. Theodore Lancaster has been my rival since the day we both set foot on campus---smug, brilliant, born with a silver spoon and a trust fund. He's everything I've fought against my entire life. And now? He's the only thing standing between me and the thesis project that could launch my career. Working with him is a nightmare. Ignoring the heat between us? Impossible. I've built my world on structure, ambition, and self-preservation. But Theo makes me want to set fire to all of it. 𝐓𝐡𝐞𝐨𝐝𝐨𝐫𝐞 𝐋𝐚𝐧𝐜𝐚𝐬𝐭𝐞𝐫 She is as infuriating as she is brilliant. And unfortunately, she's the only person I've ever met who doesn't fall for my charm. I've spent the last four years outscoring, outsmarting, and outmaneuvering her---until Winslow pairs us for a joint thesis that forces us to spend every second together. She hates me. I'm not exactly a fan of her, either. So why do I keep imagining what it'd be like to kiss her mid-argument? Vienna's all rules and fire. I've never met a woman more determined to hate me. But the longer we work together, the more I realize: I don't want to win anymore. I want her.

After spending years as one of the most sought-after bachelorette of the ton, Esmeralda Blackwood has decided one last time for the sake of her father to try to settle down and carry on the family line. She knows love exists because her parents were a shining example of a loving, happy marriage. Still, she has no intentions of falling in love with her intended groom. She meets the Sharmas and decided to help the young Sharma find a husband but she didn't count on her ex-childhood friend Anthony Bridgerton trying to court her. Esmeralda has no intention of allowing Anthony Bridgerton anywhere near her new friends. She vows to do whatever it takes to interfere with the rakish viscount's courtship, but in the process manages to unintentionally get herself into some outlandish situations, which also place her in close proximity with the man himself. When Esmeralda and the Sharmas are invited to a house party at the Bridgerton country estate, she discovers the old side of Anthony the side she fell in love with when they were kids.

I have known the Bridgertons for most my life. Daphne is my best friend and the closest to a sister I will ever have. Being the only child isn't just lonely. It's a constant reminded of the future I will have if something were to happen to my father, and if I ever try to forget, my mother will be there to make sure I remember. Then there is Lord Bridgerton-- Anthony...I have loved him for as long as I have known what love was. He makes my heart pound and my knees unsteady. One moment of weakness made it easier to believe he could love back, but my mother isn't going to wait for him to maybe ask for my hand. My reality is that I must get married and he will never want to marry me. I have one more London season to find my match before my mother makes one for me... ________________________ This story is based off the Bridgerton books series by Julia Quinn(that I highly recommend).

C O M P L E T E D : 24/02/22 Sienna Callum was popular - scratch that - she was the queen of high school. She had tons of gorgeous friends wishing to be her, smoking hot flings, and an unbelievably trendy fashion sense. But, she needed one more thing. Decent grades to graduate. Roman Lawrence was a nerd - scratch that - THE nerd of high school. Yet, his exceptional intelligence made him stand out among those seeking to learn. He had one problem though, the girl he'd been crushing on since kindergarten didn't like him back. One of the reasons? His lack of experience.... sexually. This isn't boy meets girl. This is mouse meets vixen. This is what happens when these two opposites strike a deal and things get hot.

The stress of her degree and being the best took over her world until she found herself in another.
