I shake my head, eyes fixed anywhere but the gorgeous man next to me. His hand grips my chin tightly, just enough to make me avert my eyes to his. "You know you want this as much as I fucking do.

He glares, jaw tensing. ...... ©hessaherophinelove

**DISCLAIMER: THIS BOOK IS COMPLETE and SENIOR YEAR is currently out now on my page. It is still marked as "on going" because some bonus material in Evan's POV is in the process of being added and I'm slowly improving old writing habits.** Alex Matthews' junior year of college derails the moment she's mistakenly assigned to an all-male dorm with Evan Carter - Briarwood University's star quarterback, campus obsession, and the absolute last person she wants to share a room with. But when forced proximity turns into late-night conversations, lingering touches, jealousy neither of them can hide, and a connection neither of them expected, the line between roommates and something far more dangerous begins to blur. Because Evan Carter doesn't know how to stand by and not protect her. And Alex Matthews has spent her entire life convincing herself that people always leave.

Standalone in the Wellsfield University Series ***** Evelyn Hayes has hated Atlas Griffin, the golden boy of their university hockey team, since their very first conversation three years ago.

IF YOU ARE OVERLY SENSITIVE, DO NOT READ THIS BOOK* Logan Pierce and Noah Locke are sworn enemies. Both at the top of their class, holding themselves to the highest standards; both captains of their volleyball teams, Logan as the girls captain, Noah as the boys; and both constantly playing seemingly harmless pranks to get back at one another. Or, at least, they're usually harmless... If one thing is true, Noah Locke and Logan Pierce are not friends. But does that mean they could never be friends? Or transcend their title as enemies? Logan might take things too far sometimes, but there's a reason behind the angry front she puts on, and in order to get behind it, someone needs to show her that there's more to life than being the best at everything.

And when something happens at the bonding camp that brings Logan's vulnerable side up to bat, Noah is the one who has to bring her back. While Logan and Noah explore something other than hatred for one another, there are secrets and people who could be working in toll to bring them apart. But will they be able to transcend those factors and stop fighting for once? Or were they destined to be enemies forever?
