❝ Don't look at me like that. You have no idea what it's like to want someone so badly it feels like you're going insane.

Please, just take me out of my misery.❞ In which Briar University's most notorious womanizer, Dean Di Laurentis, falls into a hopeless obsession with Garrett Graham's best friend, fighting a desperate losing battle against a temptation that is forbidden to him.

Blair Hayes has always preferred observing over being observed. Between classes, cameras, and a project that could shape her entire future at Briar University, distractions are the last thing she needs. Especially not Garrett Graham - hockey star, owner of an annoyingly perfect smile, and somehow gifted at turning every situation into complete chaos. Garrett just needed help passing philosophical ethics. What he didn't expect was to meet someone who could see past the fame, the games, and the flawless image he'd spent years building. Some people enter your life slowly. Others change everything the moment they come into focus.

❝BEEN HERE ALL ALONG SO WHY CANT YOU SEE? YOU BELONG WITH ME ❞ Sienna Di Laurentis had always known exactly how she looked to other people. Perfectly put together. Effortlessly styled. The girl who never seemed like she was trying too hard, even when she absolutely was. Fashion wasn't just something she liked - it was how she spoke. She noticed things most people didn't. The way fabrics moved when someone walked. The way colour changed a mood. The difference between something expensive and something that just looked expensive. While other people at Briar University were figuring out who they were, Sienna already knew the version of herself she wanted the world to see. And she built it carefully. A way of deciding exactly how she took up space in a world that had once made her feel like she didn't get a say in anything at all. Because before Briar, before the sketches and fabric rolls and late-night design boards- there had been football. Not casual. Not hobby-level. Real football - elite, competitive, structured around discipline and pressure and expectation. The kind where talent gets noticed early and pushed even harder. Sienna had been good. Too good to be ignored. She had lived in that world completely once - training, matches, coaches, pressure, results. It was everything she thought she was becoming. Until it wasn't. It didn't end cleanly. Nothing like that ever does. At Briar, she was a second-year fashion design student. Dean Di Laurentis' younger sister. They were close in the way siblings who argued constantly usually were. Sarcastic, sharp, always one comment away from starting something. But underneath it, there was familiarity. History. Understanding without explanation. And now he played hockey at Briar. Which meant Sienna was never entirely separate from that world either. She just wasn't part of it. Not really. Not until him. Garrett Graham was exactly what Briar University expected him to be.

Josie James doesn't avoid most things. She's outspoken, driven, snarky, and most importantly never turns down a good time. But when her friends boyfriend's roommate becomes a constant presence in her life, she avoids him at all costs. Or Dean Di laurentis is a known playboy hockey player. Never one to get attached or serious about anything but hockey. But when one rejection turns into hopeless curiosity, he loses his old ways just to get attention of one girl.

'𝗜𝗻 𝗮 𝘄𝗼𝗿𝗹𝗱 𝘁𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗻𝗲𝘃𝗲𝗿 𝗰𝗵𝗼𝘀𝗲 𝗵𝗲𝗿, 𝗵𝗲 𝗱𝗶𝗱' She was a quiet one, the girl who slipped through hallways like a whisper. Only her friends truly saw her - easy to overlook, softness, gentle. To everyone else, she was just the outcast in the background To him, he slowly noticed her. ᵈᵉᵃⁿ ᵈⁱ ˡᵃᵘʳᵉⁿᵗⁱˢ ˣ ᶠᵉᵐ ᵒᶜ off campus - s1

Mya Kingston has spent her entire life fighting to be enough. As the first girl ever recruited to Briar University's elite men's hockey team, the entire world is waiting for her to fail. Her teammates don't trust her, the media watches her every move, and her father demands nothing less than perfection. Because to Richard Kingston, love is something that has to be earned. On the ice, Mya is cold. Aggressive. Untouchable. But off the rink, she hides bruises, sleepless nights, and a secret love for music that nobody is supposed to know about. Especially not John Logan. Logan notices too much. The fear behind her silence. The pain hidden beneath her anger. And the way she flinches whenever someone gets too close. The longer he stays around her, the harder it becomes for Mya to believe he only wants friendship. But falling for someone was never part of the plan. Neither was learning what it feels like to be loved without fear. In a world full of pressure, expectations, and secrets, Mya must decide: Will she keep fighting for her father's approval- or finally start living for herself? #HockeyRomance #OffCampus #CollegeRomance #SlowBurn #SportsRomance #EmotionalRomance
