Violet Reed doesn't have the luxury of making mistakes. At Briar University on scholarships and two part-time jobs, every grade, every shift, and every decision matters. Failure isn't an option. Neither is Dean Di Laurentis. Rich. Connected. Entitled. Everything Violet has spent her life learning to avoid. After catching her boyfriend cheating on her, Violet swears off relationships altogether. Now living with Allie Hayes and trying to put her broken heart back together, she's focused on one thing: Herself. Then Dean decides he wants her. Unfortunately for him, Violet isn't impressed by his charm, his money, or his reputation. For the first time in his life, Dean hears a word no girl has ever dared tell him. No. Most guys would've walked away. But the more Violet pushes him away, the more determined Dean becomes to prove he's not the guy she thinks he is. And the more Dean gets to know Violet, the more he realizes she's worth fighting for. But trust isn't rebuilt overnight. Especially when the last people Violet trusted destroyed her. ────୨ৎ──── ✮ Dean Di Laurentis x Female OC ✮ Dual POV ✮ Based on the Off Campus TV series ────୨ৎ──── Highest rankings: #1 in DEANDILAURENTIS #1 in PRIME #3 in HOCKEYROMANCE #4 in OFFCAMPUS

A twenty-year-old sophomore at Briar University majoring in Criminal Psychology and Criminology. She had one goal, and one goal only. Graduate. Build the career she'd dreamed about since she was a little girl. Leave behind the town, the memories, and the ghosts that had followed her for far too long. No distractions. No heartbreak. Definitely no falling for her older brother's best friend. She'd spent years carefully building a life of her own. One lecture, one exam, one research proposal at a time. Independent. Ambitious. Determined. Until Dean Di Laurentis made forgetting him impossible. ᯓ★ 𝓓ean 𝓓i 𝓛aurentis. Golden Boy of Briar University's hockey team. Campus heartthrob. Professional flirt. The guy every girl wanted and every guy wanted to be. Dean lived for hockey, loud music, late nights, and making memories with his three best friends: Garrett, Logan, and Tucker. Life had always come easily to him. Until it didn't. Because sometimes the strongest people break the hardest. What happens when the one person you've been told is off limits becomes the only person who ever feels like home? When first love collides with impossible timing...when grief changes everything...and when loving someone means deciding whether to hold on...or let them go.
