Grace Ivers isn't the type to seek out frat parties, but when her outgoing roommate drags her to one, she finds herself thrust into the chaos of loud music, red solo cups, and a sea of confident athletes. Navigating the scene as a college freshman is overwhelming enough-until she catches the eye of John Logan. Logan is everything Grace has been warned about-charming, confident, and completely out of her league. But when an unexpected flip cup challenge turns into an undeniable connection, Grace starts to wonder if there's more to him than his reputation suggests. As the night unfolds, friendships are forged, bets are made, and sparks fly between Grace and Logan in a way neither of them expected.

A flirty, fast-paced college romance about taking chances, unexpected chemistry, and the beginning of something neither of them saw coming. ***I do not own the rights to the characters or the previous story line. *** Completed.

Two weeks. That was the deal. Two weeks under the same roof. Two weeks to decide what was real. Two weeks before walking away. Cara never expected those two weeks to change everything.

As the walls come down and the lines blur, what starts as obligation ignites into something dangerous-intimate nights, stolen moments, laughter layered over desire. Noah wants her to stay. Cara wants to believe she can. And somewhere between late-night confessions and whispered promises, falling in love becomes the one thing neither of them planned for. But love means trust. And when jealousy, secrets, and outside interference threaten everything they've built, Cara is forced to face the hardest truth of all- Love isn't enough if it isn't safe.
