He doesn't do girlfriends. Valerie Montgomery is exhausted. Exhausted of the cheating. The screaming matches. The humiliation. The revolving door relationship she can't seem to escape with Briar University football star Aaron Carter. So after one betrayal too many, Valerie decides she needs one thing: A distraction. Enter Garrett Graham. Briar U's hockey golden boy has rules when it comes to women, no attachments, no sleepovers, no feelings. With the pressure of being legendary hockey player Phill Graham's son crushing him from every angle, Garrett only has time for hockey and sex. Valerie should've been temporary. And Garrett should've been easy. But somewhere between late-night hookups, bruising chemistry, and the quiet moments neither of them were supposed to care about, lines begin to blur. Because the problem with pretending not to feel anything...is eventually, you do. And when toxic love comes back demanding another chance, Valerie is forced to decide what hurts more: Losing Aaron or risking Garrett.

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.

Alice Carter is trying to live her life normally again. Be a college student, focus on herself, stay out of anything messy, and most importantly, not fall in love. But then Dean and Garrett show up, and suddenly normal doesn't feel so simple anymore. It starts in the small moments she tries to ignore, the tension she tells herself she's imagining, the way everything feels a little more intense when they're around. And the more they become part of her world, the harder it gets to pretend she isn't already caught up in something she swore she'd stay away from.

Lorelai Daisy Slater was a quiet girl. She worked hard for what she had, put a lot of effort into her studies, and was ready for the real world. She worked hard to transfer from a little community college to Briar U. She thought it was gonna be an easy two years, work at Malones, get a scholarship, and get a stable job once she graduates, but the Briar U boys seem to be interested in her. Rory had thought she left it all behind, but when Dean DiLaurentis recognizes her, she knows it's gonna be hard to avoid him. She sneaks around him at Malones, the Hockey rink, when she sneaks in to skate, and even on campus. But how long until the boys succeed and get Rory to finally talk to them?

"Dude." Garrett kicked his shoe under the table. "You're staring." "I'm not." "You absolutely are." Logan ignored him and looked back over anyway. ---------- In a city full of noise, Logan's life has always been simple-hockey, friends, routine, no distractions he can't control. And then there's Melina. At first, she's just a face he notices sometimes. A girl in passing, in cafés, in lecture halls, always just out of reach of anything real. Nothing he acts on. Nothing that should mean anything. But somehow, it does anyway. What starts as a quiet, unimportant crush slowly becomes something that lingers longer than it should-something he can't quite ignore, even when life moves on around it. And when she finally starts to step into his world for real, it changes everything he thought was simple.
