Dean Di Laurentis gets every girl he wants. Olivia Williams is the first one who refuses to be part of the game. At Briar University, hockey is religion, parties are currency, and everyone knows everyone's secrets. Dean lives for chaos. Olivia practically invented it. But somewhere between late-night fights, stolen glances across crowded parties, and a rivalry neither of them can walk away from, keeping score starts to feel a lot like losing control.

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.

You can run from a place. Not from a person. Two years ago, Valerie Bennett disappeared. One rumor. One secret. One boy who knew the truth. And one betrayal that destroyed everything. Senior year was supposed to be perfect-until something happened that Valerie has spent every day trying to forget. Dean Di Laurentis was the only person she trusted. The only one she told. The only one who promised to protect her. And the only one who could have leaked her secret. At least... that's what she believes. Now, two years later, Valerie transfers to Briar University for a fresh start. New school. New friends. New life. No past. No pain. No Dean. She doesn't know he goes there. She doesn't know he's the star of the hockey team. She doesn't know he's about to walk back into her life like a punch to the chest. Enemies. Lovers. Liars. Survivors. Some stories don't start with love. They start with a name you swore you'd never hear again. TW: contains explicite content, trauma, manipulation ...

Dean Di Laurentis can hook up with anyone on campus. Anyone except Avery Graham. Garrett Graham made that very clear the second his freshman sister stepped foot at Briar University. Which should make staying away easy. Except Avery is sarcastic, stubborn, impossible to ignore, and somehow the only girl Dean can't stop thinking about. Now they're sneaking around behind Garrett's back, hiding feelings that were never supposed to happen, and risking friendships that could blow up the entire hockey house. The worst part? Dean was supposed to be the heartbreak. Not the one falling first.

Eli has never been the type to fade into the background. She owns every stage she steps on loud when it matters, fearless under the lights, and fully aware of the way people look at her when she performs. With a band that's gaining traction and a friend group that feels like chaos and home all at once, Eli is exactly where she's supposed to be. At least, that's what she tells herself. Because lately, something about the music feels... off. The shows are bigger, the crowds louder, but somewhere in between the rehearsals and the late nights, the spark that used to drive her doesn't hit the same. She still performs like she means it she just doesn't always feel it. Then there's Dean Di Laurentis. Confident, infuriating, and impossible to ignore, he wasn't part of the plan. But the more he pushes, teases, and refuses to be just another face in the crowd, the harder it is to brush him off. Around him, things feel sharper. Louder. Real in a way the music hasn't in a while. And that's the problem. Because Eli doesn't need a guy to make her feel something especially not one who comes with complications written all over him. She doesn't chase, she doesn't fall, and she definitely doesn't risk everything she's built for a maybe. But between the music that's starting to mean something again and the tension she can't seem to shake, Eli is forced to question what's actually worth holding onto. [Dean Di Laurentis x Female OC]
