But one accidental collision sets off a whirlwind of spikes, secrets, and unexpected feelings that just might pull him into the spotlight for good. *** Evan has spent his entire life living in the shadow of his twin brother and volleyball prodigy, Ethan Reed. And to be honest? He likes it there. No expectations, no pressure, just quiet. That is, until one day he trips and falls into a boy, and subsequently triggers a highly dramatic series of events that starts with him reluctantly joining the volleyball team, and ends with him dating his brother's best friend. (And unfortunately, after all of it, he's still on the volleyball team.) *** NOW COMPLETED

Warren Han is deaf, patient, and over being underestimated. Raymond Wayne is the school's golden boy. Cocky, cruel, and hiding more than anyone knows. They're supposed to hate each other. But after one unexpected night, Ray ends up sleeping in the bed of the boy he's been tormenting at school. Nothing's the same after that. Group projects. Secret glances. Rumors in the locker rooms. Teammates watching too closely. And a house that starts to feel safer than home. With outside pressures closing in, and problems neither can outrun, getting a little too friendly might cost them everything. Art Credits/Cover: bloomuffinomnom on ig

Everyone at school knows Renee West. Captain of the cheer team. Glamorous. Untouchable. The kind of confidence people either admire... or envy. When she walks down the hallway, conversations pause. Phones tilt. Heads turn. She owns the room without even trying. And then there's Elliot Arionson. Quiet. Stubborn. Razor-sharp attitude. The loner who makes it painfully clear he has zero interest in being associated with "the clique." He doesn't chase popularity. He doesn't play nice. And he definitely doesn't care about reputations. They exist in two completely different worlds. Until those worlds collide.

From after-school snack runs and late-night study sessions to summer beach trips and festivals under the fireworks, their world becomes filled with laughter, chaos, and moments that feel like they'll last forever.
