After two years of being controlled, manipulated, and constantly second-guessed in a toxic relationship, Amari swears off love for good. She moves across the city to start over, keeping everyone at arm's length and pretending she's finally okay. Then she meets Kairo. Kairo is the type of stud that loves hard, too hard maybe. Protective, touch-starved, obsessed with being needed, and willing to do whatever it takes to make Amari smile again. Where Amari pulls away, Kairo chases. Where Amari hides her pain, Kairo wants to carry it for her. But healing somebody and loving somebody are two different things. As Amari learns how to trust again, Kairo's intense way of loving starts blurring lines between devotion and obsession. And when Amari's toxic ex refuses to let go, both of them are forced to decide how far they're willing to go for love. Sometimes the people who love the hardest can hurt the hardest too.

Salae Amira Bennett came to college with a plan. Graduate. Become a neonatologist. Keep her hair laid, lip gloss popping, and maybe find a girlfriend that actually treats her right for once. Simple. But moving into an off-campus house near Peachtree State University with five strangers quickly proves that nothing about college is simple. Especially when one of those strangers is Aaliyah "Liyah" Monroe. Tall. Calm. Flirty. Annoyingly observant. And for some reason... always staring at Salae. At first they can't stand each other. Too many smart comments. Too much tension. Too many arguments in the kitchen at 2AM. But the more time they spend in the same house, the harder it becomes to ignore the pull between them. Between messy friends, ex drama, jealousy, late night confessions, and emotions neither of them fully understand... Salae and Liyah might realize something dangerous: Sometimes the person you swear you'd never fall for... is already unintentionally yours.

Ashanti Leneé Duvan is tired. Tired of college. Tired of fake connections. Tired of people not taking her seriously. A junior in college working toward becoming a psychologist, Ashanti is already overwhelmed-and the semester barely started. Between her anxiety, academic pressure, and a love life full of unserious hoes, she's starting to wonder if she is the problem... or if people just can't handle her. Then there's Chase Tavonii Jackson. A fine, nonchalant stud with tattoos from head to toe, a successful tattoo shop, and a girlfriend she probably shouldn't have. Chase doesn't do feelings-she does distance, rules, and cheating before she can get hurt again. One slutterparty. One shared bedroom. One twenty-minute dare. Boundaries get set. Lines get crossed. And neither of them is ready for what happens when attraction turns into something real. Sometimes the people who swear they don't want you... want you the most.
