After all, she's focused on her studies, getting over an ex, and honestly, not that into athletes. Though the more time she spends getting to know her new roommate, the more it becomes apparent that Ethan is the exact type of guy she could fall for. When lines begin to blur and drama from the past threatens to tear them apart, can the two of them find a way to keep both their friendship-and their relationship-from crumbling to pieces?

I don't know what possessed me to do my next action, as I closed the inch of distance between our lips. Perhaps it was floating in the air or rushing through my blood, but just this once before the madness ensued I wanted to kiss him. Maybe I shouldn't have let myself give in for a single moment, but I was only human and he was unlike any man I had met in a long time. Our lips pressed together, eyes closed, arms pressed against his chest as he brought me closer. We moved in sync and this feeling made everything melt away. ________________________________________________ In the middle of editing so two of this symbol ~ . means that a chapter is fully edited minus the few grammar mistakes I'm bound to make, if there's only one ~ then it means that chapter is currently being edited so please don't kill me.
