Remi Jha is in the habit of running away from her problems. She never allowed herself to process her dad's death properly. She pretends that her mom's deteriorating drinking habit isn't affecting her. Most of all, she doesn't want to face the fact that she's not strong enough to carry the weight of her family crumbling around her. Her only sanctuary is her job, but when her refuge gets infiltrated by the hot-tempered boy from school, she might just lose her mind.

All Samir Quinn has ever wanted is to play soccer professionally, but after a summer of realization, he needs a break to re-evaluate his career choices. Right now, he just wants to finish high school without any more hurdles, while completing his court-ordered community service at a senior home-a position he surprisingly enjoys. The only downside to that seems to be working under the supervision of Remina Jha, whose holier than thou personality rubs him the wrong way.

Remi and Samir butt heads at every step, but it doesn't take Samir long to realize that the connection he feels with Remi might just be the one thing he's been confident about in a long time. When Remi begins to unravel the person hiding behind Samir's façade, she needs to decide if this spark with him is worth pursuing, or if this is just one other problem she wants to run away from.

Rivaled Hearts by addiew_08
10 parts Ongoing Mature
Meet Tanner Bailey, the typical college jock-towering, broad-shouldered, and always dressed in a tight-fitting letterman jacket that seems like it's barely holding in his inflated ego. His chiseled features and confidence make him the envy of his teammates and the object of many students' admiration, but behind that athletic exterior lies a personality as sour as his smirk. Tanner is the type of guy who relishes in making others feel small, using his popularity and physical prowess to intimidate and belittle anyone he deems beneath him, which is practically everyone. To him, the world revolves around his needs and desires, and anyone who doesn't fall in line is just another target for his bullying. Beneath the surface, he hides a deep insecurity, but he'll never let anyone see it-not if he can keep up his act as the school's golden boy. Meet Harper Avery, a force to be reckoned with-brilliant, beautiful, and always in control. With striking features that could stop traffic, she's the girl everyone notices when she walks into a room. Her style is impeccable, always dressed to impress, and she carries herself with a confidence that turns heads and commands attention. But Harper isn't just a pretty face; she's one of the smartest people you'll ever meet. Top of her class, she excels in everything she puts her mind to, whether it's academics, debate, or any of the numerous clubs she leads. Harper is ambitious, and she knows exactly what she wants in life. She's not afraid to push others to meet her high standards, which can make her come off as bossy or even ruthless at times. Some find her intimidating, and there's no denying that she can be demanding. Tanner and Harper had always been on opposite sides of the schools social spectrum- she couldn't stand his entitled attitude, and he couldn't bear her constant need to prove she was better than everyone else, especially him. To outsiders, they were natural-born enemies, two forces destined to oppose each other.
