In her first year of college, Emma, a reserved and driven young woman, is content staying in the background-until fate seats her next to Liam, the college's charismatic star soccer player. With his dazzling looks, easy charm, and a reputation that precedes him, Liam is everything Emma wants to avoid. But his persistence, playful banter, and unexpected depth begin to unravel her carefully guarded walls.
As sparks fly and hearts clash, their connection is tested by jealousy, betrayal, and their own insecurities. When a scheming rival drives them apart, Emma and Liam must confront their feelings and fight for what they truly want. From the magic of a school dance to a stormy confession in the rain, "Chasing Heartbeats" is a heartfelt tale of love, redemption, and second chances.
With themes of vulnerability, forgiveness, and self-discovery, this emotional romance will leave you cheering for two opposites destined to find their way back to each other.
Evie is an introvert who just wants to focus on her studies and keep her life simple. Alex is the outgoing, charming soccer star everyone loves, especially his teammates and classmates. When they get paired together for a year-long project in their major, sparks fly, but mostly the annoying kind.
At first, they can barely stand each other. Evie resents Alex's easy confidence and endless energy, while Alex struggles to understand Evie's quiet world. But as deadlines loom and late nights in the library pile up, they start to see the person beneath the surface.
Slowly, coffee runs, shared laughs, and late-night study sessions turn into something neither expected. Yet, between soccer games, work shifts, and busy schedules, they're forced to find a fragile balance, and maybe, just maybe, a chance for more than just a project partnership.
Can two people so different learn to trust each other and discover what it really means to be a team?
