Mature
Grier Hansley thought she had the perfect life until betrayal strikes from the two people she trusted the most. Shaken by the revelation, she decides to chart a new course, forsaking relationships entirely. 

Enter Kai Faulkner, the renowned anti-relationship aficionado and self-proclaimed serial dater here at Chapin Hill boarding school. In a bold move, Grier proposes a no-strings-attached arrangement, convinced that emotions are a complication she can't afford.

But as lines blur and boundaries shift, Grier finds herself navigating uncharted territory. With new friendships blossoming and old ones tested, she and Kai must confront family dramas, toxic exes, and even a stalker threatening their fragile connection. As obstacles pile up, Grier and Kai must ask themselves: can they overcome the odds and find the deeper connection they both crave, or will challenges from outsiders tear them apart before they have a chance to truly come together? Grier and Kai are about to discover just how far they're willing to go for each other.

Penalty Kill by slowlysettingsun
45 parts Ongoing Mature
With her nose in books and his brawn getting him nowhere on or off the ice, they find themselves drawn together, sharing their baggage and behaving badly. Jake Bryers is no stranger to the pressures of being a professional hockey player. In fact, it's something that he's dealt with consistently for the past fifteen years. Throughout his career, he's experienced it all-the unbelievably electric thrill of winning divisions and conference titles, and even making it to the Stanley cup Finals on more than one occasion. His dream was always to skate the cup at least once, but as he enters the late stage of his long, tumultuous career, he finds himself struggling to perform like he once had as a younger, inspired player. Harper Clark has been proficient at one thing throughout her life-constantly moving forward without really going anywhere. After having moved to the Big Apple to pursue a more exciting life outside of the lonely one she found herself leading in the Midwest, she herself stagnating after getting her degree from Columbia, she finds herself continuing to quietly enjoy her job at the public library, treading water while the undeniable feeling of discontent grows stronger within her. It's nothing short of fate when Jake and Harper happen to cross paths at the library, and though their lives couldn't be any more different, they find themselves inexplicably drawn to one another in a magnetic pull that neither of them can understand. As much as they try to fight what seems to be the universe bringing them together, what one lacks the other has in abundance, and no amount of avoidance keeps them apart.
