Katharina Lovel hated her roommate. She hated his ridiculously tall frame, his grey eyes, and most of all, his ever-present smirk.

As days blur into nights filled with stolen glances and accidental confessions, the walls between them start to thin. Somewhere between love and loathing, between comfort and chaos, they find something neither of them were looking for-each other.
