Aulani is an ambitious student from Texas eager to create a future for herself and determined to succeed in college, nothing or nobody getting in her way until she met him.
Giovani, on the other hand, is raised in Cali. His laid-back attitude and easygoing personality hides a sharp mind and a deep sense of loyalty. He has no interest in conforming to the expectations of the world around him until he met her.
When they're forced to live together in a dorm due to housing issues, their worlds couldn't be more different. Aulani's bougie,disciplined life clashes with Giovani's carefree, nonchalant nature. Between late-night study sessions, unexpected moments and growing tension, their dynamic shifts from uneasy roommates to something more complicated-an unlikely connection neither one expected.
In the end, they may just discover that despite their differences, they're not so different after all. But will they survive the collision, or will their two worlds shatter under the pressure?

This is a sequel to 'Unrequited Love' but can be read as a stand alone. --- "Seriously? An animal zoo?" I ask her incredulously. "Why do you guys have to call it animal zoo? Of course, zoo consists of animals only." she replies in a 'duh' tone. "You could qualify for one as well." I say eyeing her unicorn onesie. "Why? Oh right, because man is a social animal, too." she says thoughtfully with a cute frown between her brows. "You're lame, bambi." I playfully roll my eyes at her. "Pft. Still you love me." she says rolling her beautiful green eyes back at me. Silence surrounds us as soon as those words escape her mouth and she bites her lip. My eyes follow her movement and she swallows hard. "I-I am so-" she stutters with wide eyes frantically looking from left to right. "You're right, bambi. I do." I whisper, cutting her off, with a ghost of a smile tugging at my lips. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Eliza Avenetti changed schools after her best friend Nicholas De Luca moved to Italy to live with his grandparents.
