Robin Sinclair has always been the odd one out at Westbridge University-a small, elite college where status and wealth rule the social scene. She doesn't care that she doesn't fit in. She has her books, her joy, and a quiet existence that steers clear of the rich, entitled players who think they own the campus. Especially Pierce Lancaster.

Pierce has everything-money, looks, and a reputation that guarantees he's never alone. He's cocky, rude, and completely uninterested in Robin... until they're forced to work together on a project neither of them wants. She's too cheerful, too stubborn, too unaffected by his usual attitude. And worst of all? She gets under his skin in a way no one ever has.

What starts as petty insults and sarcastic banter soon turns into something neither of them saw coming. Pierce finds himself drawn to the one girl who refuses to fall for him, and Robin realizes the last person she should want is the one she can't seem to resist.

Love wasn't in either of their plans. But sometimes, the best things come straight out of left field.

Teach Me Not to Fall by TheNovelist28
56 parts Ongoing Mature
Eva Graham is a guarded, no-nonsense social science major who studies human behavior to understand why people leave-and how to make sure she never lets the wrong ones in. She keeps to herself, avoids drama, and especially avoids campus athletes, whom she considers walking red flags. Cole Grayson is a third-year psychology major, a cocky ice hockey star with a grin that disarms and a fanbase full of puck bunnies. While everyone sees him coasting, Cole's under constant pressure-trying to go pro, balancing school, and keeping up a charming front to hide just how much he's cracking underneath. When Cole starts slipping in class, he's assigned a tutor: Eva. Neither is thrilled. She thinks he's a loud, lazy distraction. He calls her "Teach" just to get under her skin-she responds by calling him "Skates," with just the right amount of disdain. What begins as bickering soon turns into banter... then something softer. The nicknames stick, becoming a quiet thread that ties them together as friends-and maybe more. Cole falls first. Hard. Eva, scared of being hurt and shaped by people who've left before, fights it. Still, she agrees to go to one of his games-just once. But seeing him on the ice, in his world, adored yet somehow still alone, shifts everything. Then the bet surfaces. A stupid, careless thing made before he really knew her-and it threatens to destroy everything they've built. Surrounded by puck bunnies stirring drama, teammates with their own loyalties, and a past Eva isn't ready to share, the fragile trust between them begins to crack. Between jealousy, late-night confessions, and moments where one look says everything, Eva and Cole must decide: is love worth risking it all-even if it started with a bet, a nickname, and everything going wrong?

On Thin Ice

47 parts Complete

Book five in the Westbridge U Series She's chaos in heels. He's control on ice. Childhood rivals turned lovers-if they don't burn it all down first. Ava Sinclair has never been the girl who plays it safe. Bold, sharp-tongued, and fiercely independent, she's the kind of storm you see coming-and still can't resist. She doesn't believe in fairy tales, especially not the kind that start with a cocky hockey player and end with happily ever after. Brooks Lawson has been driving her crazy since they were kids. The golden boy of the Dallas Stars is all swagger, tattoos, and trouble, hiding his scars behind a smirk and skating like he's got something to prove. Their rivalry was legendary growing up-but when fate throws them back together, the tension between them takes a very different turn. Their connection is fire. Their past is complicated. And their future? It's waiting... if they're brave enough to fight for it. Through heartbreak, healing, and the chaos of life, Ava and Brooks learn that love isn't about perfection-it's about choosing each other again and again. Even when it's messy. Especially when it's real. A sizzling, emotional, slow-burn romance about childhood enemies, second chances, found family, and a love that refuses to quit.
