Collide is a slow-burn war of wills, packed with sharp banter, stolen glances, and tension so thick it could snap at any moment. Sophie and Ethan aren't just enemies-they're obsessed with outdoing each other, pushing limits, and pretending their chemistry doesn't exist.

There are late-night arguments that turn too quiet, challenges neither of them refuses to back down from, and way too many instances of them getting too close and then pretending it meant nothing. Expect jealousy-laced stares across the room, reckless dares, and a magnetic pull they fight against until it finally wins.

Add in a chaotic friend group watching it all unfold, college parties where lines get blurred, a history of messy emotions, and just enough longing to make it hurt-and you've got a love story that's as addictive as it is infuriating.

5 parts Ongoing
When Sophie Bennett arrives at prestigious Westbrook University for her freshman year, she's ready for the classic college experience: new friends, late-night study sessions, and maybe even romance. What she's not ready for is to find Jake Carter unpacking his stuff in what's supposed to be her single dorm room. Due to a catastrophic housing system glitch during peak enrollment, they've both been assigned to Room 304 in the co-ed Arlington Hall-and with every dorm on campus filled to capacity and a housing waitlist stretching into next semester, they're stuck together. Sophie is a driven psychology major with color-coded planners and dreams of becoming a therapist, while Jake is a laid-back architecture major who takes life as it comes, with a sketchbook always in hand and a tendency to stay up until 3 AM working on projects. Living in impossibly close quarters means witnessing each other at their most vulnerable-Jake walking around shirtless after morning showers, Sophie in oversized t-shirts with sleep-mussed hair, stolen glances that linger too long, and an accidental kiss during a moment of weakness that they both agree to forget (even though neither of them can). As they navigate the electric tension crackling between them, establish ground rules that become harder to follow, and pretend that sharing a room with someone you're wildly attracted to is totally normal, Sophie and Jake discover that the line between roommates and something more isn't just blurred-it's completely erased. By the time they finally stop fighting what's been building between them since day one, they'll realize that sometimes the best things in life are the ones you never saw coming, and that falling in love with your roommate might just be the perfect disaster.

"You just have no idea." His voice was thick with restraint. "W-what," I breathed. His gaze flicked to my lips as his thumb stroked again. The calloused pad against my soft flesh sent goosebumps down my arms. His once warm eyes were dark as they lifted and bared into my soul. "What you do to... men." His husky whisper weakened my knees. I almost fell but his other hand settled on my hip, pulling me closer to him. "What you do to me," he added on a breath. The hand on my jaw shifted. His fingers left trails of tingles as he slipped them back slowly, under my earlobe and into my curls. *************************************************** As a young girl, Charlotte Avery's favourite pass time was daydreaming about her Prince Charming: Archer Johnson.

Sophie Connelly is the type of girl to settle down. She doesn't see the point in being with someone and not seeing a future with them. The one hookup that she had ended with her immediately blocking him and drowning in her tears. But she started to forget about that when she met the guy she believed she would marry one day, a year and a half later. Sadly, he cheated on her, leaving her to feel broken beyond repair. Not only that, but after a year of them being separated, he still decides to make her life a living hell by constantly showing off his new girlfriend to her whenever he can, despite them going to different universities. All Sophie wants is to make him feel as hurt as he makes her feel, and luckily for her, the school's star hockey player is willing to make that dream come true. Sean Hollister has been special his entire life. He has a raw, natural talent for hockey, which makes him stand out from his brothers and is a perfect target for his dad's desire to have a son whom he can shape into a mini him. Still, Sean doesn't feel or act as if he is a "star" with major potential. Yet, that's not where his problems end. Due to his skill, Sean is a pretty well-known figure across campus and is very popular whether he likes it or not, and because of this, he finds himself stuck talking about a girlfriend he doesn't have whenever girls try getting with him. Unfortunately, those stories came back to bite him in the ass, and now he's stuck trying to convince an extremely stubborn girl that he's not available. So when he finds out that a pretty girl needs help getting revenge on her ex, who happens to be on the school's rival hockey team, he jumps at the opportunity to help.
