Kacie Marie Love is the girl who's always got it together-from coding complex algorithms to hitting every mark on the dance floor. But beneath the calm exterior is a daughter grieving her mother, a young Black woman navigating a PWI, and a college sophomore trying to stay focused in a world that doesn't always see her.

Xavier Quinn Allen is a campus football star with NFL dreams, but legacy isn't always a blessing. With the weight of his family's expectations on his back and a future that feels more chosen for him than by him, Xavier is stuck between the version of himself the world wants-and who he actually is.

When the football and dance teams are forced to train together, their first meeting is anything but smooth. But somewhere between the early morning drills, game day sidelines, and late-night conversations under campus lights, something shifts.

This isn't just about chemistry.
It's about understanding.
It's about healing.
It's about a connection neither of them expected-but both of them need.

When We Collide is a slow-burn Black college romance about grief, growth, and the kind of love that changes everything.All Rights Reserved

Seneca State University - Sophomore Year - The Beginning by KatWriterSF

Cathy Sanova is a beautiful, intelligent, Black student who just transferred from a small community college to the most prestigious university in California. Overwhelmed by the large campus, the wealthy students and the fact that she feels totally alone, she begins to think it was a mistake letting her mother talk her into going there, until she befriends Brent Jaggers, the university's star quarterback. Who is this overconfident, wealthy, all-American looking, White boy who just won't leave her alone? Doesn't he know they are from two different worlds and she has no business being in his. And yet, the stubborn man refuses to leave her alone even has the nerves to claim her as "his" even though they aren't dating. He's demanding, overconfident, walks the campus like he owns it and he's decided to own her too. He challenges her and shows her there is more to her than just being a shy student hiding behind her books. As frustrating as he is, Cathy finds herself falling for a man she knows she can never truly have. You can read the rest of the summary in the "Introduction" page.

Domestic Love by TallProud

Maeve Anderson had a perfect life. She was popular, rich, beautiful, and one of the top cheerleaders at her school. She could get any guy she wanted--and did--not caring to keep them for longer than one night. Her life really couldn't get any better than this; at least, that's what she thought. When Maeve has to team up with the Luke Flemming, the school's playboy, for their school's annual homecoming events, she knows she's in for a trip. He's a narcissistic football player who toys with girls' hearts just as easily as Maeve could make a boy fall under her spell. While they played in the same field, Maeve's approach to life was nothing like Luke's. She always saw them as too different to really get along but, after a few weeks of finally deciding to make a truce, Maeve realizes they may be more alike than she thinks. The pair go from decorating posters to hanging out unexpectedly and suddenly, it feels like all that Maeve had before wasn't all it was cut out to be. The only thing left is for her to believe it's real, but can she, when she's never known this feeling in all her life? Follow Maeve and Luke as they journey together to learn about the hardships of life, friendship, and what true love really is.

Potentially You and Me (Two Truths and a Lie) by lalalalawriting

★ NOW PUBLISHED! ★ What do you get when you add the ultimate meet cute + a bruised head? = A whole can of heartbreak. It all starts in aisle three. Lacie O'Connor prefers to see the world in black and white, logical, rational, and natural, like her biology major. She just wants to survive her freshman year of college, but first she must find a can of peas. Instead, she gets hit on the head with a box of cake mix. Trent Montgomery is all saturated and technicolor even in the maroon employee polo. Lacie thought she left him and his sheepish smiling friend at the grocery store but finds him in her most dreaded class: Intro to Philosophy. He sits next to her, and it's all PLATOnic until he presses his foot up against hers. That's all it takes for her to get lost in the philosophy of Trent. What starts out as sidewalk conversations soon leads to study sessions that transform to cuddle sessions that transform to make-out sessions. But just before winter break, Trent steps back. He dodges her texts. He kisses her in private but blows her off in public. Lacie knows miscommunication and mixed signals spread like an invasive plant species, but what she can't figure out is which version of Trent is real. The one she met in aisle three, or the one who likes to get drunk in dorm building basements. © 2015 ℓαℓαℓαℓαwriting © 2019 ℓαℓαℓαℓαwriting |Edited/NEW| © 2022 Published version All Rights Reserved |Third Place Winner in #Readytoreadya2018 Young Adult Reads Contest|

Say You're Mine and Mean It by iamsavvymonet

SAY YOU'RE MINE AND MEAN IT Desmond Matrice keeps her head down, her shot clean, and her heart out of reach. Raised on survival and silence, she's built for pressure-on the court and in life. But when a honey-skinned cheerleader with too much lip gloss and not enough boundaries sets her sights on her, Desmond's routine starts to slip. Haylen Blakemoor is used to getting what she wants. And what she wants is Desmond-cool, quiet, unreadable Desmond. The girl who won't flirt back but never looks away. The girl who moves like control, but kisses like chaos. What starts with hallway glances and late-night FaceTimes turns into sleepovers, sideline tension, and a love that refuses to wait its turn. Desmond's afraid to need. Haylen needs too much. And neither of them is backing down. This isn't just a campus love story. It's about claiming what's yours. And holding on-harder, louder, deeper. If you say it, you better mean it.
