When golden girl football captain Pippa Fitz-Amobi comes home from school expecting a normal night, the last thing she anticipates is being thrown into a blended family dinner-especially when her mom's new boyfriend turns out to be the father of Vada Cavell, the quiet, hoodie-wearing girl from school she's shared lingering glances with but never spoken to.

Now forced to live under one roof, with bedrooms separated by a single shared bathroom and a balcony with a view, tensions rise in all the wrong (or right?) ways. Vada is guarded but clever. Pippa is bold, but caught off guard by her unexpected fascination. And when their slow-burning rivalry begins to twist into attraction, the lines between familial obligation and personal desire start to blur.

With snarky banter, late-night run-ins, a teasing little sister who notices everything, and one hot tub that sees more tension than steam, Close Quarters is a swoony, emotionally-charged tale of what happens when proximity turns to passion-and when two opposites can't help but orbit closer and closer.

Will they cross the line? And what happens when that line disappears?
