Rye Adrien Navarro and Ashriel Mateo De Vera were raised to hate each other.
Born into rival architectural dynasties torn apart by a scandalous betrayal-a stolen design, a public lawsuit, and a friendship shattered. Their names have always stood on opposite ends of every competition, every award, every whispered debate in the world of architecture.
Thirteen years after their last encounter, fate throws them back together at the prestigious Salazar College of Architectural Design (SCAD). Now fourth-year students, they're forced to co-lead a year-long thesis project, an ambitious, sustainable community housing design that could launch their future or burn everything down.
Refusing to work together would destroy their reputations. But working together?
That might just destroy their walls.
Rivalry isn't the only thing they've inherited. There's pain. Pride. And maybe-just maybe-something unfinished.
Can two enemies rewrite a legacy built on resentment and rivalry?
When blueprints are stained with blood and bitterness, can you still draw something beautiful?
Can you build a future with someone whose name was written into your past like a scar?

Crashing Into YOU
Brielle Stone (19) Freshman communications major at UCLA. A mix of chaos and charm. Streetwear, crop tops, hoodies, and heels. She works out religiously, the gym is her therapy, the one place she feels in control. Behind the confident smile and smoky eyeliner is a girl still learning how to breathe. Her parents have always decided everything for her : her grades, her friends, her image. The rebellion came late, but it came loud. Smoking. Parties. People she never texts back. Freedom is her quiet revenge. She wants to be a social media manager : something that's hers, something creative, something free. She's got confidence that fills a room; baggy cargos one day, tiny black dress the next. Hiphop playlists, lip gloss, and gym sessions are her therapy. She's not soft, not easy to impress, and not about to fall for a guy like Asher... or so she tells herself. Asher Kane (20) Second-year business major and UCLA's soccer star. He's the kind of guy who walks into a room and people notice, not because he tries, but because he just owns it. He's 6'1, athletic, with that casual designer look, chains, crisp shirts, and sneakers worth more than some cars. He vapes between classes, drinks to forget his father's expectations, and smokes when the pressure builds. Soccer is his escape, his one rebellion against the life planned for him: taking over the family's international business empire. Soccer is his life... until Brielle starts to mess with his focus in ways he didn't expect. Everyone thinks he's the confident, flirtatious bad boy. But he's just trying to hold himself together.
Lie to Him, Moan for Me! +18
PERFECT LIFE. PERFECT BOYFRIEND. All it took was his best friend transferring back to turn her world upside down. Maya has everything she's ever wanted-a devoted boyfriend, a steady future, a love story that's supposed to last. Liam is safe, familiar, right. Then Nathan shows up. Liam's best friend. Cold, sharp, impossible to ignore. From the start, he gets under her skin, challenging her, frustrating her-tempting her in ways she refuses to acknowledge. She hates him. He doesn't like her either. At least, that's what they keep telling themselves. But tension has a way of unraveling, and some lines-once crossed-can never be undone. "We shouldn't," he breathes against my lips. But he doesn't move away. "I don't care," I whisper back... π₯ Mature Content | Slow-Burn | Enemies to Forbidden Lovers π₯Complete

What's the worst that can happen when you're forced to co-captain with your rival? Nova Shields can't stand Leo Hendrix. She hates his arrogance and obnoxiousness, that crooked smirk he does when he thinks he's right. Leo can't stand Nova's wits, the way she folds her arms and quirks her eyebrows. The way he can never read what's happening behind those green eyes. After a combined black operation was almost sent awry in '99 as a result of their constant disagreements, the pair vowed to never work alongside each other again. That is until Leo's partner suddenly loses his life in '02, leaving Commander North no choice but to bring in the only officer capable of filling the void: Nova. Their partnership ignites with animosity, a consequence of the lingering grudge. They can't seem to find that comradeship the Commander longed for.

Project You
Adrienne Lace's life was a mess. A big mess. A 22 year old college student who was not only financially struggling, she was emotionally struggling too, a girl with no friends other than her novels and thoughts which unfortunately did not make for good company. She had so much to pay for, always had so much to do, helping her mother, her grandmother and herself all at once. She was drowning, sinking so damn low, and she wasn't sure if she wanted to swim back up anymore. That is until she's paired up with her antithesis, Karsen Krist, for an assignment that will cost them most of their grade in their final year of college. Unlike Adrienne, Karsen was rich, happy, the college's star football player who as she spends more time with realizes is not as horrible as she thought he'd be, and actually, is just as human as she is. Except that he is much too talkative, too flirty, too smart, too sweet and unfortunately, a little too... desirable. But when you've been in a box so long, it becomes your new home, whether it's comfortable or not. Will he be able to get her out of that box? Or will all their potential end up going in vain? *** #1 in books #1 in art #1 in reversegrumpyxsunshine #1 in collegeromance #1 in player #1 in forcedproximity #1 in flirty #1 in grumpygirl #1 in project #1 in opposites #1 in growth
