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.

When she's paired with Theo, an arrogant psychology student, for a major group project, she's forced into a partnership she'd rather avoid. From their first tense encounter, the chemistry between them is undeniable, but not in a good way. As the semester unfolds, their interactions become a battle of wills - until a party, a stolen glance, and a chance encounter make Aurora realize that her feelings for Theo are more complicated than she ever imagined. Jealousy, frustration, and a slow burn tension heat up between them as they navigate school, their unexpected connection, and the thin line between love and hate. In a world where emotions are as volatile as the pressure to succeed, can Aurora and Theo find a way to work together without destroying each other first?Lengkap

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. That is until they discover how once they work together without disagreeing, arguing and trying to wring each others necks, they can in fact form an unstoppable duo. A duo that transcends the operations they face; that forces them to confront the feelings they've been denying for so long. Feelings that only surface through the betrayals, bloodshed and near death experiences. Feelings that may be accepted, but only when it's too late. Then again, what's the worst that can happen? - UNEDITED Most impressive rankings: #1 in Rivals to Lovers 21/03/24 #1 in Special Ops 23/02/24 #14 in Young Adult 14/01/24 #8 in Enemies 14/01/24 18+ reader age.

Bound by Vows, Freed by Love | Jensen Ackles
Jensen Ackles had built his empire brick by brick, meetings, deals, and late nights in boardrooms were the only constants in his world. Love, family, and vulnerability never fit into the carefully drawn blueprint of his life. That is, until an arranged marriage bound him to you. You weren't a workaholic, but you understood the value of balance, career and family both mattered. Thrust into a marriage with a man who had no space in his heart for anything but ambition, you find yourself caught in a tug-of-war between duty and desire. What begins as cold distance and forced proximity slowly ignites into something neither of you expected: tenderness, trust, and a slow-burn love that shakes the foundations of Jensen's orderly world. With every clash of priorities and every stolen moment of connection, surprises unfold. Will he learn that there's more to life than his next deal? Or will the walls he's built keep you both from discovering what love truly means? (An arranged marriage AU filled with strangers-to-lovers tension, slow-burn intimacy, and a love story neither of you saw coming.)Lengkap
When No One's Watching
He draws constellations on his sneakers and disappears in a crowd like he was never there. The other lights up every room he walks into-too loud, too much, and somehow still lonely. One hides behind silence. The other behind a smile. And when their worlds finally collide, it's not fireworks- It's quiet. Slow. A little bit painful. At a school where people only see what they want to, one boy is being hurt in the moments no one's around. And the only one who sees it? Pretends not to-until he can't anymore. A slow-burn love story about unspoken things, hallway bruises, unshared lunches, and the terrifying softness of being seen. Disclaimer: This story is a work of fiction, inspired in part by real-life observations-moments, people, and dynamics that lingered in memory. While the characters and events are mostly fictional, some emotional experiences were drawn from things I've seen or felt in passing. If any part of the story seems to be similar to another it is unintentional. I also don't own any of the art that you might see all credits go to original owners but if you'd like to use any of the characters please ask first.Lengkap
Where Love Left Scars
"We said goodbye for the sake of growing up. But growing up didn't mean moving on." At Rosebridge University, Mirabel and Caden meet again-not as lovers, but as best friends carrying unspoken history. They broke up in high school when Mirabel's grades slipped, and she blamed the distraction of love. Caden let her go, believing they'd find their way back someday. But now that "someday" is here, everything is more complicated than he ever imagined. She's stronger. He's quieter. And their hearts? Still speaking the language of "what ifs." But in between stolen glances, late-night talks, and buried memories, their story is far from over. Because sometimes, letting go was never the end. It was just the pause before everything changed.Lengkap
The Line We Crossed
THE RULE: Don't fall for your best friend. THE PROBLEM: Liam Cruz. He was my anchor. The one person who understood the mess of blueprints in my head and the frantic beating of my heart. For two years, we had one rule: don't ever cross the line. Our friendship was the most important foundation in my life, and I would never risk it. But then came one party, one rival, and one lie. And the line we were never supposed to cross is the only thing I can see. The space between his bedroom and mine is ten feet of unbearable tension, and I'm not sure how much longer we can pretend not to feel the heat. What happens when your sanctuary becomes your battleground? (Author's note: Hey guys 👋 I have finished writing the whole novel! Hope you enjoy it!)Lengkap
