Romy Velas doesn't do relationships. She doesn't need anyone-especially not Jace Weston, the annoyingly perfect guy who somehow ends up in her group project. Between his tall, athletic frame and his infuriatingly charming smile, he's the last person she wants to deal with.
But when they're forced into the same friend group, sparks fly in all the wrong ways. Sarcastic jabs, eye-rolls, and tension that's thick enough to cut with a knife-it's clear they can't stand each other.
Except, what if it's not hate? What if it's something else?
As Romy and Jace are pulled closer by forces they can't control, the lines between love and loathing blur. The walls they've built around themselves begin to crumble, and suddenly, it's not just about surviving each other's company. It's about figuring out what happens when the fight between them turns into something neither of them saw coming.
Can they step past the walls they've built and embrace something real? Or will their stubbornness keep them worlds apart?
Sometimes, love is just a little closer than you think...

Endgame For You
I'm not scared of falling, she told him. Just of not being caught. Seventeen-year-old Danica Parker has always survived by staying quiet, staying small, and staying out of the way. But when her mother lands in rehab and Danica is placed in the care of the wealthy, picture-perfect Hayes family, everything changes. Thrown into a world of soft beds, second chances, and a brooding boy with a bruised past of his own, Danica is forced to confront what it means to be seen - and to matter. Kaiser Hayes, once the golden boy of Ridgeview High's soccer team, is now sidelined by injury and bitterness. But when their worlds collide, so does something else: fire. As Danica begins to rebuild the pieces of her broken world - new friends, stolen kisses, whispered confessions in the dark - a phone call from the past threatens to unravel everything. Her biological father, powerful and dangerous, wants something from her... and he won't take no for an answer. This was never supposed to feel like home. But maybe home isn't a place. Maybe it's a person. A heartfelt, slow-burn romance with secrets, scars, and the kind of love that demands to be fought for.Abgeschlossene Geschichte

But what no one knew was the secret. That hate burned into something else when no one was looking. That behind the arguments and sharp stares lived a dangerous, unspoken truth neither of them dared to admit. Enemies. Rivals. Opposites. But sometimes the line between hate and love isn't just thin-it's electric. And one wrong move might set everything on fire.Abgeschlossene Geschichte
𝓑𝓾𝓻𝓷𝓲𝓷𝓰 𝓑𝓵𝓾𝓮 - 𝓢𝓲𝓶𝓸𝓷 𝓢𝓮𝓿𝓲𝓵𝓵𝓮
In which... At the University of Sydney, sparks fly in the lecture halls when Isadora Rodriguez, a sharp-tongued, charismatic overachiever with a wild streak, collides with Simon Seville, the uptight, bespectacled academic perfectionist known for his cold logic and killer grades. What begins as a war of words and one-upmanship-sabotaged presentations, snide remarks, and brainy brawls-quickly spirals into late-night study sessions full of tension, quiet admiration masked as competition, and stolen glances they refuse to admit mean anything. As the year unfolds, the walls come down: Isadora sees past Simon's stoic exterior to the boy who's been pushing himself to exhaustion, desperate for recognition and security. Simon discovers the vulnerability behind Isadora's bold front, the insecurities she hides behind her sarcasm and chaos. There's jealousy. There's denial. There's a moment in the library that almost turns into a kiss. There are rainy nights, blanket forts, drunken confessions, and the quiet realization that they've stopped wanting to win against each other... and started wanting each other. The tension breaks somewhere-with one impulsive, heated kiss that turns into a full emotional unraveling. By the time they admit their feelings, it's messy, beautiful, and absolutely worth every insult hurled. From rivals to reluctant partners, to lovers who now know every version of each other-this is a story of growth, vulnerability, chaos, intimacy, and undeniable love between two people who never expected to fall for the one person who challenged them the most. Enemies to lovers Slow-burn with explosive payoff Fluff hidden under layers of angst and tension Smart people being absolute idiots about their feelings Longing. Pining. Banter. Chaos.Abgeschlossene Geschichte
