Roommate Contract: Featuring A Slowburn, Enemies-to-Lovers, Forced Proximity Romance
When fiercely independent law-and-business double major Alodia Lhaevienne Sinclair moves in with three insanely handsome-and ridiculously chaotic-male roommates, she expects noise, clutter, and maybe a few testosterone-fueled arguments. What she doesn't expect is Rhaven Alexandrov Vanchev, the playboy with a sharp tongue, magnetic charm, and a maddening habit of being everywhere she turns.
Tensions rise, sparks fly, and a contract is written: No falling for the roommate.
Too bad rules were made to be broken.
Caught between late-night banter, emotional whiplash, and the messiest, most infuriatingly intimate slowburn imaginable, Alodia finds herself toeing the line between hate and something dangerously close to love. But secrets run deep in this house-and none deeper than the ones Rhaven hides behind his smirk.
What starts as a simple living arrangement becomes a game of hearts, pride, and broken rules.
