Love, Chaos, and Other Bad Ideas.
Kenny McGivern built a tech empire but never learned to keep promises. Claudia Menezes wants a ring; Melanie Costa wants the old, dangerous Kenny back. Their messy, magnetic love triangle sets off petty wars and grand, awkward salvations across four tangled families-McGivern, Costa, Hartwell, and Blake-where loyalty looks like practical jokes and cutlery gets thrown with feeling. Sloane Hartwell and Poojin "PJ" Desai are the slow-burn undercurrent: grease-streaked flirts, stolen playlists, and a tenderness both refuse to name out loud. Addie and the Hartwells bring chaos and art; the Costas bring history, theatrics, and bruising honesty. Darius and Noelle Blake sign up to be guardians and inherit Veronica-a brilliant, untamed fourteen-year-old who runs the house like a minor dictator; parenting her becomes a crash course in boundaries, humility, and accidental love. This is an ensemble comedy-drama about wedgies and apologies, sabotage and forgiveness-about chosen family that's loud, sharp, and oddly soft at the center. If you want messy romance with teeth, messy grown-ups trying to grow up, and a teen who rearranges everyone's priorities-welcome home.
Hate Me Like You Mean It
Camille Hayes is perfect-at least, that's what everyone thinks. Cold, disciplined, and academically untouchable, she has her future mapped out with no room for distractions. Jordan "Jordy" Carter is the exact opposite: rebellious, effortlessly charming, and a notorious slacker who coasts by on wit alone. The only thing they have in common? Mutual loathing. When their strict teacher forces them into a tutoring arrangement, their study sessions become battlegrounds of sarcasm and eye-rolls. Camille can't stand Jordy's lazy attitude, and Jordy delights in getting under Camille's skin. But when a late-night cram session exposes vulnerabilities neither of them expected, their dynamic shifts from rivalry to something far more complicated. As insults turn into teasing and stolen glances linger a little too long, Camille and Jordy find themselves facing a terrifying possibility: maybe their biggest distraction isn't school at all-it's each other.Complete

Somebody Wrote Me This Way
Enemies to lovers (possibly?) Addison has one rule: avoid the main characters. She's perfectly fine being the background extra in her own high school story - hoodie up, chocolate milk in hand, garlic bread as emotional support. No drama. No clichés. Definitely no "mysterious transfer student with tragic eyes" sitting next to her. But then Hikaru Nakamura shows up. And Avery - perfect hair, perfect laugh - joins the same class. And Jackson, the school's resident chaos magnet, suddenly notices her after one clumsy accident in the hallway. Now Addison's worst nightmare is happening: She's being dragged into a love triangle she never auditioned for. Armed only with sarcasm, self-awareness, and a strong refusal to participate in this rom-com nonsense... Addison might just have to survive being the unwilling heroine of a story she never wanted. All she's ever wanted is to be invisible.
