Avery Carter has everything planned. Top grades, the Marston Scholarship, and a flawless senior year. Nothing can ruin it until Eli Reyes walks back into her life.
He is her rival in every sense: confident, competitive, and impossible to ignore. When they are forced to work together on a year-long project, old tensions flare and new feelings begin to surface.
As late nights blur into something more, Avery starts to question what she really wants: perfection, or the one person who challenges her to let it go.

Against My Better Judgment
Avery Sterling didn't come to college for fun. As a fiercely determined pre-med freshman with her entire future riding on academic success, distractions aren't on her agenda-especially not the arrogant star wide receiver who seems to exist just to humiliate her. Grayson Maddox is used to getting what he wants: touchdowns, attention, and girls. But the one girl who doesn't swoon at his smile? She becomes his favorite target. When a teasing comment in class sparks public embarrassment, Avery becomes the focus of his relentless mockery-and she hates him for it. But when the two are unexpectedly paired for a campus mentorship program, everything changes. Forced to spend time together, sparks fly in all the wrong-and then all the right-ways. Behind Avery's walls is a girl who's never allowed herself to fall. And beneath Grayson's swagger is a guy carrying pressure, pain, and a past he doesn't share. The line between hate and something deeper begins to blur-but falling for each other might be the biggest risk of all. 51 chapters will all be out by May 25thLengkap
Extra Credit
Savannah Reyes has her future mapped out: valedictorian, Ivy League acceptance, and zero distractions. Jace Carter is her biggest distraction - the infuriating slacker who somehow matches her grades without lifting a finger. Their rivalry is legendary at West-bridge High, fueled by years of snarky debates, stolen spotlight moments, and mutual loathing. But when their AP English teacher pairs them for a semester-long thesis on "The Psychology of Love in Literature," Savannah and Jace are forced into close quarters - and closer conversations. As they dissect romantic tropes and literary heartbreaks, they begin to see past the personas they've built. Savannah discovers Jace's chaotic home life and quiet resilience, while Jace uncovers the pressure behind Savannah's perfectionism. What starts as a battle of wills turns into late-night study sessions, reluctant laughter, and a slow unraveling of everything they thought they knew - about each other and themselves. With prom approaching, college decisions looming, and emotions running high, Savannah and Jace must decide: is love just another literary cliché, or the one plot twist they never saw coming?
The Rival Hypothesis
Aria Foster has always stood out-not just for her sharp wit and unapologetic confidence, but for dreaming bigger than anyone around her. For her, science is more than grades; it's a way to change the world. But college isn't just experiments and lectures. It's relentless rivalry, especially with Ryan Clark-the brilliant, precise, awkward genius set on joining NASA. They've spent years battling over test scores, research grants, and the spotlight. No one pushes Aria's buttons quite like Ryan, and he's never let anyone challenge his logic-until now. She's daring and unpredictable; he's orderly and disciplined. Both stand on the edge of their dreams, unwilling to lose to the other. One challenge. Two enemies. And a dangerous hypothesis that could blur the line between rivalry and desire-an experiment neither of them is prepared to survive. ✧✧✧ "You love testing me, don't you?" he mutters, grip tightening around her waist. "Maybe I just like watching you lose control," she teases, her lips inches from his. His breath hitches, but his tone stays dangerous. "Careful. You won't like what happens when I finally snap." She leans in, whispering against his mouth. "Try it. I dare you."

Perfect grades, a flawless reputation, and an ironclad determination to be the best-nothing and no one will stand in her way. Except for Augustine Hart. Smug, insufferable, and just as brilliant as she is, Augustine has been her greatest competition since freshman year. No matter how hard she pushes, he pushes right back, matching her step for step, refusing to let her win. Their rivalry is the only thing that's ever felt certain. But senior year has other plans. Forced into unwanted proximity, late-night study sessions, and tension-filled arguments, Seraphina starts to realize that Augustine isn't just her competition-he's a challenge she can't quite figure out. And maybe, just maybe, she doesn't want to. "𝗜'𝗺 𝗻𝗼𝘁 𝗼𝗯𝘀𝗲𝘀𝘀𝗲𝗱 𝘄𝗶𝘁𝗵 𝘆𝗼𝘂. 𝗜 𝗷𝘂𝘀𝘁 𝗹𝗶𝗸𝗲 𝘄𝗮𝘁𝗰𝗵𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝗹𝗼𝘀𝗲." Augustine has spent years playing this game with Seraphina, never letting her get the last word, never letting her win too easily. But the more time they spend together, the more he wonders if this thing between them-this constant push and pull-isn't about winning at all. Because if Seraphina Ramirez is his biggest challenge, then falling for her might be his biggest mistake. So what happens when the rivalry that defined them starts to unravel? When the lines blur and the rules no longer apply? What happens when the only thing more dangerous than losing... is wanting to?Lengkap
