Mia D'Angelo knows exactly why getting involved with Beau Maxwell is a terrible idea.
Beau is Briar University's golden-boy quarterback. Funny, charming, and notoriously allergic to girlfriends. Mia has already learned the hard way what happens when you let the wrong person get too close, and she has no interest in repeating history - especially not with a guy like Beau.
But after one disastrous first impression, Beau suddenly can't seem to stop thinking about her. And no matter how much Mia tells herself he's annoying, cocky, and absolutely not her type, she somehow keeps running into him anyway. Unfortunately for her, avoiding Beau Maxwell would probably be easier to avoid if he weren't six-foot-three and ridiculously sexy.
A simple arrangement with no strings attached is supposed to make things easy enough. Sex, no feelings, and absolutely no complications. Except the more Mia insists it means nothing, the more Beau starts wanting to prove that maybe it does. But Beau doesn't do relationships, and Mia has no interest in one either. Which becomes a problem when neither of them can seem to stay away.

If you stay - Beau Maxwell
Beau Maxwell is exactly the kind of guy Mia Reyes should stay away from. Too confident. Too charming. And far too used to people falling in love with him. Mia has bigger problems than Briar's popular player. She's trying to focus on college, painting, and a life that's slowly starting to slip out of her control - especially now that her ex-boyfriend refuses to understand the meaning of the word "over." The messages keep coming. The phone calls too. And the fear that was supposed to disappear after the breakup is starting to creep back in. At first, Beau seems like just another chaotic part of campus life - an irritating flirt who always stands a little too close and says things that make it impossible for Mia not to smile. The problem is that Beau Maxwell notices everything. Even the things Mia desperately tries to hide. And the harder she tries to keep her distance, the more Beau starts acting like her safety has suddenly become the most important thing in his life.

Ever since his very public breakup with her ex-best friend in freshman year, Serena Nichols and John Logan have operated on a foundation of unadulterated mutual hatred.

I KNOW IT WON'T WORK, 𝖽𝖾𝖺𝗇 𝖽𝗂 𝗅𝖺𝗎𝗋𝖾𝗇𝗍𝗂𝗌 (ENG)
Brooke Harrington arrived at Briar University with only one goal: to start over from scratch. After years spent in a toxic dance environment that stripped away her passions, leaving her with an eating disorder and breathtaking anxiety, she just wants to fly under the radar. Her only anchor is Soleil, her childhood best friend-the only one who knows her monsters and would do anything to protect her. Brooke's plan is perfect. At least until she runs into Soleil's brother. Dean Di Laurentis is the undisputed king of the campus: hockey star, wealthy, cocky, and used to getting whatever he wants with a smile. Brooke, with her distant attitude and melancholy eyes, is the only girl who has no intention of falling at his feet. Especially because she is his sister's best friend, which makes her categorically off-limits. Yet, between stolen hoodies and intense stares, Dean begins to chip away at her armor, becoming the only one capable of calming her anxiety. But while the chemistry between them becomes impossible to ignore, Brooke keeps repeating a phrase to herself like a mantra, terrified of that whirlwind of emotions: I know it won't work. Will the king of the ice manage to prove to her that breaking all the rules of the game is worth it?

You, me and everything after / Beau Maxwell
Avery Dilaurentis and Beau Maxwell have known each other their whole lives. He's her brother's best friend, and somehow, they've always existed in the same world-without ever crossing the line. But one summer changed everything. Now nothing feels the same, no matter how hard they try to pretend it does. Every look lasts too long, every moment feels loaded, and they're both fighting something they can't say out loud. They're trying to hold onto a simple life that doesn't feel simple anymore-but how long can two people hide what they feel before it all falls apart? Because the truth is, they don't just need each other... they want each other. And the closer they get, the more they have to lose... but at what cost?
