Across the Hallway

A companion sequel to Across the Driveway, but can be read as a standalone.

Lara Jay has always believed that some things can't be stitched back together.

Trust.

Family.

Love.

Jax Ravi was never supposed to become one of them.

Ten days before freshman year, one argument destroyed everything they had spent months building.

Now they're both starting over at UC Davis.

Or at least, they try to.

Instead, they discover their apartment doors are directly across the hallway from each other.

Close enough to hear every goodbye.

Close enough to avoid every hello.

Walking away would be easy...

...if they hadn't already signed a contract that forces them to play UC Davis's newest power couple.

Smile for the cameras.

Hold hands for the brand.

Pretend nothing happened in August.

But the longer they fake a relationship they already lost, the harder it becomes to ignore the past.

Because maybe the hardest part of losing your first love...

...is living twenty feet away from them.
