The Seat You Left Me

Maya Reyes didn't plan on making enemies on her first day at Westbrook University. She definitely didn't plan on stealing the lacrosse captain's seat in the dining hall and then refusing to move.
Liam Carter has spent two years being exactly who everyone expects him to be , composed, focused, untouchable. Since his very public breakup, he's kept to himself. He doesn't need complications.
But Maya isn't trying to complicate anything. She's just tired, new, and really needs to eat her cereal.
What starts as an accidental run-in turns into a semester-long sociology project, late nights in a hidden library room, a slowly-completed map of Middle-Earth, and two people who are both very good at building walls - until they're not.
A story about figuring out who you are after you've spent too long being who someone else needed. About second chances that don't announce themselves. And about the small, quiet moments that matter more than the dramatic ones.
No insta-love. No love triangles. Just two messy, real people trying to be honest with each other.
