But in a city where pride burns hotter than love and rules are made to be broken, what starts as a cold arrangement begins to melt into something neither of them planned for.

Every day in their shared space crackles with banter, clashes, and moments that catch her off guard. As Ridhi navigates a new country and a new version of herself, living with him becomes equal parts chaos and curiosity. In a city that feels unfamiliar, will this clash turn into something she never planned?

Elsa just needs a simple solution for her high school reunion, nothing complicated, nothing emotional, just a date that gets her through the night.

Then her teacher, Mr. Coleson, calmly slides a stack of papers toward her and admits he isn’t just grading. He’s her father’s bodyguard. So now Lilly’s got a gorgeous, rule-breaking adult shadowing her hallways, a rich gym boy watching her like he already owns the view, and bullies who love an audience. She should hate the attention—she does hate it—which makes it worse when her skin still prickles. And you know that moment when you can feel gossip being born? Yeah, that. Coleson walks her out after school, fingers brushing her elbow like it’s nothing, and every head turns. “Lilliana Lorenzo?” the front office calls.
