Heated Rivarly

Soren Kade has spent his entire life hearing one thing. Never trust a Valez. For decades, the Kade and Valez families have been locked in a ruthless corporate war that destroyed empires and buried the truth of what really happened that night years ago. So when Soren arrives at Blackridge International University, the last person he expects to see standing in his dorm room is Dante Valez. Arrogant, infuriating and apparently….his new roommate.

Every argument turns into a challenge and every challenge turns into a war. But when sabotage inside the program pushes them into an uneasy alliance, Soren and Dante uncover cracks in the story both their families have believed for decades. The deeper they dig, the more dangerous the truth becomes. And somewhere between late-night strategy sessions, heated arguments, and secrets neither of them meant to share, the line between enemy and something far more complicated begins to blur. Because the one person Soren was raised to hate might be the only person who understands him. And falling for your family’s greatest rival? That’s the kind of mistake that could destroy everything.
