One girl. Two rivals. A challenge that was never supposed to become real. Now the Rogue and the King are both playing to win—and Maya’s heart is the prize. Maya Bennet has one rule when it comes to men. Never date a jock. She learned that lesson the hard way after a football player took her heart—and her virginity—only to dump her the next day because of a locker-room bet. Since then, Maya has focused on her future: her scholarship, her job, and the quiet life she’s built in the small off-campus house she shares with friends. No athletes. No drama. No heartbreak. Then Logan Hayes moves in. Logan is the university’s hockey star, known across campus as The King—confident, charming, and used to getting what he wants. Suddenly Maya’s peaceful home turns into a revolving door of hockey players, loud parties, and the kind of attention she’s spent years avoiding. But Logan isn’t the one she should be worried about. Next door lives Cole Ryder. Quarterback. Campus legend. The football captain everyone calls The Rogue. Cole Ryder doesn’t lose—on the field or with women. So when Maya refuses to fall for his reputation, Cole does what he does best. He accepts the challenge. What starts as rivalry turns into late-night conversations, stolen kisses, and a connection neither of them expected. But Cole doesn’t do relationships. And Logan is starting to realize the quiet girl next door might be worth fighting for. Because when two powerful men decide they want the same woman… someone is bound to lose. ⸻ Tropes you’ll love • College Romance • Love Triangle • Enemies to Lovers • Forced Proximity • Slow Burn

So, when her twin brother makes her a crazy, bizarre but deliciously sinful offer, she slips on a uniform and takes her place as his twin ‘brother’ at Harrison Park Academy — a chance to restart and feel in control, just until she feels okay again. But HPA has its own rules—and none of them account for bathroom phobias, shared dorms, or accidentally locking eyes with your ridiculously attractive new roommate.
