Navy Hastings is nothing like her overachieving, soccer/music-obsessed siblings, Viola and Sebastian. She is platinum blonde, unapologetically popular, a little ditsy, and carries a reputation that makes her high school headmaster sweat. But when a scandalous rendezvous on a school golf cart gets her officially expelled, her wealthy parents resort to a desperate, last-minute "tuition experiment"—shipping her off to the prestigious, all-boys Illyria Prep.Due to a massive administrative glitch that logs her into the system simply as N. Hastings, Navy isn’t just enrolled; she is assigned directly into the male dorms. Specifically, right into Room 214.Enter Duke Orsino. Illyria’s hyper-focused soccer captain lives for routine, discipline, and making it to the championships. The last thing he needs is a chaotic blonde invading his personal sanctuary, turning his desk into a makeup vanity, and filling his room with the suffocating scent of vanilla perfume. To survive the semester without getting expelled or teased to death by his teammates, Toby and Andrew, Duke strikes a deal with his new roommate. A literal line of pink duct tape is slapped down the center of the floor: his side is sports, her side is fashion.But as late-night study sessions melt into shared secrets in the dark, the strict boundaries of Room 214 begin to blur. Behind the ditsy exterior and the harsh campus gossip, Duke finds a girl he can't stop thinking about—and Navy realizes the only place she feels truly safe is on Duke's side of the tape.
