She came to Boston College to become an actress—not fall for the last person she’d ever choose. Y/N has the perfect life on paper: an acting major, two best friends in Alpha Phi, and a boyfriend who’s kind, loyal, and has their future planned down to the last detail. The only problem? She can’t shake the feeling that she’s meant for something… more. Will Smith is everything she can’t stand. Star center of Boston College hockey, campus heartthrob, frat king, and a professional pain in her ass. He’s cocky, charming, and somehow always knows exactly how to get under her skin. When a semester-long communications project forces them to work together, what starts as constant arguments turns into late nights, unexpected conversations, and a connection neither of them saw coming. The more time they spend together, the harder it becomes to ignore one impossible question: Is choosing the safe life the same as choosing the right one? A college enemies-to-lovers romance full of hockey, frat parties, found family, slow burn tension, and the terrifying realization that sometimes growing up means growing out of the life you thought you wanted.
