Julianna Macey craves freedom from her parents' home, where living during her undergraduate years has isolated her from her social circle. When her friend Carlo dangles the opportunity to join a student apartment, she seizes it without hesitation. Her relief shatters when she discovers her roommate situation: Carlo, plus three additional housemates—Kyle, Mark, and Kent. The real shock comes from Kent, who seems determined to make her life miserable. He deliberately sabotages the kitchen, ignores her completely, and treats the apartment like his personal domain. Attraction and animosity collide when Juls realizes Kent is undeniably attractive, yet they clash at every turn. Regret creeps in as she questions her impulsive decision, but her year-long lease traps her in this chaotic arrangement. As tension simmers between them, Juls becomes obsessed with understanding what sparked Kent's obvious disdain. Can two people who can't stand each other find common ground, or will twelve months of forced proximity only deepen their divide?
