An Enemies-to-Lovers Forced-Proximity College Romance
She believes he stole her future. He may be the only person who can help her save it.
Scholarship student Elena Cross enters Westbridge University's prestigious innovation competition with one goal: win the prize money and save her mother's struggling bookstore.
Then Roman Vale-the brilliant, arrogant heir to a powerful business empire-presents an idea suspiciously similar to hers.
Elena publicly accuses him of theft. But instead of removing Roman from the competition, the university forces them to combine their projects. Walking away means they both lose everything.
Their unwanted partnership becomes even more complicated when a housing emergency places them together in Room 214-a mysterious former project suite filled with hidden messages, forgotten photographs and secrets connecting their families.
As late-night arguments turn into undeniable attraction, Elena begins to suspect that Roman is not the enemy she believed him to be. Someone else has been controlling their families' story for more than twenty years-and that person will destroy the bookstore, their reputations and anyone who uncovers the truth.
To protect their future, Elena and Roman must decide whether they can trust each other with their deepest secrets-and their hearts.
Because Room 214 remembers everything.
And some doors were never meant to be opened.
The Rival in Room 214 is an emotional enemies-to-lovers college romance featuring academic rivals, forced proximity, a wealthy rebellious hero, a determined scholarship heroine, family secrets, slow-burning attraction, mystery and a satisfying happily-ever-after.
