Catching Feelings, Captain: An Enemies-to-Lovers Romance

By Lessandra Canavan

She swore she'd never trust a popular guy again. He swore he didn't have time for feelings. Neither of them planned on each other.

Kennedy Clark came to college with one rule: nobody finds out she's related to Gage Clark, campus golden boy and the brother she loves but refuses to live in the shadow of. After a humiliating betrayal back home turned her into a punchline, all she wants is a fresh start - no drama, no boys, no chance of becoming anyone's joke again.

Then she meets Shay Coleman.

Football captain. Reputation a mile long. Everything she swore she wasn't interested in - until a flooded pool, a pair of broken glasses, and an accidental project partnership turn her sworn enemy into the person she can't stop thinking about. Shay isn't who the rumors say he is. He's smarter, kinder, and far more guarded than anyone on this campus realizes - and Kennedy might be the only person who's ever bothered to look past the jersey.

But secrets have a way of catching up. As Kennedy's carefully buried past collides with Shay's own painful history, and a darker threat on campus puts everyone she cares about in danger, the two of them have to decide whether love is worth the risk of being truly known - scars, secrets, and all.

A slow-burn, enemies-to-lovers college romance about the walls we build to survive, and the people brave enough to help us tear them down.

Perfect for fans of slow-burn tension, sibling's-best-friend drama, secret identities, and emotional, character-driven romance with real stakes.
