Why these tropes fit
Summer moves into a shared house with roommates that include Colin "Fitzy" Fitzgerald, a brooding, tattooed, hockey-playing video-gamer who is best friends with her brother. Their initial dynamic is antagonistic: he sees her as flighty and superficial, which she considers a narrow strike against him, while undeniable sparks simmer between them. The situation is further complicated because Fitzy's best friend has a crush on her. Summer refuses to chase after a man and instead focuses on settling into a new school, dealing with a sleazy professor, and navigating an uncertain future—leaving it up to her brooding roommate to figure out what he's missing.
