Reverie

Brightfall University dazzles in daylight, seminars buzzing, jerseys snapping in the breeze, but after hours it becomes a maze of locked doors, whispered crushes, and perilously tangled hearts. Fresh-faced Ava Leclaire barrels into that world head-first, certain the brooding football coach Diago Medina is the epic love she’s been waiting for. She haunts his flood-lit gym and practice field, determined to crack the armor his past still welds around him, even if every victory costs her another piece of composure.

Across the quad, gentle-smart Eleanor Adams and quick-witted Tristan Medina dance around a years-long slow burn neither will name. Eleanor steadies Tristan’s restless humor; Tristan coaxes her out of the corners, but both fear the moment teasing turns into truth. Their private stalemate only deepens when Tristan begins late-night sessions with campus therapist Dr. Sophia Hale, a secret-keeper whose professional calm frays under her own forbidden longing for Tristan’s powerful father, Dean Davros Medina.

Meanwhile, dazzling yet uncertain Camila Rivera is swept into a storm of Medinas all her own: years of idolizing Davros, reckless nights with eldest son Diago, and an unexpected, soul-deep tenderness with middle brother Vincent, the first man to offer her the devotion she thought impossible. As late-night scrimmages, library alcoves, and festival fireworks weave these six lives together, Reverie unfolds as a lush, spicy coming-of-age tale where every stolen glance has consequences and nobody leaves Brightfall without learning how thrilling, and dangerous, it is to play for keeps.
