Blair might be a little type-A, but she never thought of herself as completely overbearing ... that is, until her two best friends drop her from their housing arrangement a week before her pre-college summer coding program is about to start. Blair knows if she switches to an on-campus dorm, her parents will make her give up her expensive sculpture class with her dream mentor in order to pay for it. Desperate, she agrees to be the fifth roommate to four off-campus sophomores who are also in a last-minute bind. But things get complicated when one of her new roommates turns out to be her brother's best friend, Jamie Atwater. Blair begs Jamie not to tell her brother about the new living arrangement. Her brother would go straight to their parents, who would definitely not approve, and all her plans would fall apart. So they strike a deal: she'll help him finish coding the app he's building if he promises to keep her secret. Spending more time together shouldn't be a problem. Sure, Jamie has a new haircut, a mysterious tattoo, and a year's worth of earned muscle, but it's not like Blair is noticing. After all, they're only roommates, right?]]></description><link>https://seattle.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S246C1319233</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://seattle.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S246C1319233</guid><category><![CDATA[EAUDIOBOOK]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><dc:creator><![CDATA[Markum, Samantha]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Sat, 31 Jan 2026 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><comments>https://seattle.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/1319233246</comments><format>EAUDIOBOOK</format><subtitle></subtitle><language>eng</language><image_url>https://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9798899733123/MC.GIF&amp;client=sepup&amp;type=xw12&amp;oclc=</image_url></item><item><title><![CDATA[Love, Off the Record]]></title><description><![CDATA[Wyn and Three, vying for a reporter spot on the university newspaper, engage in a cutthroat game of sabotage, but when Wyn's pursuit of a perfect story on a dating app connects her with a mystery man, it forces Wyn and Three to confront their true feelings.]]></description><link>https://seattle.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S246C1181100</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://seattle.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S246C1181100</guid><category><![CDATA[BK]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><dc:creator><![CDATA[Markum, Samantha]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Wed, 31 Jan 2024 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><comments>https://seattle.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/1181100246</comments><format>BK</format><subtitle></subtitle><language>eng</language><image_url>https://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9781665955720/MC.GIF&amp;client=sepup&amp;type=xw12&amp;oclc=</image_url></item><item><title><![CDATA[You Wouldn't Dare]]></title><description><![CDATA["Perfect for fans of Nina Moreno, Gilmore Girls, and Sarah Dessen, You Wouldn't Dare will wrap you up in a sun-drenched, salt-scented hug and refuse to let you go." - Amanda Quain, author of Accomplished: A Georgie Darcy NovelA rom com about trying to have the summer of your life before everything changes - only to realize change might be exactly what you need...When Juniper Nash Abreheart kissed Graham Isham for the first time, she had no idea it would nearly be the end of their friendship.More specifically, she had no idea that the terrible, unforgivable thing she did to keep their summer fling a secret wouldn't just ruin their friendship, but also Graham's entire life.

The only bright spot ahead is Junie's dad's upcoming visit, just in time for her community theater production. And then poor turnout soon threatens that.But when Junie starts to realize the feelings she swore to take care of last summer have lingered, saving her production and managing her hostile relationship with Tallulah might be the least of her problems.
