Summary
A slow-burn, modern college AU romance between Vi, an emotionally-guarded hockey player, and Caitlyn, a perfectionist newcomer with a legacy to uphold. Their anonymous relationship begins when Caitlyn finds Vi’s number inside a library book — placed there by Vi’s chaotic sister, Jinx, on a whim. Neither of them knows who the other is, even as they grow emotionally attached through late-night messages and confession-laced banter. Meanwhile, their real-life paths keep crossing — often awkwardly, unknowingly, sometimes explosively — until the inevitable moment when everything collides.

A message sent on a whim.
Two strangers-"V" and "Anon"-text beneath borrowed names, trading sarcasm, softness, and secrets they'd never say out loud.

Or that they've just been paired for a semester-long project.
Some stories begin with a name.
Theirs begins without one
