Summary
Charlie Spring, promising rower and outstanding cox, was never meant to study at Cambridge. He wasn’t meant to fall for his rival, either.
Charlie was meant for Oxford, where he began his first year. But nothing went as planned. After a brutal assault, he transfers to Cambridge for his second year, hoping to escape Oxford and the wreckage. There, he finds a new team, a new purpose, and Nick Nelson, star rower with golden-boy charm and far too much to hide.
What begins as animosity turns into something charged and inescapable. But secrets don’t stay buried forever. When the truth surfaces, Charlie and Nick must decide what’s worth risking for a future that might finally be theirs.
Over the course of three academic years, through racing seasons and emotional healing Charlie and Nick’s lives continue to intersect. Their story becomes one of rivalry, resilience, friendship and love.

Summary
It’s when Stan pushes a curl off Charlie’s forehead with a tender finger that Nick realises he’s never seen Charlie, like, canoodle with a boyfriend before. How can that be right? He’s had every chance to observe Charlie’s dating behaviour with all of his recent exes, but for some reason… he’s literally never seen Charlie kissing a man?
…☕☕☕…
Nick and Charlie are neighbors, best friends (don't tell Tao), and bros being pals. Because he's the best mate a guy could have, Nick sets Charlie up with Stan. Unfortunately, when he sees Charlie and Stan with each other, Nick feels Some Type of Way. Things devolve from there.
Featuring pining!Charlie, oblivious!Nick, exasperated friends, and relentless ribbing.

“Can I help you?”
“Gosh I hope so,” Charlie blurted before he remembered where he was and that this friendly man was not flirting, but simply doing his job. He stepped forward to the desk. “Um. I have a 4:00 appointment.”
