Downloading The Roommate Terms (Signed & Bound, Book 1)

A slow-burn sapphic romance where control isn’t just shared—it’s surrendered.

Bri Russo is finally settling into campus life: she’s in the nursing program, living on her own, and attending school with her two best friends—far from her complicated past.

The only catch? Her intimidating law student roommate.

Adrienne Kelly has a reputation—argumentative, blunt, and disruptive. But as days turn into late nights and silences grow more charged, Bri begins to wonder if Adrienne’s interest in her goes beyond being just roommates.

As if that weren’t enough, her friend group is starting to shift. Hunter, the guy who’s always waited a little too patiently, still hopes she might change her mind. And Maddie, her closest friend, carries a quiet jealousy—and a resentment that’s harder to ignore.

Caught between a sweet new crush and a roommate who seems to see right through her, Bri begins to uncover something deeper: a desire to surrender. To be claimed. To let go—if only she could trust someone enough to give them control.

The Roommate Terms is a tender, kink-coded prelude to a D/s relationship in the making. It explores emotional power exchange, shifting friendships, and the slow, simmering edge of desire between two women who aren’t ready to admit how badly they need each other.

Intended for mature readers only.

Themes include: emotional power exchange, erotic tension, grief, jealousy, and complex romantic dynamics.
