My aunt says I don’t belong at Blackthorn University. That girls like me don’t earn scholarships without giving something in return. I told myself I’d prove her wrong, that I'd keep my head down, follow the rules, and survive. But at a school like this, rumours spread faster than truth and now I’m one accusation away from losing everything. So when Adrian Laurent offers me a way out, I say yes. Even though everyone at Blackthorn knows one thing about him: Nothing he does is ever harmless.
