Tina Ugo is having one terrific year!

Her grandmother has just died, and now she has no choice but to reconnect and spend her senior year in the outskirts of Antacel, with a father she barely knows.

On the upside, she's just gotten the highly coveted merit scholarship to Hurtwood Academy; The Private school for only the most elite students.

The only life Tina has ever known is that of poverty and lack; a social outcast for most of her life, she's never found where she truly fits in.
But suddenly, she's being exposed to the lavish lifestyle of the rich and wealthy.

Gillian Burton, the It girl of Hurtwood, has also just invited her to Brunch_ an exclusive invitation which Tina hopes will catapult her up the social ladder.

Now, She's determined to create a new identity for herself and finally fit in with the elites, no matter the cost.

But doing that won't be easy.

She'll have to deal with a secret love triangle, an heiress bent on vengeance, a clueless father, and several lies that threaten to collapse on top of her.

In the midst of the chaos that quickly becomes her life, she finds a chance for love with the last person she'd thought possible.

Now, she has to make a choice.
Keep her crown which she's fought so hard for, or take a chance on true love and lose everything.

It's a game of chess.... And there can only be one queen standing!
