Eighteen-year-old Kehlani Adeyemi never expected to win a scholarship to St Augustine's College, one of London's most elite private schools. Here, uniforms are crisp, families are rich, and she sticks out like a sore thumb.
She plans to keep her head down. Blend in. Survive.
But when her path crosses with Nate Devereaux, those plans turn to shit.
Bad-tempered and impossible to read, Nate is determined to pretend she doesn't exist... until he doesn't.
While new friendships form in the glittering world of St Augustine's, Kehlani's real life grows heavier: grief she refuses to touch, siblings who depend on her, and secrets she has sworn never to speak aloud.
She can navigate St Augustine's. She can survive home. But she can't let the two collide.
Yet the closer she and Nate become, the harder it is to keep her two worlds apart. How long can she maintain this game of pretend before the truth is revealed?
