When Jude Duarte and her twin sister transfer to Blackwood Academy - an elite private school for the children of the rich, powerful, and morally questionable - she expects drama, not danger. But one smirk from Cardan Greenbriar changes everything.
Cardan is arrogant, magnetic, and untouchable. The golden boy of Blackwood - heir to a criminal empire disguised as wealth and privilege. Jude should hate him. She does hate him. Until hate starts to feel a little too much like attraction.
But Blackwood isn't just a school; it's a battleground. Beneath its polished marble halls and fencing blades lie family secrets, blood ties, and quiet wars fought between CEOs and mob bosses. And Jude's father, who claims to be "military," might just be one of the worst of them.
When a brutal betrayal exposes Jude to the darkness her father tried to hide - and a rival family sets its sights on her as the perfect pawn - she and Cardan are forced to choose: destroy each other, or burn the world down together.
Loyalties will snap. Lines will blur.
And in a place where love is as dangerous as violence -
the only rule is don't get caught bleeding.
All rights of the characters go to Holly Black - the author of The Cruel Prince series.
