Hazel lived for the stage. Alex lived to outrun his past. When their dance teacher throws them together for the biggest competition of their lives, sparks fly-just not the good kind. She hates his smirk. He can't stand her glare. But when the music starts, their bodies speak the same language... And the closer they move, the harder it is to keep the line between rivals and something much more dangerous.

At Westwood Boarding School, Katie Halaway has been buried under academic pressure for as long as she can remember. Still carrying the weight of her parents' divorce-blaming herself for their separation-Katie struggles to figure out what she truly wants from life. She's missed out on the typical teenage experiences she secretly longs for, driven instead by a relentless desire to outperform her academic rival, Jamie Mathews, in nearly every test. Jamie Mathews lost his mother at a young age, leaving him alone with his father, whose growing depression has left Jamie to shoulder more than his share of responsibilities. Taking on multiple jobs just to cover basic necessities, Jamie often misses school and works himself to exhaustion. And yet, despite everything, he still manages to outshine Katie in school-his only real source of joy. To him, Katie is more than just a competitor; she's the light in his darkness and the only thing that makes the pain bearable. Can Katie and Jamie discover who they truly are beneath the pressure and pain? And in the midst of it all-can they find love?

Years after the revolution that tore the realms apart-dividing the winged from the wingless-Prince Octavius Dawson lives under the rule of the man who murdered his family. Once destined for the throne, he was spared by Tobias, the new leader, for reasons no one understands. Not even Octavius. When a prophecy surfaces, Tobias sends the winged into a brutal series of trials to find the one worthy of the crown: Survival. Obedience. Power. Octavius demands to compete, determined to reclaim what was stolen from him. Secretly, he hopes to find her-Aria Sinclair, his childhood best friend, his first love... and the girl who vanished the night his world fell apart. Aria doesn't remember much about her past, only that something inside her has always felt broken. But when she's forced into the trials, she comes face to face with a boy who feels like a memory and a warning all at once. As the trials grow deadlier and the secrets more dangerous, Octavius tries to push Aria away-forcing her to hate him before the truth can destroy her. But no matter how far he runs, he can't stop loving her. In a world ruled by bloodlines and lies, nothing is ever what it seems. Power. Betrayal. Magic. And a love that was never meant to survive. Who will claim the crown when everything else burns? Welcome to Kahari and Kirithan- where magic is outlawed, betrayal runs deep, and power comes at a deadly price
