⋆·˚ ༘ FINLEY MILLER was born cursed. The stars she spent years beneath, never aligning correctly. She was okay living isolated from the whispered words of hatred and the glares of disgust, homeschooled and hidden from the world. But new opportunities arise, and a scholarship is handed to her. One that comes with pristine uniforms and gossip that spreads like a wildfire. All she has to do is keep her head down and her identity hidden. But of course, as fate would have it, she collides with the one boy she should be avoiding like the plague. He's born to hate her or so she thought. But things are never that simple. Not when the fire inside her is destined to destroy him. And fire always burns brighter when someone's fuelling it. WYATT KENNEDY has always been focused on one thing: football. He's never had time to worry about anything other than his dreams. He feels like the weight of the world is on his shoulders, waiting to knock him down at any minute. Because nepotism only gets you so far, especially with thousands of people waiting for you to fuck up. With his anxiety building up, he feels himself slipping. And the only time his feet feel as if they are flat on the ground is in the presence of the one girl he can't love. Yet he can't stop seeking her out, looking for her in every crowd. He's always loved a challenge, and she might be the hardest one he's ever dealt with. freywritess 2026

⋆·˚ ༘ MILLIE LEWIS has always been too forgiving. Letting people walk all over her for the sake of their feelings. It was no exception when it came to the only boy she'd ever loved: Justin Holland. And while she had more patience and forgiveness than most of the world combined, even she had a breaking point. With the string tying them together now cut, Millie is a free woman. But being free isn't all she imagined, especially when Justin seems to invade every aspect of her life. She wants to put up walls, remain strong and move on. Yet her heart keeps tugging her in the opposite direction. JUSTIN HOLLAND knows he's a mess. Not smart enough, not nice enough, not good enough. Especially not for a girl like Millie Lewis. Yet somehow he won her over, charming her enough to make her fall in love. Only for him to ruin it. But Justin isn't one to run from a challenge. He's determined to win back the heart of Millie Lewis and prove to her he's worth it. However, it proves to be a lot harder than he ever intended. And maybe second chances aren't made for everyone. Maybe once the flame burned out, there was no hope in reigniting it. freywritess 2026

⋆·˚ ༘ EMORY WILSON has always wanted to defy the odds. She refuses to become what people want: a carbon copy of her mother. Armed with the voice of an angel and dreams so big they seem out of reach, she's determined to make a name for herself. No nepotism, no help, just her and a guitar. She's fire in a world of lumber, destined to burn the world and leave an impact on everyone she meets. Her beliefs are strong, unwavering, even when it comes to people. Especially Levi Brady, the type of guy she rolls her eyes at. They've always clashed, she's fire and he's ice. Two opposites. But opposites always attract. LEVI BRADY is a perfectionist. The golden boy of Finnerty Prep and the spitting image of his father. Focused on his studies, he doesn't have time to worry about the people around him. Not when he needs that stamp of validation from school like he needs air. He's always been adored by everyone. Guys, girls, the whole lot. With the exception of one fiery girl: Emory Wilson. He can't understand why she doesn't like him or even tolerate him. Someone not liking him eats him alive, even if he does a damn good job of disguising it. But masks only conceal the truth for so long. And it's only a matter of time before the mask slips and feelings get tangled. freywritess 2026

⋆·˚ ༘ LUCILLE KENNEDY has always been seen for what's on the surface. With beauty girls only dream of, people tend to think she's got it all. A perfect face, a perfect family, a good looking boyfriend. She couldn't possibly have anything to feel upset about. However beauty brings pain. Not in an obvious way, but one that's hidden beyond the surface that people never bother to dive beneath. Until Brayden Hayes, a boy she's known forever, breaks through the surface. It's a rush of feelings she's always dreamed of but her heart is tied to someone else. Maybe cutting those ties is exactly what she needs. And maybe her fairytale is waiting for her. BRAYDEN HAYES has never looked for love. Sure, he admires it, watching it through the lens of his camera. Yet he's never felt that rush, he's never fallen so deeply for someone that his head spins. Or at least he hadn't until Lucille Kennedy needs his help. He's always admired her, along with the rest of the world. The only difference is he truly sees her. Down to her core, and the darkest parts she conceals from the world. There's only one problem: she has a boyfriend. So when feelings get tangled and he's caught in the web, he can't help but spin it in his favour. Even if the outcome is messier than he can handle. freywritess 2026
