"What does it feel like to be a heartless bitch?" "Cold." . . . Everyone loves Katherine Hartley - or at least, they love the illusion. Katherine reigns both on campus and at the elite ballet academy founded and owned by her father. She's every warning wrapped in silk. Elegance carved in ice, she's a girl raised to be disciplined, untouchable and most of all; perfect - a swan sculpted by years of brutal training and emotional isolation. Love was never meant for her. Especially not the kind that lingers - obsessive, aching... wrong. Especially not from the boy she's known since childhood. He's the one who sees through her mask, sees everything she tries to hide. And for the first time, Katherine starts to wonder what it would be like to fall - even if it ruins everything. He knows loving her may ruin him. But letting her go would destroy him. He's everything she can't want. And the only thing that makes her feel alive. She's the only thing he wants, but can't have.

Ivy Morris looks perfect from the outside. A straight-A student. A dedicated ballet and competition dancer. Quiet, composed, untouchable. But perfection is just a performance. After her mother's death, Ivy's home becomes something she survives instead of returns to. With a controlling, abusive and alcoholic father she hides behind practiced smiles, Ivy learns how to stay silent. The only person who truly sees her is her older brother, Lucas. Then there's Bennett. Soccer player. Sharp tongue. Constant irritation. They're enemies by circumstance, by misunderstanding - until they aren't. At sixteen, both carrying more than they let on, Ivy and Bennett are forced closer than either of them wants. And somewhere between late nights, broken walls, and quiet confessions, enemies begin to soften. Because sometimes the people who seem the strongest are the most fragile - and sometimes love starts where you least expect it.

Soleil Dubois was the sweetest person you could ever meet. Her name meant 'sun' in French and that was exactly what she was. Sunshine. But don't let that sweet personality fool you because she was sarcastic and had the mouth of a sailor. Cursed like one too. She was still grieving from the loss of her mother, along with her older brother, Lucas who wasn't doing too well either, but they had decided that some things were meant to let go of, and their mother's death was one of those things. And in order for that to happen, they decided to sign up for an exchange program that would be happening in their rival school; NorthFields Academy. The school that most of their competitions were held against, but the biggest one was Football. Every semester, NorthFields Academy and SouthFields Academy played against eachother, and the one who got the most goals by the end of the year would win trophies, more fame and money. That's when Elias Morano came in. He was the captain of the football team of NorthFields Academy and despised Lucas with all his heart. Their feelings were mutual for eachother, but for some reason, his eyes were always on Soleil, the one girl that hated him as well. The one girl he couldn't have. Why her out of everyone? And feelings build up when Soleil goes to NorthFields Academy for a month and a half to complete the exchange program. What's worse is that those football games would be more often and both schools would be playing against eachother. The worst thing is that Elias and Soleil are assigned together for the program, meaning they have to spend more time together. Soleil soon realises that what she feels for Elias isn't hate, its something more than that. But she can't do anything, can she? He is her brother's rival after all.

Then she meets Alexandra "Alex" Lane. Alex is everything Evelyn swears off: sarcastic, always in trouble, skipping school, and doesn't do assignments. But appearances can lie. And just because someone grows up seeing the worst things about themselves doesn't mean it's the truth. Before they have to work together, Evelyn finds Alex insufferable. Alex finds Evelyn stuck up, but with every interaction the two start to see all the things nobody else sees in each other. And suddenly, neither of them are as ice cold as they seem.
