"Perhaps it would have been kinder never to know love at all than to know it just long enough to lose it." Ophelia Blackthorne has spent years learning how to keep herself hidden. A Slytherin from a family whose name carries more secrets than affection, she knows better than most that trust is rarely given without a price. Draco Malfoy, unfortunately, has been given two very good reasons to see her. The first is an order from his father. The second - a wager. Not quite in that order. All he has to do is earn Ophelia's trust before January. Get close enough to learn what the Blackthornes are hiding, report what he finds, collect his winnings, and walk away. Ophelia, however, is not nearly as oblivious as he would like. So when Draco begins constructing something that resembles trust, she decides to construct one of her own. He thinks she is beginning to believe him. She thinks he is beginning to reveal himself. Neither considers what might happen if two people pretending to trust one another accidentally stop pretending. After all, a lie is perfectly harmless so long as everyone remembers which part was invented. Isn't it?

Olivia Holland has always been the quiet one. A kind, soft-spoken half-blood Ravenclaw, she has spent most of her years at Hogwarts being overlooked, underestimated, and bullied for simply being herself. She never expected someone like Draco Malfoy to notice her. Draco Malfoy has everything-status, intelligence, wealth, and a family name that commands respect. But behind closed doors, his life is far from perfect. his father has made one thing very clear: a Malfoy does not fall in love with someone who isn't pure-blood. Then Draco and Olivia are paired together for an assignment. What begins as an inconvenient partnership slowly becomes something neither of them can ignore. As Draco learns about Olivia, he learns about the kindness she carries despite everything she's endured, the walls he's built around himself begin to crumble. And as Olivia gets closer to Draco, she discovers that beneath the arrogance and the Malfoy name is a boy who has spent his entire life trying to become someone his father will be proud of. But loving Olivia means going against everything Draco has ever been taught. And loving Draco means stepping into a world that has never wanted someone like her. With Lucius Malfoy determined to keep them apart, and the expectations of the wizarding world closing in around them, Draco and Olivia will have to decide just how much they're willing to risk for each other.
