Crestwood Academy: where legacies are born, secrets are currency, and scholarship girls like Luna Ferreira don't survive - they endure. Luna's only goal is to keep her head down, ace her classes, and prove she belongs at the elite academy where power drips from every marble pillar. But the moment she collides - literally - with Arien Andersen, everything changes. Arien is cold, untouchable, and ruthless. He rules Crestwood like a king in designer suits, with a last name that makes professors flinch and students obey. He also has a best friend - Luna's brother - which makes him strictly off-limits. Too bad no one told Arien that. She's fire. He's ice. And in a school where loyalty is bought and enemies wear diamonds, one thing is certain: If Luna wants to survive Crestwood... she'll have to stop running from the boy who watches her like a storm about to break. And if Arien wants to keep his throne? He'll have to stop wanting the girl who could burn it all down.

"I'm going to catch you up to speed here Eros. We're going to fuck, if that's alright with you." Six hundred years ago, Eros, God of the angels, died a brutal death. Murdered in his own throne room. Scythe to the heart. Twisted. Six hundred years later, the winged man woke up, a shell of the man he used to be. "That's perfectly fine with me." For some god forsaken reason, nobody could see him. Or hear him. It was as though he wasn't there. As if he were still dead. But she could see him. And touch him. And taste him.
