Eden King is the infamous, elusive student at their prestigious boarding school, and Nora Wright, who has secrets of her own, might be the only one who can help him...if she doesn't drown first. *** Nora Wright is perfectly happy staying under the radar at the prestigious Prempton Academy, but when the school's reputation is threatened, she's thrust into the spotlight as Head Girl, winding her toe to toe with the infamous Eden King, who seems to hate everyone, including her...or so she thinks. As she navigates her new role, she discovers things are not always as they seem. Behind the hallowed halls of Prempton lies a web of façade and deception, and behind the boy she'd thought to hate is someone who just might need saving.
