I quickly drop my gaze, focusing on the perfectly written notes before me. The last thing I need is another complication, especially one with silver rings and a devil-may-care attitude. --- Cass Alcott has always been the girl with a plan. Between balancing her dance scholarship, Aether studies, and avoiding the pressures of her overbearing family, she doesn't have time for distractions-especially ones that come in the form of messy, infuriating boys. So, when she's paired with Elliott Thornton for a literature project, she braces herself for disaster. Elliott is everything she's not-reckless, aloof, and never on time. But as they dive into their assignment, unraveling the complexities of classic romances like Pride and Prejudice and Wuthering Heights, Elliott's rebellious nature begins to pull Cass into a world she's always avoided. From sneaking into empty theaters to stargazing from rooftops, Cass finds herself breaking all her carefully crafted rules. Beneath Elliott's mysterious, too-cool-for-everything exterior lies a deeper connection to the stories they're studying-and to Cass herself. Caught between her need for control and Elliott's chaotic charm, Cass is forced to confront her own ideas about love, identity, and the thrill of the unknown. Will their project bring them closer together, or will the emotional intensity they uncover be too much to handle? With a touch of witchy academia, heart-fluttering romance, and the magic of self-discovery, Ink & Ivory is a slow-burn that explores the fine line between order and chaos-and what happens when opposites collide.
