💙 Maynard High: Awkward Blue 💙 "He's running from legacy. She's fighting to be believed. Both are closer to the truth than they should be." Kael Lance was born into power, expectation, and control. When he finally pushes back, he's sent to Maynard High, a remote boarding school where discipline is strict, rules are absolute... and students don't always make it out.

But when she gets her hands on something she was never meant to see, she learns the truth: At Maynard, people don't just hide the truth, they disappear. And the ones who ask too many questions are next.
