At second glance, everything is not as simple as it seems. Not when you attend Thornwell Academy for the Gifted where your peers are sons and daughters of senators and business magnates, celebrated journalists and academics. Of course, there's the ordinary duckling somewhere in the mix. Eleanore is the ordinary new girl with her unordinary secrets safely hidden away.
Well, until Adrian Hamilton, of the Hamilton banking family, stumbles on those secrets in his search for the reasons behind his family's declining fortunes. When a young handsome intelligent boy – and his young handsome intelligent friends – ask her for help, what is one ordinary girl to do? Trust him with those secrets? Dig to the bottom of the truth? It would be easier to run away.
But Thornwell had taught her better than that, hadn’t it?
Throw in a long-lost ex-best friend, a hunt for a family heirloom, all the inconveniences of being young and highly emotional and you get…
Nah, it’s comparatively tame by Thornwell standards .

The Rule Of Elites
She was a girl ensnared by secrets and scars. He was a boy forged from power and frost. When an enigma collides with an Elite, they must either heal or descend into their own hell to survive. --- Seventeen-year-old Elaine Winters has one goal: to endure the torment of her bullies and ignore the new student who seems utterly out of place in their small town and public school. Alexander White is a boy she needs to stay away from-stunningly handsome, immensely rich, and dangerously cold. He is privileged beyond any normal measure. Catching his attention was a chance mistake. His relentless pursuit of her friendship, an anomaly. And when it turns into something deeper, it becomes the ultimate disaster in the making. But when buried secrets emerge from their caskets, Winter finds herself pulled into his world of city lights, power, mind games, and the elite atmosphere of boarding school. Soon, everything she thought she knew about the boy from her town is turned upside down. He becomes everything her heart dreads-and a danger her mind warns her of. She is his obsession, and he is her curse. Every belief is tested, but none of them is bound to win against the rule of Elites. A world where truth is what they make it. ◾ REVIEWS It is one of the best book I've ever read.
