Roeville Academy of the Creative Arts is one of the most prestigious boarding schools in the country. It's different from most schools, because it values art over numbers, creativity over grades, and heart over mind. It's costly and wonderful, and Paige Brinley, an aspiring ballerina, could only ever dream about attending it.
That is, until she's offered a full scholarship.
But she wasn't expecting the students at Roeville to be devious master planners--desperate to get to the top--, for people to make enemies out of her, and for Cameron Bensen, the school's best film student and a total heartthrob, to take an unusual liking for her.
And what's even more astonishing than all that is the fact that Paige just might discover who she truly is by spending one year at Roeville. It could either make her or break her.

Bound To Burn - The Highschool Diaries
Amy West was that girl. New to the school ,Sharp-witted. A quiet storm with kind eyes and answers always ready before the teacher finished asking. She walked the halls like she was made of both porcelain and iron. A little mysterious. A little untouchable. And then there was Alessio De Luca. The boy rejoining this year, smooth hair, that careless grin like he knew exactly what he was doing - even if he didn't. He wasn't the top student, but he made top hearts race. He had that energy. The kind that made some teachers frustrated, boys jealous, and girls curious , the one who got all respect . He didn't ask for attention - he attracted it. They were opposites. Fire and rain. Brains and instinct. Logic and chaos. But you know how it goes - Sometimes the brightest light draws the darkest shadow. And sometimes the heart wants what the mind can't understand. It was the first day of the school year. Notebooks crisp. Uniforms stiff. Air filled with the scent of ambition and adolescent anxiety. Amy West walked into St. Gabriel's High for the first time. New city. New school. New everything. She wasn't shy - just... observant. Cautious. The kind of girl who spoke only when she meant it. The kind who listened twice before trusting once. She was ready for a quiet year. Grades, books, and maybe a few new friends. "Alessio De Luca is rejoining this year." Dropped out last year. No one really knew why. Fights? Family stuff? A bad crowd? A broken heart? Whispers followed him before his shoes even stepped onto campus. When he walked in on the first day - heads turned. Sunglasses still on. Hair pushed back. That smirk that said "I know you're talking about me." One glance. That was all.
Blue Flames & Clear Heels
Dallas Wings rookie Paige Bueckers never expected her first year in the league to be anything more than basketball, pressure, and proving herself on the court. But everything changes the night she walks into a dimly lit club on the outskirts of Dallas and locks eyes with Alessia Moretti-a stunning, fiercely independent 19-year-old dancer with a guarded heart, a Brazilian-Italian fire, and a past she keeps locked away beneath glitter and spotlights. What starts as fascination quickly turns into something deeper-something dangerous. For Paige, Alessia is everything she didn't see coming: bold, raw, complicated. And for Alessia, Paige is a risk-pure-hearted, rising fast, and too good to get tangled in her world. But love doesn't wait for the perfect moment. Under the flashing lights of the club and the bright lights of the arena, they'll have to navigate secrets, judgment, and the kind of passion that burns fast-and doesn't always play fair. Because falling in love was never part of the plan. But now... it's the only thing that matters. ⸻Complete
a sun that never sets
After one year at Bridewater College, Honoria Song likes to consider herself a veteran. She still has the same goals, but she's grown up a lot in the past year. Through thick and thin, though, she's made it, and this year was only going to be worse. The year for relaxation is over. In a matter of months she'd have her JCMs, and she'd be a liar if she said she wasn't terrified. But either way, she knew what she had to do. She couldn't stress herself out like she did last year. She couldn't fuck up again, or she'd be out of chances. Which is why she agreed to a tutoring deal with her (maybe) worst enemy Theodore Yu, despite his best friend Sebastian Hong still holding a grudge against her. But that's not the only thing going on.
