Cynane Law worked her ass off to win the only scholarship to Rudderford, the magical prep academy for the filthy rich. It might've helped that she's an Allòs, a wielder of a type of magic so rare that most people go their whole lives without seeing one.
But once at Rudderford, Cynane learns it's not all about good grades and floating feathers. Life on campus is filled with competition, sex, deceit and feuds between bloodlines going back thousands of years. Everyone wants a piece of the new girl, whether it's the cocky brunette boy who smells of cigarette smoke, the only other Allòs in the academy - charming but very, very deadly - or the sexy but mysterious history teacher with those piercing, green eyes.
Somehow, Cynane's at the centre of it all, and it's beginning to look like someone isn't very happy about that. Will she make it to the end of the school year? Or will she prove, once and for all, that scholarship kids don't belong...
When Chef Margot loses her beloved restaurant to her cheating ex-fiance, her best friend, single dad Nathan, steps in with an unexpected offer to help her start over. As they collaborate, sparks fly-but can they overcome their complicated pasts for a chance at real love?
