Heir to nothing
After one devastating mistake, Anastasia Miller is expelled from her old school - a decision that still haunts her. Now forced to start over at the elite, twisted Ravenscroft Academy, she's determined to keep her head down, stay out of trouble, and avoid any distractions - especially the romantic kind. Celibate, silent, and set on survival. That was the plan. Strong-willed, sharp-tongued, and dead set on staying under the radar, Anastasia has no interest in making friends - or enemies. That all crashes when her path crosses with Noah Kingsley - the school's too-good-looking-for-his-own-good soccer captain. Cold, rude, and arrogant, he checks off every trait on her stay-the-hell-away list. So when he accidentally hits her in the head with a soccer ball, Anastasia doesn't just let it slide - she shoves a dead rat into his locker and calls it fair game. Because if he wants to act like an asshole, she's not afraid to match the energy. What starts as petty revenge turns into tension, banter, and something neither of them is ready for. But in a school where appearances are everything and everyone is hiding something, Anastasia's past is a ticking time bomb - and it's only a matter of time before it all explodes. Because at Ravenscroft, the pretty ones are damaged, the rich ones are ruthless, and even the deepest secrets don't stay buried forever.Complete
