Jenna Leyas just got expelled from her old school. Her parents probably forget about her on a daily basis, and she's in love with her best friend, who is a straight as a ruler. Jenna is constantly staying out late, coming home drunk, and getting into fight with fellow students. So, she's living the dream life, am I right?
Jenna's parents finally have enough of her, and sent her to the strictest boarding school, Lady's Virtues, thinking that will get her in line. Let me tell you, it didn't.
Quite quickly, Jenna makes a name for herself as a player, cheater, scumbag, and a bunch of other word that I couldn't possibly put in the blurb. One smile from her and you'll do anything she says.
Until one day she meets someone who doesn't. Kavya Patel. She is the exact stereotype of an Indian girl, straight, straightforward and straight As. Cold, hates everyone, wants the world to burn. That sort.
But Jenna likes a challenge. She wants to woo Kavya over. Kavya is looking for a distraction way from her crumbling grades, friends and love relationship. What's a little harm in entertaining Jenna's banter?
But what happens when it stops being a game, for the both of them?
As Claire aims to leave her oppressive stepfamily behind, she befriends Zion. Will he be her ticket to freedom or a distraction in achieving her dreams?
