At St. Augustine Academy, wealth isn't just power-it's protection. A place where secrets hide behind designer clothes, whispered rumors can ruin reputations, and love is just another calculated move.
🔥 Luciana Perez learned early on that blending in is the best way to survive. She keeps her head down, plays by the rules, and hides the fact that she's just as rich as the people she pretends to despise.
🔥 Marco Torres is St. Augustine's golden boy-the one with the looks, the charm, and the last name that guarantees his future. But perfection is a lie, and behind closed doors, his world is crumbling under the weight of his family's expectations.
They were never meant to cross paths.
They were never supposed to get involved.
But when a single lie ties them together, their lives start to unravel.
Secrets will be exposed. Reputations will be ruined. And in a world where power means everything, falling for the wrong person could cost them more than just their hearts.
After all, at St. Augustine... it's not about who's telling the truth-it's about who can lie the best.

The Diva and Her Moonlight Queen [LSFanfic]
Broadway legend Lea Salonga has built her life on discipline, brilliance, and the comfort of knowing exactly who she is and where she belongs. Rafael De Torre has lived his life between worlds- a trans man navigating CEO power by day, and a fearless drag queen by night. He is equal parts elegance and chaos, restraint and rebellion, a man who has learned to master masks as carefully as Lea masters her stages. When Lea unknowingly hires Rafael as her "very gay" personal assistant, their worlds-glamour and grit, precision and reinvention, spotlight and shadow- collide in ways neither of them anticipates. What begins as professionalism unravels into something charged, tender, and impossible to ignore: a connection built on trust, vulnerability, and the quiet hope that someone, finally, sees them fully. An original concept fanfiction from the Spectacular x Hey, Gorgeous universe.Complete
