In the exclusive and perfectly manicured suburb of Bedford, in Nassau County, there's only one rule: money buys everything... even people.
At the elitist Hollow Hill Prep, where the daughters of powerful businessmen, retired celebrities, and Manhattan socialites rule without opposition, four girls dominate the halls as if they were a runway:
Savannah Van Doren, the undisputed queen of drama and manipulation.
Chloe Astor, an expert at destroying reputations with an angelic smile.
Bianca Lexington, the sarcastic fashionista who can crush you with a single glance.
Delilah Pierce, sweet on the outside, poisonous on the inside, daughter of a corrupt politician.
Together, they form "The Court," a group as feared as it is admired. But this year, something-or someone-is different.
Amelia Torres, a scholarship student of Latin origin and working-class background, has just been accepted for her academic achievements. Naive, kind-hearted, and inexperienced in the social games of the elite, Amelia is the perfect target for a new power experiment.
Can they turn her into one of them? Or will they realize that playing with someone real doesn't always go according to plan?
Because the closer they get, the more dangerous it becomes to underestimate her. What begins as a game of control... may end in a silent war, unexpected betrayals, and secrets that could bring down their entire perfect world.
Millie Ripley has only ever known one player next door. Luke Dawson. But with only a couple months left before he graduates and a blackmailer on the loose, will their love story stand the test of time? And will they both need to grow up to face the truth?
