Mira Daniels and Kai Castellanos have everything-wealth, beauty, and brains. At Blackthorne Academy, they're the ultimate academic rivals, locked in a cold war of test scores, snide comments, and stolen valedictorian titles.
But behind the luxury and legacy lies a web of power far more dangerous.
When their powerful families announce an arranged engagement to merge their empires, Mira is furious. The last person she wants to marry is the smug, infuriating boy who's made it his mission to outshine her. What she doesn't know is that Kai is hiding a deadly secret-he's the heir to a powerful mafia dynasty, and his closest allies, Milo, Sira, and Jay, are trained for war, not exams.
As school pressure rises and dark family alliances close in, Mira finds herself caught in a storm of secrets, betrayal, and a dangerous attraction she never asked for. Because the only thing worse than hating Kai...
...is falling for the one man who was never supposed to be safe.
