College Was Never About The Degree

College isn't about the degree-it's about survival.

Zariah Monet Evans thought she had her life under control. Sophomore year at Royalton University was supposed to be about staying cute, stacking credits, and minding her business. But when you roll with a group of bold, loud, too-pretty-to-be-humble girls, drama isn't optional-it's a lifestyle.

Her roommates, her day-ones, her "sisters"?
They're funny. They're wild. And they're backstabbing liars.

Between secret relationships, shady hookups, and group chat leaks that blow up everything, Zariah's inner circle starts falling apart one betrayal at a time. What's worse? The one guy she's not supposed to trust-Julián "Jules" Knight, her ex-best friend's sneaky, fine situationship-is the only one who seems to have her back... or is playing her the hardest.

There's love. There's betrayal. There's screenshots.
And in this dorm, loyalty is temporary-but shade is forever.
