They say every high school has its secrets. At Westbridge High, the hallways don't just echo with footsteps they carry whispers that can destroy reputations in seconds.
When Amara walks in on her first day, she thinks blending in will be easy. But then she stumbles into the path of Jace Carter the school's golden boy with the perfect smile and a secret he'll do anything to keep hidden.
Suddenly, Amara is no longer invisible. She's the girl everyone is watching... and not all of them have good intentions.
Friendships turn into rivalries. Crushes turn into heartbreak. And every locker she passes seems to hold another lie waiting to explode.
But the biggest secret of all? The one Amara swore she'd never tell might just be the one that changes everything.
💔 In these hallways, trust no one. Fall for no one. And never let your secret slip.
He's the guy everyone warns you about-
with fists full of trouble, ink on his skin, and a stare that dares you to look away.
She's the girl no one notices-
quiet, sharp, always two steps ahead and one word from setting everything on fire.
When Ivy Lane calls out Carter Hayes in front of the entire class, it should've ended with silence.
Instead, it ends with detention. Together.
One empty classroom.
Two stubborn hearts.
And a thousand seconds where the tension cuts deeper than any insult.
He calls her princess.
She calls him predictable.
But the longer they're stuck in the same room, the more obvious it becomes-
Hate might be the safest thing they feel.
