Boys Don't Cry by justmikame

Crestwood Academy: where legacies are born, secrets are currency, and scholarship girls like Luna Ferreira don't survive - they endure. Luna's only goal is to keep her head down, ace her classes, and prove she belongs at the elite academy where power drips from every marble pillar. But the moment she collides - literally - with Arien Andersen, everything changes. Arien is cold, untouchable, and ruthless. He rules Crestwood like a king in designer suits, with a last name that makes professors flinch and students obey. He also has a best friend - Luna's brother - which makes him strictly off-limits. Too bad no one told Arien that. She's fire. He's ice. And in a school where loyalty is bought and enemies wear diamonds, one thing is certain: If Luna wants to survive Crestwood... she'll have to stop running from the boy who watches her like a storm about to break. And if Arien wants to keep his throne? He'll have to stop wanting the girl who could burn it all down.

When seventeen-year-old Cleo Levant is sent to an all-vampire academy as part of a treaty between humans and vampires, she hopes that she can be the steward of a new era of peace. But in between classes, assassination attempts, and a dangerously handsome vampire prince, she begins to realize she might be more of a pawn than she'd thought. When she is secretly tasked by her father to find the vampire royal family's hidden heir within the academy's walls, Cleo will have to decide between family loyalty, and new friendships with the people who used to be her mortal enemies. And with a vampire-human war just waiting to break out, Cleo's decisions might just change the fate of both of her worlds forever.

Shadows of Ash and Gold by lilainahinz

Avaryn Alastors life couldn't possibly get any worse. That's what she told herself the second her feet crossed the threshold of Crestwood Academy. But boy, was she wrong. She'd never wanted to attend the most prestigious stuck-up school only made for the rich and the smart. She'd never even wanted to apply. But tragedy struck her family and it had always been her moms dream. The first day she's there she makes a fool out of herself in front of the most popular group in all of Crestwood. And to make matters worse one of them is her roommate! They call themselves the Devara. (Stupid, she knows). And yet she can't help but feel drawn to them. Drawn to everything about them. So Avaryn does what she does best, she investigates. Only what she finds is a whole other dangerous world. A world of secrets and pain and even magic. The Devara is supernatural. They come from a whole other world. Not only that but they are heirs to this world. They are royalty. And with royalty comes enemies ... And now these enemies want Avaryn. And the only way she'll survive is sticking with the Devara. That is ... If she doesn't kill them first. Mystery, romance, death, lies. A plot twist you won't see coming. Shadows of Ash and Gold.

Beneath the Crest: Echoes by bychiaraye

This is the second book in the Crestmoor series. To fully understand Elara and Rowan's story, please read Book One - "Beneath the Crest" - first. A love like theirs doesn't vanish. It echoes. Elara Vale left Crestmoor with her heart still burning for the boy who never quite let her in-and never fully let her go. But the walls of Crestmoor don't forget, and neither does Rowan Blackwell. Now, a new semester begins. New secrets. New faces. And a love that refuses to stay buried. But some scars run deeper than silence. And some truths were never meant to be uncovered. When Elara returns to Crestmoor, nothing feels the same. Not the air. Not the halls. Not the boy watching her like she still belongs to him. Because love doesn't die at the end of a chapter. It echoes.

A secret list circulates in hushed tones the names of those marked to disappear.
