On the brink of turning eighteen, heiress Isabella Leclerc seems to have everything-beauty, wealth, and status-but secretly longs for freedom from her gilded cage. Then she meets Adrian Beaumont, a 22-year-old heir from an old money family who lives in the shadows of society, preferring books to ballrooms. Their reluctant partnership soon sparks a forbidden slow-burn romance, where every glance carries the weight of reputation, family expectation, and the risk of scandal.

22 parts Complete
A poor girl in a rich world. A forbidden love worth risking everything. ------- I was nobody. Just a diner waitress struggling to raise my little brother. Until a man in a black suit walked in and told me the truth: I'm the daughter of one of the richest men in the city. Now I live in a mansion I don't belong in, surrounded by whispers, enemies, and secrets. My new classmates call me a fraud. My father barely looks at me. And then there's him. Adrian Vale. My brother's best friend. The arrogant heir who can ruin me with a single word. He swears he hates me-yet he's always there when I fall. But the deeper I dig into my mother's death, the more dangerous this world becomes. And the closer I get to Adrian, the harder it is to stay away. Because if loving him is forbidden... then why does it feel like my only chance at surviving? -------- Seventeen-year-old Lena Cruz has spent her life in the shadows-working nights at a diner, caring for her younger brother, and keeping a low profile in their small town. But when a mysterious black car shows up outside her school, she learns the truth: She is the illegitimate daughter of one of the wealthiest families in the city. To protect her, she's swept away into a new life of penthouses, private schools, and luxury she never asked for. But being the new girl at her elite prep school paints a giant target on her back. And then there's Adrian Vale-the infuriatingly gorgeous heir to the empire who hates her guts. He's her half-brother's best friend... and sworn to protect her.
