Where it all began

At eighteen, Liliane Rosier, a young orphan, thought she could finally breathe.

The year promised to be simple: a new school, a student routine, familiar faces found after too long. Nothing that can really turn his life upside down.

However, as soon as she set foot at the Ambroise Academy, the most select, luxurious and feared establishment in Europe, reserved for the heirs of the greatest fortunes, she understood that this year would not be like the others.

In these corridors covered with gold and secrets, every corner actually hides a heavy secret.

She will find old friends there... but also shadows that she thought were left behind.

And then there was Mattheo DeLuca.

The Italian heir as dangerous as he is fascinating, the one she would have preferred never to meet. The one who, in a glance, exploded the quiet facade that she was trying to maintain.

An enemy.

A first love.

A chaos that she was not ready to live.

Between betrayals, burning attraction and secrets too heavy to be carried, a story of enemies to lovers to enemies again...

But one question remains:

Will their love be able to survive everything that the Academy hides within its walls?

Or will the secrets that surround them eventually destroy them?
