Bad Boy Blues

Westbridge High still whispers about junior prom.
About the photo that made it into everyone's camera roll. About the boy who cracked under the lights... and then vanished like he never existed.

Senior year starts with a new transfer student: James Jones-built like trouble, dressed like it, and already rolling with Westbridge's two most notorious bad boys. He doesn't chase attention. He doesn't explain himself. He just dares the hallway to blink first.

Harper Lane should stay far away.
She's student council. Reputation-aware. Still trying to be "good" after a night that rewrote her name in other people's mouths.

But James isn't just a bad decision-he's a secret with a pulse.
A legal name, a clean reset, and a past Harper isn't sure she's allowed to remember.

Now Harper is trapped between what's safe and what's true...
and James is trying to prove he can be wanted without becoming the violent story the town keeps hoping he'll be.
