The Archive of Aphelion

At the prestigious Aphelion academy, the elite are trained to rule, but Elara Vance is just trying to survive her senior year. Elara is a scholarship ghost, a student with a rare gift for internal reading. The ability to sense the intent behind written words. When she's assigned to an internship in the school's restricted basement library, known as The Archive, she discovers the tagline's warning is true:

Knowledge is power, but it is also a trap.

While most students are obsessed with the upcoming Celestial Ball, Elara finds a hidden diary that reveals the school isn't just an institution, it's a living machine. Caught in the gears of this secret are Caleb, the brooding son of the Headmaster who hates the legacy he's meant to inherit, and Julian, a brilliant, charming rebel who believes the Archive is stealing the students futures.

As Elara navigates a dangerous love triangle and the social hierarchy of high school, she realizes that reading between the lines of her own heart is just as dangerous as decoding the Archive's ancient secrets.
