FORGE THE FUTURE
Three years ago, the "Full House"-an unbreakable circle of five childhood best friends-shattered into pieces. For Gabriella Vance, the heartbreak was deeply personal. Garvey Thorne, the boy she trusted with her entire heart, walked away from her porch without a single explanation, leaving behind a reputation as a liar and ruining their perfect group foundation.
Now it's senior year at Oakridge High, and a brutal Advanced Trigonometry project forces the fractured group into a lethalalliance. Assigned to the exact same quadrant, Gabriella and Garvey must work together to build a structural house blueprint from scratch or risk failing their futures.
In the crowded school hallways, they fake a truce to keep the rumor accounts and ruthless rivals at bay. But behind closed doors, the friction is radioactive. Every sharp glance and accidental touch proves that the ashes of their past are still burning white-hot.
As local drama escalates and corporate sharks threaten to steal their architectural data, a massive secret drops into their lives. The architecture of their hatred wasn't built on a betrayal-it was built on a devastating sacrifice Garvey made to protect her. Can Gabriella and Garvey rebuild the foundation of their love, or will the weight of the past cause their entire world to collapse?
