The Pretty Games: in a esteemed boarding school hissing with rumors and dripping with envy, whose crown will slip first?
Aurora "Rory" Valentine is incredibly gorgeous and has been lovely since she was born. Rory knows she resembles a royal and her throne is made entirely out of ice.
Headstrong and catty, Rory knows exactly who she is: a ruler who somehow knows everyone secrets. When her prestigious father enrolls her to an academy in the mountains, she stops at nothing to claw her way to the top of the hierarchy. However, when a change in the system suddenly allows the boys of the male branch to board at theirs, everything changes. The one thing Rory has never taken seriously faces her square in the face - boys.
But these aren't ordinary boys. Carved and sculpted from gold and diamonds, Rory believes she's finally met her equals who, to everyone's surprise, are just as naughty as her.
And when pretty girls and pretty boys mix, things get ugly.

She witnessed horror... and became one. After surviving a harrowing near-rape and watching her best friend brutally assaulted and murdered before her eyes, Aurora vanished-emotionally. What rose from the ashes was someone unrecognizable: Cold. Fearless. Savage. Untouchable. She trusts no one. Loves no one. And as far as she's concerned, no man alive could ever break through her fortress of ice. Love? Dead. Her rules? Simple. No emotions. No attachments. No second chances. But her new college? A battlefield. And him? Leonard Grande - the kind of trouble she didn't prepare for. Wounded. Rebellious. Addictive. Dangerous. A walking paradox with a face carved by gods and a soul damaged by demons. A notorious playboy who takes pleasure in breaking girls, shredding hearts like paper-because he believes every girl is a liar in disguise. Until Aurora. She doesn't look at him like he matters. She doesn't fall. She doesn't even flinch. And that pisses him off. Now it's war. A toxic game of destruction and seduction. She wants to erase him. He wants to ruin her. But when secrets from the past start surfacing, both realize they've been walking in the dark... and maybe-just maybe-they were destined to collide. How deep do their scars go? And who's really pulling the strings in this web of pain and passion. Dive into a dark college romance where love is a weapon, trust is deadly, and only the strongest survive. When bad meets baddest... there are no rules. Trigger Warning: This story contains themes of sexual violence, emotional trauma, murder, psychological manipulation, and abusive behavior.
