Ella is falling apart.
Final year of college, a life that looks perfect from the outside but feels completely wrong on the inside. Desperate for escape, she hides away at her grandmother's house, hoping for a quiet break from everything she can't fix.
But peace doesn't last.
Her best friend Cara-an introverted writer secretly successful online-gets an opportunity to join a paid writers' group. The only problem? Cara can't face people.
So she does something reckless.
She sends Ella in her place.
Now living under a borrowed identity, Ella steps into a world she doesn't belong to-pretending to be someone she's not, surrounded by strangers who expect talent, confidence, and truth.
And then there's Aron.
The strict and intimidating leader of the group. Sharp, serious, and impossible to fool. With a devilishly handsome face and a mind that notices everything, he senses something is wrong the moment he sees her.
Ella isn't who she claims to be.
As pressure builds, lies grow heavier, and Aron's suspicion deepens, Ella finds herself trapped in a role she can't escape.
How long can she pretend?
And more importantly... how is she going to survive being watched by the one person who sees right through her?
