Kerensa Jenkins is on the verge of everything she's worked for--graduating from Tompkin Brook High and securing her spot at Wayden University, the college of her dreams, to become an RN. She has her future mapped out: finish school and start a new chapter with her seemingly perfect boyfriend, Justin.
But two things stand in her way: a dreaded drama class she's been dodging for three years and Ethan Nouri-the aloof, brooding classmate who seems to barely tolerate her presence.
For Ethan, graduation isn't just a milestone--it's his only way out. His mother's mysterious death five years ago left behind more questions than answers, and his father refuses to talk about it. But when Ethan receives a cryptic letter from his estranged brother, his resolve to uncover long-buried family secrets intensifies. The only way to break free from his father's suffocating grip and ever-watchful eyes? Survive drama class, graduate, and board a one-way flight to Dubai, where a coveted position at his grandparents' prestigious company awaits.
Forced into an uneasy partnership, Kerensa and Ethan must rely on each other to make it through the one class standing between them and their separate futures. But as rehearsals push them closer together, walls start to crumble, secrets surface, and the truth behind Ethan's mother's death begins to unravel.
Will Kerensa's carefully laid plans survive the unexpected? And as Ethan pieces together the past, will he finally find the answers he's been searching for or uncover something far more dangerous?
