just like there are a few certainties in life-taxes and death-there are also a few at magnolia high school: the marching band winning another competition, and the football team losing another game. and in that similar inevitable fashion, every friday night, band director cecilia washington and football coach charlie morgan would somehow, someway find something new to argue about. written in third person(at the end, i might add chapters for both main characters in first person)! constructive feedback/criticism appreciated(i like to read comments)! :D please note that this story is for fun, and i'm just a high schooler, so my writing may not be up to par! thank you for giving my story a chance! :)

The night Maelys was born, a storm made a decision for her. A desperate woman, a coerced midwife, and a courtyard where someone died in the rain conspired to place one infant in a palace and erase another from the record entirely. Twenty-two years later, someone has come to unmake it, and she has twenty-two years of righteous fury, a powerful patron, and the specific weapon of a truth that supports multiple stories at once. Raised in the painted corridors and orange-blossom courtyards of Solenir Palace, Maelys knows how to read a room before she enters it, how to wear humor like armor over something more serious underneath, and how to survive in a court that admires her with one hand and doubts her with the other. She has been exceptional here her entire life. She knows what exceptions are for. When the girl she unknowingly replaced arrives with documents, damage, and the kind of righteous anger that is the most dangerous kind because it is not entirely wrong, nothing careful is enough anymore. With a conspiracy threading through the court's most elegant rooms, a bodyguard who has been keeping a report in a locked box for eight years waiting for the right person to receive it, and a crown prince who asks before he touches and is not without fault and is learning the difference between those two facts, Maelys must fight for her name, her life, and the identity she has spent twenty-two years choosing rather than receiving. This is a slow burn interracial historical romance with explicit intimacy, graphic violence, and a world that does not soften its edges for the comfort of anyone in it. It is a story about what is owed and what is chosen, about love as a continuous practice rather than a destination, about darkness that stays and is carried rather than resolved, and about a woman who refuses, repeatedly, in every room that tries to define her, to let anyone else decide who she is. Dark. Tender. Permanent. Earned. ©️ _RelleLebby_ // R. L.

And with each clash between Ela and Sawyer, the line between hate and something far more dangerous starts to blur. The killer is watching. Their teams are cracking. And the greatest risk may be the fire neither of them can fight.
