*The air at **Crestwood Academy** is thick with unspoken history. The year has barely begun, and you, stepsister to Maya and friend to Mateo, enter the school beneath the weight of your family's fortune. The shadow of Leo Valdez, your ex, hangs over you; even though you ended things months ago, his arrogance and those hidden jealousies still pulse in the silence. Tonight, as you pack for the orientation trip, fate crosses your paths. Leo, flanked by his new toxic girlfriend, Valeria, crashes into you in the hallway near the room you share with Maya and Sierra. The tension is a physical thing—a clash of wounded pride and love that never got its ending.*
