On her third day at Yerev Academy, a prestigious, hyper-competitive elite school, transfer student Elara Vance arrives to find her desk completely smashed to splinters. Unbeknownst to her, the destruction was the byproduct of a brutal post-class brawl involving Adrian, the school’s most feared and brilliant delinquent. When the indifferent principal tells her a replacement will take a week, Elara is left stranded without a seat. Enter Adrian. Towering, hot-headed, and impossibly cunning, he offers her a deal: share his desk. Elara, desperate to survive in this cutthroat environment, reluctantly accepts, unaware that her new 'savior' is the very monster who broke her desk in the first place. As they are forced into suffocating proximity, Adrian plays a dangerous double game of protector and tormentor. But in a world where weakness is social suicide, proximity breeds a volatile, dangerous attraction that threatens to shatter both of their carefully constructed defenses.
