A friends-to-lovers dark academia romance set at the elite Scottish academy, featuring stunning stenciled edges and character art on the inside cover.

"I don't want to just be anyone to her, I want to be everything."

Charles Sinclair has been Victoria Belhaven-Wynford's best friend since fifth grade, the one person Tori can tell anything to-except how her stomach knots every time she's with her new boyfriend Valentine. Deep down, Tori knows what she feels for Valentine isn't comparable to her connection with Sinclair. But now her best friend is starring as Romeo alongside classmate Eleanor's Juliet in Dunbridge Academy's annual play, and Tori has been assigned to write their love story for the production.

Since their one kiss years ago, Tori has tried desperately to forget her feelings for Sinclair, convincing herself they're destined to be nothing more than friends. Valentine Ward, rugby captain and unofficial king of their boarding school, seemed like the perfect distraction-until Sinclair's obvious disapproval made everything complicated.

Now, she's trapped crafting the perfect love story for the stage while hiding her true feelings. As Tori writes romantic scenes for her best friend to perform with someone else, the line between fiction and reality begins to blur. How can she pen a love story for Sinclair and Eleanor when she wants nothing more than to be his Juliet?
