Official synopsis Publisher
Scandal tore them apart, circumstance brought them back together, but only hope can redeem them.
She was the girl from the wrong side of town, and he was the boy destined to take the throne. But when they were younger, that didn’t matter. Once, Marlon King and Maia Lawson were inseparable-until one fleeting moment ruined everything and proved maybe they don’t belong in the same world. She was forced to leave town and he was left picking up the pieces.
Now almost five years later, Maia is back home. But she isn’t welcome.
At the prestigious Remington South Prep, Marlon is king-devastatingly handsome, heir to a major conglomerate, a football god, and smart-there’s no wonder he’s the envy of his peers. But beware. Marlon is a rich boy with an attitude. Cross him and it’s the guillotine.
When a brutal blast from his past arrives at Remington South, the very reason for his cruel core, the claws come out and Marlon will stop at nothing to even the score.
What starts off as bitter resentment and a need to send Maia back to wherever she disappeared to, turns into something more as neither can deny their mutual attraction. Only, before they can rekindle any simmering flames, fate steps in, threatening to tear them apart once and for all.
