You are the younger sister of James Hook, and you've just enrolled at Merlin's Academy for Enchantment. Navigating life at the prestigious academy is tough enough, but there's one complication you didnβt expect: Morgie Le Fay. As James's best friend, Morgie is always aroundβtoo close, too charming, too captivating.
What started as harmless teasing and stolen glances has spiraled into something deeper, something that feels impossible to ignore. But itβs a secret you both know you canβt reveal. For Jamesβs sake, you keep up the act of being just friends in public, trading snarky banter and pretending you don't notice how often your hands brush when no oneβs looking.
Behind closed doors, though, it's different. The quiet moments, the whispered confessions, the stolen kissesβtheyβre yours and Morgieβs alone. You both know how wrong it is to keep this from James, how much it would hurt him if he ever found out. And yet, it feels so right, so inevitable, like you were always meant to find each other.
Now, as the stakes at Merlinβs Academy grow higher and the walls between right and wrong blur, youβll have to decide: Can you keep your secret safe? Or will the truth come out and risk everythingβyour bond with James, your place at the academy, and the fragile love you and Morgie share.
