Deep within the mist-shrouded Scottish Highlands, Sorrowsong University hides dark secrets behind its gothic stone walls. For scholarship student Ophelia Winters, the elite campus is not a place of prestige, but a battlefield. She arrives with a single, burning purpose: to investigate the suspicious deaths of her parents and take down the powerful man she holds responsible. Her mission hits a dangerous snag in the form of Alex Corbeau-Green, the campus golden boy and son of her prime suspect. Ophelia is certain Alex is as cold and calculating as his father, but when a sinister stalker begins targeting her, the lines between enemy and protector blur. Forced into proximity with the arrogant athlete, Ophelia discovers that the man she intends to destroy might be the only person she can actually trust. As their mutual hostility shifts into an undeniable, slow-burn yearning, Ophelia’s resolve begins to fracture. Caught in a web of murder, mystery, and dark academic intrigue, she faces an impossible choice: complete her quest for vengeance or surrender to a passion that could ruin everything. In a game where everyone has a motive, will love prove to be her ultimate undoing?
