Starting over after my father’s sudden death was bad enough, but the four boys who rule Alstone College, my new university, are determined to make my life even more difficult. One in particular. Caiden Cavendish. My nightmare. My shadow. My stepbrother....

Bad things happen in threes, and they did. But my troubles are only beginning, and those I thought I could trust might be the ones who end up breaking me. They might think I’m just a pawn, but I’ll beat them at their own game. If I want to win, a vicious queen I’ll become....

They say bad things happen in threes. The first was when I lost my parents. The second came when I had to leave behind everything I knew to move across the world to live with my only remaining relative. But what was life for, if not for living? So I kept moving....

Knox Ashcroft. One of the so-called gods of Hatherley Hall. He's everything I despise—a spoiled, arrogant, lacrosse-playing rich boy. From the moment we met, he made it clear that the loathing was mutual. I don't belong in his world, and he wants me gone.

An ultimatum from my football team manager landed me here on this far-flung tropical island, where I'm expected to work on my issues in a rehab center for the elite. I'm not the only one here to curb their reckless behavior. My teammate, Theo Lewin, has been banished to the island with me.

Tristan Smith-Chamberlain. King of the gods of Hatherley Hall. Captain of the lacrosse team. The golden boy, loved by everyone…except me.

Roman Cavendish. The bad boy of Hatherley Hall. Once we were friends. Once I thought I meant something more to him. Once I was the person who knew him best. Until I left without an explanation, ruining everything between us. Now, I'm back, but Roman is no longer the boy I once knew.
