The Classiest Passions

■■Story■■
You’re a young woman just entering college. Once part of the social elite, your life took a sharp turn when your father’s company, Wholesome Eats, went bankrupt during your childhood. Gone were the luxuries and ease—you had to learn that hard work is the only way forward.

After years of determination and study, you’ve finally earned a place at the prestigious Leonidas University. You chose this school not only for its academic reputation, but because it’s home to the Versailles Executive Club—an exclusive organization more influential than any sorority. With the connections you could make there, your future in business seemed all but guaranteed… or so you thought.

Your dreams begin to unravel when someone—likely backed by money—steals the position of top student. Fortunately, your childhood friend Alek manages to pull some strings and gets you into the club. But with its astronomical fees, how long can you really stay? And things only get worse when you clash with powerful enemies on your first day—enemies with wealth, status, and influence.

Among them is Nicolas Delacroix, a cold and cunning heir from one of the world’s most powerful families. He digs up a secret from your past and begins to blackmail you into doing his bidding. Just as the pressure mounts, a new figure enters your orbit: the charismatic Liam Watkins, a rebellious musician from a prestigious medical family.

Faced with difficult choices that could shape the rest of your life, you must decide who to trust, who to fight, and who might be worth falling for.

■■Characters■■
Nicolas Delacroix
At the very top of the social elite stands Nicolas—a calculating, arrogant man who knows exactly how much power he wields. Groomed since childhood to inherit his family’s global fortune, he exudes confidence and control. Nicolas keeps others at a distance behind a flawless poker face, never hesitating to manipulate those around him to get what he wants. And now, he has his sights set on you… but is it domination he’s after—or something else entirely?

Liam Watkins
Liam is the charming son of two renowned doctors, but he has no interest in following in their footsteps. Drawn instead to the world of music and creative freedom, Liam is the lead guitarist of the wildly popular band Crows at Dawn. With his carefree attitude and flirtatious smile, he lights up every room—and he seems particularly interested in you. Even wallflowers deserve a little sunshine, don’t they?

Aleksander Meyer
Your best friend since before your family lost everything, Alek has always been by your side. Now a famous actor, he’s admired by everyone at Leonidas University, but never forgets where he came from—or who you are. When he helped you get into the Versailles Executive Club, he also gave you time to think about his heartfelt confession from a few months ago. But how long can you leave a heart waiting?
