Life's cruelest lessons are taught outside the classroom.

Haven

Homeless, harassed, and hollow.

By day, I'm a poster child scholarship student, with my perfect GPA and bright smile.

By night, I'm counting pennies and praying no one discovers that I'm living out of my beat-up sedan.

Things get worse when a rich, influential, and wildly good looking senior, Kai, targets me for his cruel games.

His obsession with crushing me turns the halls of Agony Hollow College into my own personal hell.

I don't know what's changed since we were childhood friends, but Kai is bent on destroying my life.

And he nearly succeeds...until an enigmatic professor steps in to save me.

Professor Rooke's methods of dealing with my bully are far from conventional, his cruel lessons perhaps even more dangerous than Kai's.

But what choice do I have? My scholarship hangs by a thread, and with it, my entire future.

I'm caught in a battle between two men.

One wants to possess me.

The other claims only to want to protect me.

Will their lessons in cruelty make me stronger...or leave me scarred and broken?

At Agony Hollow, every encounter is a test I can't afford to fail.
