The World thought he was a god... But I knew the truth. He was the talented bad boy everyone wanted. I was the irrelevant geek everyone hated. He was the sun...drawing all of us in. I was a black hole...taking up space. He was destined to be a star. I was destined to remain an insignificant no one. Until he made me believe I was special...and then he destroyed me. I never thought I'd see Phoenix Walker again after he broke my heart, but fate had other plans. One tour. Eight weeks. Forty shows. Countless opportunities to make him pay. The world thought he was a god...but I know the truth.
Welcome to their kingdom. Cole Covington is the ultimate heartbreaker at school, admired by guys and desired by girls. But I’m not interested anymore. His looks and charm don’t impress me because I sense the darkness beneath his facade. Sometimes, the most beautiful people hide the ugliest truths, and saving someone often means walking with them through their struggles. On the other hand, Sawyer Church is the overlooked nerd at Royal Hearts Academy. Teased by girls and ignored by boys, she stands out to me. Sweet, curvy, and sarcastic, she’s genuine in a world of pretense. Despite her label as the chubby, Jesus-loving geek, she remains unapologetically herself—until I propose she be my fake girlfriend. Sometimes, the most beautiful souls conceal deep pain, and fighting for someone can be the key to their salvation. This is the second installment in the Royal Hearts Academy series. For a deeper understanding of the family dynamics, it’s recommended to read the first book featuring Jace and Dylan. WARNING: This series is a New Adult/High School collection of standalones filled with drama, angst, and flawed characters. If you seek a safe, sweet romance with perfect heroes and heroines, this series is NOT for you.
