She’s everything he needs to be. He’s everything she wants to be. Cassandra White is an inventor’s daughter. She’s unpredictable, witty, and tends to cause chaos among those around her. But when one of her recent creations goes wrong, it leaves her in the hands of the Upper City. Instead of facing harsh repercussions, her talent is noted by the prestigious Iris Academy and grants her a spot in their school. She finds herself taking this opportunity to give the Undercity some leverage. Yet as she attends, her adoptive father goes missing. When those she trusts most don’t believe her, it gives her no choice but to work with the academy’s Valedictorian, Arthur Elwood, who she despises, to find out what happened. After all, he’s the only one who believes her. As the lines between duties and desires blur, relationships build, relationships fall. And during their intense search for Cassandra’s father, they unravel hidden secrets deep within.
