Novel & Cerita Web Protective Campus

Mara Ellery doesn't remember the fire that took her childhood — just a scholarship she never applied for, a pendant that shouldn't exist, and eleven years of silence where her past should be. At an elite university built on old money and older secrets, Mara is drawn into the orbit of Jude Halden: guarded, magnetic, and quietly connected to a trust he doesn't even know funds her education. Every hour she spends near him, that pendant turns warm against her skin. It has never done that for anyone else. But Jude isn't the only one watching her. As Mara pulls on a thread someone clearly wants left buried, she starts to sense a second presence circling the edges of her carefully rebuilt life — someone tied to the same buried past, pulling her toward a choice she doesn't yet understand she'll have to make. Every person she asks for help gives her the same rehearsed warning to stop looking. She doesn't stop. This slow-burn campus mystery follows Mara as sealed records, hidden identities, and a secret world she was never meant to touch start closing in — and the truth may not let her choose just one path back to it. The fire that took her memory is still out there, waiting to be found. Getting it back might cost her everything, including who she thought she'd fall for.

Maya Vance hates Liam Cross. The Upton University cheer captain and heir to a billion‑dollar empire has been raised to despise everything about the soccer captain and his family. So when Liam slides a fake engagement contract across a coffee shop table, she laughs in his face. Then her father calls. Sign it. Or lose everything. The SEC is investigating both companies for insider trading. A fake romance between the heirs is the only PR move that can save their families from ruin. Six months of pretending. A diamond ring that feels like a leash. A Homecoming crown they must win together while their families secretly undermine each other. But Maya doesn't expect Liam to hold her hand like it matters. She doesn't expect him to defend her when anonymous threats appear in her locker. And she definitely doesn't expect to miss her period. Two pink lines change everything. Now she's carrying the unexpected heir to both empires – the one thing that could either end the feud or trap her forever. As they race to uncover who forged the SEC emails and exposed their families, Maya realizes the biggest threat isn't the villain trying to destroy them. It's the boy she was never supposed to love. And the life growing inside her.

He placed one hand on the bed beside me, his gaze lingering on my face. “Do you know how to play?” I frowned. “Play what?” His lips curved into a slow smile. “Make them jealous too.” “Do you know how to fake a moan?” My heart started skipping. Lilian Williams has spent years trying to become someone worth loving. Behind her family's wealth and perfect surname is a girl who hates looking in the mirror, hides the scars on her face, and keeps giving everything she has to a boyfriend who makes her feel like she's never enough. Then Michael humiliates her in front of everyone. Desperate to save face, Lilian makes one reckless claim. Alex —the university's hockey captain and Michael's cousin—is chasing her. He isn't. But instead of exposing her lie, Alex agrees to play along. One week. One fake relationship. One chance to make Michael regret humiliating her. For Lilian, pretending to be Alex's girlfriend should be easy. Except Alex has his own problems. Between the pressure of being hockey captain, his rivalry with the Westbrook Ravens, and the expectations placed on him by the people who control his future, he has no time for a fake relationship. Yet somehow, Lilian becomes the one distraction he doesn't want to escape. As their staged romance pulls them deeper into university drama, hockey rivalries, and Fiona's growing interest in Alex, the line between pretending and falling becomes dangerously thin. Lilian only wanted to prove she could be wanted. Alex never expected to want her for real.
