It’s where legacies are built, alliances are forged, and the people at the top make the rules, long after graduation. They’ve decided I don’t belong here. That the name Callaghan comes with too much history and not enough forgiveness. My father is gone, the old order is shifting, and a legacy seat on the Board has opened—one that controls the ruling Houses and everything they touch. If I want to keep my footing, I’ll have to stop waiting for a place at their table…and start taking up space. The problem is, power at St. Augustine’s has three faces—and they move as. Aidan O’Connell: charm wrapped around calculation. Cormac Byrne: quiet intensity that makes promises feel like threats. Declan Finnegan: the kind of presence you can’t ignore, even when you should. My rivals. My enemies. My inevitable undoing. The kind of men who don’t tolerate anyone else laying a hand on what they want. They expect me to bend. To accept whatever role they’ve written for me. What they don’t realise is that I didn’t come here to be managed, and I won’t be locked out of my own inheritance. Every secret I rip open, every sin I commit, pulls us closer to a war none of us is ready to face. When it finally turns violent, I’ll either take my place beside them…or drag them down with me. Because corruption isn’t my downfall. It’s my birthright. This is a dark reverse harem contemporary romance book 1 out of 3 in a brand new series by USA Today Bestselling Author, Eve Newton.
