The Rebel’s Favorite Boy

After returning to an elite academy, broke scholarship student Nathan wants only to graduate unseen. Instead, he is seated beside Theo, the board chairman’s son, who forces Nathan to write an apology—and soon claims his seat, meals, rides, and attention. Theo’s violent protection earns him suspension, as Nathan’s job and Honors Track offer threaten to separate them. As rumors spread and Theo’s past resurfaces, Nathan must choose between the future he fought for and the boy who refuses to let him go.
