Young Adult Mystery / ThrillerOur School Has One Secret Rule
At Wrenhollow, there is one rule every student learns quickly: when the bell rings thirteen times, stay inside and pretend you heard nothing. Maren Cole did not come to the isolated boarding school to obey. Two years earlier, her sister Josie left Wrenhollow terrified, silent, and unable to explain what happened the night she nearly drowned. Now Maren has earned a place at the same school, determined to uncover the truth. But Wrenhollow protects its secrets carefully. Black feathers appear as warnings. Students disappear after midnight. A hidden society called the Wrens controls reputations, scholarships, families, and futures through a mysterious Book of Names. And Rhys Harrow, the powerful boy who keeps appearing whenever the tide turns dangerous, seems to know far more about Josie's past than he will admit. The deeper Maren investigates, the harder it becomes to tell who is protecting her and who is preparing her for the same fate as her sister. Because at Wrenhollow, secrets are not simply kept. They are enforced. And when Maren finally learns why Rhys was standing on the sandbar the night Josie almost died, the truth will change everything she thought she knew about him, the school, and the rule nobody has dared to break.

Seven years ago, June Marlowe froze on live television. Theo Ashby laughed. At least, that is what June remembers. The humiliating clip turned her worst moment into a town joke, destroyed the friendship she once had with Theo, and made mathematics something she could barely face without remembering that stage. Now seventeen, June has built a new life around art. She has even earned a conditional place at the Calloway Institute of Art and Design in New York. There is just one problem. She needs a B or better in AP Calculus to keep it. And she is failing. Then her mother announces that she has hired the best student tutor in Port Calder. Theo Ashby. The boy June has hated for seven years. Their tutoring sessions begin with insults, rules written on graph paper, and a contract designed to keep everything painfully simple. No talking about Brain Bowl. No touching her sketchbook. Sessions are strictly math. And absolutely no feelings. But the more time June spends across the kitchen table from Theo, the harder it becomes to fit him into the villain she remembers. He notices when she is about to panic. He teaches her mathematics through animation instead of making her feel stupid. He protects her when no one is supposed to notice. And every honest answer between them creates another crack in the story June has believed since she was ten. Because Theo has secrets. He volunteered to become her tutor. He has spent years carrying the truth about what really happened on that television stage. And the anonymous reader who has faithfully supported June's secret webcomic for three years may be much closer to her than she ever imagined. As old footage resurfaces, buried family guilt comes to light, and someone begins manipulating their past for personal gain, June must decide whether she is brave enough to confront the moment that changed her life. Not only to save her future. But to discover whether the boy she spent seven years hating was ever really her enemy at all.

Between a crumbling family inn, an unfinished summer list, a love triangle built on buried guilt, and a secret capable of destroying two families, Tessa must decide whether uncovering the truth is worth losing everything she thought her future would be. Because sometimes growing up means discovering that the life you planned was never really yours. And sometimes the only way forward is to stop living for the person who never got the chance.
