The Ice Prince's Secret Deal
Survival among the elite comes with a hidden cost.

Olivia Rivera has perfected the art of blending in at Northlake University, an elite campus ruled by trust funds, designer coats, and inherited wealth. With only seventeen dollars in her checking account and a fraying canvas bag, Olivia lives in a completely different reality than her privileged peers. She balances grueling work shifts, study notes deliveries, and scholarship forms just to survive a school where a thirty-eight dollar field trip fee for her brother is a devastating financial blow. In her economics class, Olivia knows the harsh truth: the cost of failure is never evenly distributed, and students with no safety net cannot afford to take risks. But when the crushing weight of her financial reality threatens to pull her under, playing it safe may no longer be an option. Dive into a gripping story of ambition, class divide, and the desperate fight to survive.
