The Society's Favorite

Juniper Hale 7 stories

Summary

Clara Love came to Blackwood University with one goal: earn her degree, keep her scholarship, and leave. She has no interest in the university's elite social circles, its centuries-old traditions, or the whispers surrounding the mysterious Vesper Society. Then she receives an invitation. That's impossible. Freshmen aren't invited to Vesper. Ever. Clara ignores it. Then another invitation appears. And another. Soon, everyone wants to know why the secret society has taken such an unusual interest in a scholarship student who wants nothing to do with them. Especially Alexander Blackwood—the charming heir to one of the most powerful families at Blackwood. He's supposed to help Clara navigate the world she's been unexpectedly pulled into. Instead, he finds himself falling for the one girl who doesn't care about his name, his family, or his influence. But the deeper Clara gets into Vesper, the more she realizes her invitation wasn't a mistake. The Society knows something about her past. Alex knows more than he's telling her. And Clara's simple plan to graduate and leave may be the one thing Vesper refuses to let her do.
