Story

The story

When Bella moves in next door to Harper, she is certain she is the chosen one: a System grants her annual rewards, and she selects Devastating Beauty, Photographic Memory and Irresistible Charm. What Bella discards drifts through the wall into Harper, who quietly inherits Flawless Symmetry, Mental Agility, Peak Vitality, Magnetic Warmth and Kinetic Grace.

Harper uses those scraps to build her own path. She represents her district at the National Youth Math Decathlon, where she beats Cole, heir to one of New York City's four legacy families, and the two begin exchanging proofs and study guides. Bella coasts on memorisation and her practised smile, dismissing Harper as a grinder.

At Richmond High's anniversary gala, Bella draws the cameras, but Harper's genuine warmth and a crimson-silk solo win the auditorium. Bella is crowned Queen Bee; Harper loses by a handful of votes. The discarded rewards may yet decide who truly rises.

Opening excerpt

My family and Bella’s family moved into the Oak Creek Estates on the exact same Tuesday.

That afternoon, I was in my new bedroom, carefully organizing my bookshelves, when a voice bled through the thin drywall separating our townhouses. It was Bella, and she sounded ecstatic—the kind of breathless, frantic joy of someone who had just scratched off a million-dollar lottery ticket.

These are the opening lines of chapter 1. Keep reading →
