Nothing to Fear (Wicked Games, #1)

Under the quiet stillness of Corvus College, where ravens flock, and the grounds themselves whisper, Asher Ambrose and Silas Blackwood’s paths are irrevocably changed.

Silas

I’ve never been myself at Corvus College. I was obligated to come here because my dad is the university president, and I wanted to play collegiate rugby. But behind closed doors, I’m not who they’ve made me out to be.

When my failing grades force me under the wing of the school’s most notorious bookworm, my resolve is tested more than ever. I can’t let him know who I really am, but the more time we spend in the concealed archives, surrounded by candlelight, dust, and books, Asher starts to see straight through me.

What’s more, Corvus’ Halloween Fright Nights have led to a series of encounters with a masked stranger, and I can’t shake the feeling that I already know him.

Asher

My senior year was supposed to be a breeze, until a series of events changed everything. I suddenly find myself consumed by a blond, slacker jock, who is more complex than any book I’ve ever read. Silas Blackwood is everything I shouldn’t care about, but there’s something fractured behind his eyes that calls to me.

Corvus College hides its ghosts well, but I’ve always been sensitive to the things others seem to ignore. Like the way Silas watches me, starving for something no one else has ever given him.

When our masks are finally dropped, and everything he fears is at his feet, we’ll have to decide if what we’ve found in the dark can survive the light.

Nothing to Fear is book one in the interconnected Wicked Games series set at the elite, invite-only Corvus College. You can jock x nerd, enemies to friends to lovers, forced proximity, masked Fright Night encounters, dark academia vibes, a little bit of rugby, and a whole lot of spice. Nothing to Fear can be read as a standalone. Welcome to Corvus College.
