Rosa Thorne, a proud and fearless rose-hip girl, transfers to an elite fruit academy and instantly becomes the new campus belle. But her arrival draws the hostility of a powerful clique led by Selena Grape, pulling her into a vicious cycle of bullying, humiliation, and school politics. Refusing to be anyone’s victim, Rosa fights back with sharp wit, formidable combat skills, and a crucial recording that exposes the truth behind the school’s favoritism. Her bold resistance turns her from an isolated transfer student into a campus icon. Along the way, she grows closer to Kael Black, a mysterious blackberry boy and underground fighter haunted by a bloody family past. As campus conflicts give way to deeper secrets, dangerous power struggles, and the underground fighting world, Rosa and Kael become each other’s strongest allies—and possibly something more.
