I Fell In Love with my Bully

Kimberly Smith thought winning a scholarship to Greywood Academy would be her way out. Straight A’s. A fresh start. A future that her mom could finally be proud of. Instead, Greywood takes one look at her thrift shoes and homemade lunch—and decides she’s entertainment. They call her *Scumbag of the Week*. They film her, mock her, and turn every mistake into a headline. And the worst part? The boy who started it is the one person she can’t avoid. Xavier Grey is the heir everyone fears, the boyfriend every girl worships, and the bully who knows exactly how to break people with a smirk. Kimberly swears she’ll survive him, not fall for him. Then the lines blur. A “dare kiss” goes viral. Someone pushes her into a pool. Her scholarship is suddenly **under review**—with “evidence” that makes her look guilty. Her only friend turns against her. Even her mother starts to doubt her. And Xavier—cold, controlled Xavier—starts showing up when it matters. Warning her away from traps. Paying to erase posts. Touching her tears like he hates that they exist. Greywood is built to crush girls like Kimberly. So why does its most dangerous boy look like he might burn it down for her?
