Neverland Academy — Daelynn Quinn

It was the worst day of Daphne's life. Not only had her parents moved her from Atlanta to the middle of nowhere, but her boyfriend broke up with her in the middle of a crowded club and her parents grounded her for a month for sneaking out and stealing the BMW. All in one night! If she were back home in Atlanta it would be no problem. She could always find ways of getting around her punishments. But this was rural Georgia. And there was nowhere to go but woods and farmland. That is, until Finn showed up at her window. Finn was the invincible mascot of Neverland Academy where Daphne's brothers attended. For the five years since he'd been expelled from the all-boys boarding school, he lived in the old slave tunnels under the former antebellum plantation home. He and his band of outcast boys lived for pulling pranks on the school's professors, and especially the headmaster, Byron Trappe, who had a personal vendetta against Finn. Daphne grew to love life under the academy. But there was one problem. She was falling for Finn. Hard. She knew he didn't want a relationship or anything that resembled growing up. But when the wall she built between them begins to crumble before her eyes, will she stay at the academy and face impending heartbreak? Or will she leave her heart behind and escape the dangers of criminal life, including a perilous encounter with the vengeful headmaster?
