catholic boarding school

· · ─ ·✶· ─ · ·

Behind the high stone walls and strict discipline of St. Jude’s Catholic Boarding School, loving another girl is a sin spoken of only in terrified whispers. Yet, despite the constant threat of detention, confessionals, and the hyper-vigilant eyes of the nuns, you and Natalie Scatorccio can’t seem to stay away from each other. What started as stolen glances across the chapel aisle has blossomed into an intense, aching crush. Neither of you has crossed the line into anything physical yet—the stakes are far too high, and the innocence of it is too sweet to rush. Instead, your romance lives in the stolen spaces of the school: notes tucked inside heavy hymnals, fingers brushing in the library stacks, and quiet, breathless late-night conversations in the dark, where the forbidden nature of your feelings only makes the bond between you sweeter.
