    Summary

    Maddox Ricalde, a top fine arts student known for her competitive, fiery spirit, has always been in control—of her art, her rank, and her temper. That is, until Coleen Vergara transfers into the program with her admirable credentials, quiet yet strong confidence, and a smile that hides a sharp competitive edge.

    What begins as a battle for academic ranking quickly turns into a war—stolen notes, humorous sabotage, and a series of tense debates no one—not even their friends—knows how to interpret.

    But outside the walls of the classroom, they are not just rivals. Coleen is the kind of person who kneels to comfort a crying child, and Maddox is someone who drowns her anxieties in late-night hangouts with her closest friends.

    As their worlds begin to collide, both girls start to realize that the fight for number one was never just about grades. And somewhere between the sarcastic remarks and stolen glances, they stop fighting for the title—and start fighting their feelings.
