In the prestigious Wintersbrook Academy, where Kairos Blackwood, the representative of a powerful clan, has always been a leader, his life changes dramatically with the appearance of a mysterious ability. Forced to team up with Catherine, a girl from a different social circle, he is faced with a dangerous attraction that can even stop time. Kairos’s life, accustomed to strict control, gets out of control after his father’s death and after discovering that he has an unusual power. Catherine, for her part, constantly proves her right to a place in the academy, where people like Kairos are destined to win, while she must fight for survival. Kairos’s unexpected apology changes everything, turning fear and mistrust into an unstable alliance and into an attraction that grows into dependency—one for which it’s worth stopping time.
