This year, the house expected the usual desperate applicant. Instead, Arianna Wallace walked through the door. Former homecoming queen. Ex-girlfriend of Jake Hunter, Crestmore’s star quarterback.

He wants me to stay out of his way. I want to get under his skin. One look at single dad Callum Blackwood, and I know I messed up.
