Memories and Madness
Welcome back to Preston Academy, where secrets of the past come alive and every decision can change your fate.
In the sinister halls of Preston Academy, Avery stumbles upon a shattering truth: her connection to Alexander goes back further than she could have ever imagined. With this revelation comes a burden, an ancient secret that Alexander must keep at all costs. Since her transformation, Avery has been battling a dark force that threatens to destroy her. Together with her friends, she embarks on a dangerous search for a half-witch in New Orleans who can heal her. But in this city, nothing is as it seems, and trust can be deadly.
Just as they are within reach of their goal, an unexpected visitor shows up whose arrival puts everything in danger. Will Avery and her friends find a way out in time, or will everything they've fought for be destroyed in the nick of time?

Bianca Mov
In the quiet corners of Vienna, between translating texts and binding books by hand, Bianca Mov found herself drawn to the darker edges of storytelling—the kinds of tales where love isn’t soft and safe, but dangerous, forbidden, and utterly consuming. With a background in Transcultural Communication and Media Studies, she first made a name for herself behind the scenes as a translator and editor. But the stories in her own head wouldn’t wait. In 2021, she began writing what would become her debut fantasy series, and by 2023, her first book, Freedom and Betrayal, was in readers' hands.
Preston Academy
Behind the ivy-covered walls of an elite school hides a truth far more dangerous than bad grades or broken hearts. Preston Academy is a place where secrets aren’t just whispered—they’re weaponized. Where desire walks hand-in-hand with danger, and every friendship might be a carefully masked betrayal.
At the center of it all is Avery—a girl who’s learned to stay quiet, to survive. But when she crosses paths with a magnetic, enigmatic professor, her carefully guarded world begins to unravel. What begins as forbidden attraction spirals into something darker, something tangled in ancient curses and the echo of things long buried. Each book in the series peels back the glossy façade of privilege to reveal a world where power is everything and love might just cost you your soul.
Preston Academy consists of two books and series is set to expand with the upcoming release of two more books. The current recommended reading order for the series is provided below.
