Sweet nightmare

2024
"Calder Academy is where the rogue paranormals go. The ones who break the rules or lose control. And when that happens for vamps, werewolves, witches, and dark fae? It gets pretty freaking scary. Clementine should know. Because she's trapped there. [Her mom] just happens to run Calder Academy, which paints a giant target on her back. The way she makes it through the dark halls is by steering clear of the things--and kids--who go bump in the night. Especially Jude Abernathy-Lee. But when a freak storm hits their isolated island, Clementine is stuck without a backup plan. The power is gone. The lights are out. And their worst nightmares are suddenly real--and out for blood. Now the only way to survive is to align herself with one evil to avoid the other. And the only thing worse than the idea of getting close to Jude? Secretly loving every minute of it"--Adapted from publisher description.
