Secrets of Blue Bell: A Love in the Shadows
Amanda Forry/Fino
He was the one man she shouldn’t want… and the only one she couldn’t resist.
Oliva Calloway was raised in Portland’s high society, sheltered and adored. But when she steps inside the storied halls of Blue Bell Boarding School, she finds herself entangled in a web of lies, betrayal, and forbidden desire.
Whispers of missing girls echo through the campus. Shadows stretch across its ancient walls. And the one man she can’t escape—Headmaster Dashwood—may be the most dangerous secret of all.
As Oliva digs deeper, love collides with danger, and she must decide: expose the school’s darkest sins, or surrender to a passion that could destroy her.
Dark, seductive, and unflinching, Secrets of Blue Bell: A Love in the Shadows will grip you until the very last page.

Author’s Note
Secrets of Blue Bell is more than fiction—it’s also my way of bringing awareness to the realities of sex trafficking and sexual violence against minors. As a self-advocate, I believe in shining light on dark truths and holding abusers accountable.
Thank you, Amanda
