If We Were Villains

Seven theatre students at an elite conservatory. A friendship forged in Shakespeare and secrets. One unforgettable night that changes everything. M.L. Rio's atmospheric debut is a dark academia dream—think The Secret History meets the Globe Theatre, where the line between performance and reality blurs dangerously. Moody, obsessive, and utterly compelling, this is a love letter to Shakespeare wrapped around a gripping mystery. Perfect for anyone who's ever wanted to live inside a play (consequences be damned).
