Jace Herondale and Clarissa Morgenstern grew up together while their parents toured with their successful rock band, The Uprising. Since the band's rocky break up and their sudden separation, Jace and Clary haven't spoken to one another in years. After an arranged reunion set up by their parents, one unexpected offer will turn everyone's lives upside down. AH, AU.

Clarissa Morgenstern has been in a verbally-and occasionally physically-abusive relationship with her boyfriend, Sebastian Verlac, for over six months now. She's convinced that he is the way he is because he wants her to be better. As long as he loves her, it's alright. Right? But when the Lightwoods move into Clary's school, what happens when Jace is too smart to fall for the act?
