All boys school

Not well liked she garners the unwavering attention of the school council, a group of privileged boys who eventually learns her secret and protects her.

An all-boys school.

A murder from long ago.

And a secret someone is trying to keep.

Another Great Book!

You have to read this book! I literally have gotten nothing done today besides read. CM does it again with another book that completely sucked me in. This one is a little different than some of the others she has written. A little mystery mixed in with the romance and omg that cliff hanger killed me. I need book 2 now.

Charlotte’s father has accepted a position as headmaster at an all boys school. The school wants to try integrating girls and charlotte is offered a position to attend the school as a trial. Charlotte decides to move from California to Connecticut with her father, but does so as a boy. She cuts her hair off, binds her boobs and dresses in baggy clothes and calls herself Chuck so that no one will know her secret. Once she arrives she keeps herself separated from the other students unwilling to interact which makes her a target for bullies - the school council members no less. She stumbles across an abandoned dorm building and discovers she was not the first girl to attend Adamson Academy - and the last one was murdered 10 years ago. She starts to investigate and finds herself being chased by knife wielding men and finding threatening notes left for her. Along the way the student council members start uncovering her secret.

I loved this book, and was drawn in from the get go. I was a little bit confused at the start by charlottes father, because at the very start he gives Charlotte the chance to go back to California but then very quickly changes tune and seems like he is forcing her to stay so I was stuck on that for awhile. The book ends on a cliffhanger and I am dying to read on and find out what happens.
