I love the general idea of this book but it was executed poorly. The characters were unlikeable and I found the plot slow and boring. It was just a lot of bullying and abuse from the Heirs and not much plot. Plus the writing was not good and it needs some new editing but as I understand it, this book was earlier in their careers. I’m curious enough to keep reading for now in hopes they get better.

One of those books where everyone’s aggressively sexual all the time and constantly smirking, and the predatory boys are maybe (?) facing something forcing them to act that way, but we still don’t know the larger power players at work by the end, and tbh you can’t really uwu soft boy your way out of the crap they put the Vega twins through. (The Vega twins are written as though they are the same person. Idk why there are two girls. They seem to just be the same girl twice.)

Teacher/student relationship, riddled with non-con, the entire book is a dumpster fire of bullying and frustration. Boggled at what in here is supposed to get good.
