i enjoyed this a lot. remi is forced to move to a different school which happens to be her rivals' school. what makes matters worse is that she also lives with her rival. she's bullied by zayd and his two friends. things start being held over her and she has no choice but to go along with what zayd's is saying. she doesn't get treated well by her father and things get revealed about him and her boyfriend. i wasn't expecting half of this book but thoroughly enjoyed everything about it.

I’m all for dark subject matter but this was not well edited. The pacing was off and the dialogue was stilted. The FMC kept jumping around from person to person and the love interests hated her and then all of sudden didn’t. The “villains” were mean or just obtuse for no real reason. I don’t know…just kind of strange the way this unfolded. I gave a second star because I have to say the spicy scenes were pretty good.

This book sucked me in right from the beginning. I really enjoy Harleigh’s writing and the way that it flows and makes reading her books easy and they fly by!
While this one isn’t as dark as say the Devil’s Bargain, it is still pretty dark and I would suggest reading trigger warnings for this one.
This book follows Remi and her relationships with various people in this book when she’s forced to move to a new town and her world gets turned upside down when she has to move in with none other than the star Basketball player form her Rival school. Now this isn’t your traditional reverse harem that your used to and not because there is a female in the harem. Each relationship is complicated and Remi fights her feelings for each of them. Her father is a mean bastard and we find out her boyfriend Bennet isn’t who he says he is. Zayd and Jacob are such dicks but you kinda can’t help but love them anyways and Legacy is a bad@as b!tch and always gets what she wants (and that’s Remi

This book just sucked me right in and never let me go. There was so many things happening in this one and they always had my full attention. I really enjoyed following through these people’s lives and seeing what they were up to. The characters in this one were super fun to follow along and I really enjoyed being part of it.
I’m really excited to see what happens next because this book ends on a cliffhanger and I just want more.
I received an arc of this book and this is my honest opinion

And Harleigh has done it again!! I couldn't stop reading The Rivals' Touch. I'm usually a slow reader but when it comes to Harleigh's books, I devour them.
The dynamics in this one are soooo addictive!! I just loved the love/hate relationship between Remi, Legacy, Zayd and Jacob. And Legacy's character development is class! Hated her at the beginning and ended up loving her and having the hots for her. Who doesn't like a sexy queen bully?
