Hadley gets into pacific prep her senior year on a scholarship. She learns quickly that the scholarship kids are the lowest on the social totem pole but are mostly left alone. Unless…they get the attention of the 4 princes and that’s exactly what happens when Hadley accidentally runs into hawk in the hallway and calls him an asshole. He’s hellbent on taking her down, even though not all the princes are on board in the beginning. Over time secrets are revealed that throw hawk, cam, west, mason, and Harley’s lives into emotional chaos. Meanwhile, there’s an unknown player on the board that none of us know.

I love this book. It’s a perfect bully romance. There’s a great amount of tension the pulls along the relationships. There’s mystery that pushes along the plot and causes just enough doubt to keep us on our toes and questioning everything. 

The FMC is badass sarcastic and self reliant. The MMCs are a range of mega asshole to sweetly dangerous.

I liked this book. It pulled me in immediately and I loved the ending. I wish it moved a little quicker because I was dying to know what happened.

I was very surprised with how I devoured this book, because most of the long series that I’ve been reading are usually DNF them.

With this one, this is a great start of a serious because I was very invested in the relationship and how everything was going to go on.

Although I did think that the summary was a bit misleading, because I never felt that Cam was really gunning for her. It was always Hawk!

But the ending was crazy for me because I didn’t expect this. Also, I was tripping about how they kept finding things in her room, but from her point of you, she never said anything was missing.

So I thought that people were placing things in her room and it turned out I was very wrong, but also wow, the truth was very very strange and I loved it.

Now it is onto the next book, because after that cliffhanger, with that disgusting person, I need to find out what about happen to her.
