What a brilliant story, full of dark bully romance that I am so addicted to. Having multiple POVs made this story so consuming. The Reapers and Little Doll had me reading their story non-stop. One of Shantel Tessier's best works, I will definitely be recommending it, I so wish for the audiobook to experience this all over again, it's so good!

OMFG what did I just read!!!!!!!! THIS. BOOK!!!!!!!! By far one of the best books I’ve read this year. It pulls you in and by the end you feel like you need to see a therapist while drinking an entire bottle of alcohol with everything that happens. Henley saw something that made her enemies with her four guy best friends, Dax, Scout, Law and Rellik. Then things aren’t as she thought and boy does the drama and revenge plotting begin. But Henley doesn’t break easily as much as the guys tried intimidating her. They all cared for her in their own way and all had different motives but things switch and you start scratching your head and wondering what in the world is going?!!! It’s hard to review this book without spoilers and it’s a book that you definitely have to dive in WITHOUT spoilers. You’ll be SHOCKED at the outcome of lots of things and the feelings that are developed, the betrayals the everything. It’s just sooooooooo good!!!!!! The ending was unexpected but I personally think it was well deserved. I want more of the Reapers!!

Wow! Shantel definitely knows how to write dark, bully romance. This book was not what I was expecting. This story with Henley and The Reapers- Scout, Law, Monroe and Rellik is packed full of twists, drama, action and steam. I didn’t see it playing out like it did, but I loved the ending. Thank you Shantel for another great story!!

“The founders of Westbrook go back generations, to the eighteen hundreds. They consist of four families—the Monroes, Laws, Relliks, and, you guessed it, the Scouts. Like I said, my four best friends own this town. They are known as the Grim Reapers.”
Henley Greene’s world is about to be turned upside down when she witnesses one of her best friends commit a horrific crime she wasn’t meant to witness.
Rape. Murder.
Henley tries to do the right thing and calls the cops as soon as she can and it goes to trial. Problem is? Her ex friends come from powerful families and got away with what happened that night.
Obviously these boys are pissed.
Obviously they want some vengeance against their ex-friend.
“It’ll be hard for Henley to cause any problems when she’s got four guys controlling her every move. Monroe wants her dead. But Scout and Law? They’re going to make her useful around here. On her knees or on her back, she’s about to learn what her punishment for her betrayal is.”
There’s four guys as main characters but this is not a reverse harem. This is MF and MFM and a ton of dub-con/non-con. If you have any type of triggers that include rape, I’d stear clear of this book.
The story is really about betrayal and vengeance. Friendships can only go so far before lies start becoming
suspicious and people you thought you knew, are in question.
This is one twisted tale that was completely full of mind fucks. It was extremely well written. When everything started coming to a head, my mind was absolutely blown away on who was the good guy/bad guy.
There’s some step-sibling tabooness as well.

If you liked Shantel's previous series about the Sharks then you are going to love this. It's dark, twisted and brutal with lots of triggers and I loved it. It had me on the edge of my seat throughout and I never saw the ending coming. Brilliant book.
I fucking loved this book. I read it in one day could not put it down. Holy shit the secrets. The unexpected. It was a ride. Henley
