If you're into dark bully romance, I highly recommend this book. I can't wait for the next installment, hurry up July! Alright....I hate read this book after the first few chapters....which is not a healthy thing to do but I wanted to finish it even if it was such a bad time.

If you enjoy steamy, drama-filled reads, with a dose of suspense and a cliffhanger ending then this book is for you. By the second half to last third, I was hooked on the story itself and while the big ending scene and cliffhanger event didn't quite hit the mark, I definitely wish book two was ready to go and can't wait to read it and see what happens. This is the first book written by J.L. Weil that I've read+. Somehow I have skipped this author... maybe that is because she has written mostly paranormal books and I am in my HS/bully romance period; however, I am surprised how much I enjoyed this book, which means that I'll try other books written by this author.Within months of meeting, SHE is about to marry “Steven Patterson, Elmwood’s most eligible bachelor,”

This is the second book this week that I thought the second book was already out and as I go search for book 2 and find out that IT ISN'T!!!! I AM GUTTED lol. So this is my first book by this author (as I do not really care for paranormal), but this is a series I will be continuing. To me this is a classic academy, bully, reverse harem romance. Just so much fun! Josie - she is hella bad ass! She’s such a tough, don’t-mess-with-me type of cookie. She stands her ground and gives as good as she gets. I don’t mind a damsel in distress female lead character, but it’s completely refreshing when I find a book with a heroine like Josie.Also the twist at the end was just dumb in this setting. The plot was sub par due to it not being flushed out more. Most of the writing was based on Josie's thoughts and feeling which did not reflect a lot on the plot until about the 70% mark which was way too close to the ending to be good.
