I am not going to lie this one was a bit hard to rate. I dont really like the main characters but they did have charater growth towards the near LAST CHAPTER. Its nearly over and the author gave us a redemption arc.
What I didnt like:
All I hear is Jason talking himself down and degrading himself, how he can’t live without dean and has only dean. How he’s so devoted to Dean. Yet when he is sad he runs off to his lesbian friend. So is she just his emotional dump bin then? Its also hard to like Jason because although his SA and trauma was supposed to make us sympathize him and adore him, yet, I find it difficult to do so when he goes around acting like a needy baby in front of Dean. I also agree with the other reviews that he IS A DOORMAT. Although the doormat part wasnt too bad considering he did go to Romone or whatever his name was, which means hes unlike some doormats who will stay CELIBATE while their 'partner' bangs the whole town....more
Just when I thought it couldn't get any worse, it DID. The characters and plot was ridiculous and unbelievable. Everything was random and all over theJust when I thought it couldn't get any worse, it DID. The characters and plot was ridiculous and unbelievable. Everything was random and all over the place.
The heroine became a despicable character with zero empathy for anyone but herself and her men. She is so rude with no manners, no likeable traits and she loves to act as the superhero trying to save everyone. Trash personality. Am I supposed to like her because I don't. In the other books she was a lot more decent.
She even snaps, demands when she talks. Not like a girlboss but a shrew. I believe that she demanded over 55 times in this book. She does not say, talk but demands.
SPOILERS
- She burned her mother and her best friend alive when she found out they were doing the nasty. She felt betrayed because she was in love with her the best friend, Dante. The guy wasn't even hers. He is NOT her boyfriend so I don't know how she can feel so self justified to burn her MOTHER and the guy alive. She felt betrayed so she felt justified to burn her 'betrayers' (its written in the book) that is some warped sense of self justice.
- The mother isnt even bad. She protects the h, sold her body to bring food to the table
- Once she found her aunt and knew about the details of her mother's childhood. How the pedo dad r*ped her mother, she did not give a crap.
- There's also a ridiculous scene where she suddenly has the ENTIRE Philly criminal underground on her payroll. This is so dumb. She's supposed to be a student who was stuck at some haunted school. Yet she has connections with a criminal organization. Make that make sense.
-Suddenly an old god who’s lived for over 500 years decides to help the heroine to free her friends. She made a deal with the god. He gives her powers to save the people in the school and in exchange, she go with him.
The story builds up the tension that she will be gone forever and her sacrifice will help save the world. The h kept crying that she will be gone and leave the guys behind but when it was time for the sacrifice, the headmistress suddenly kicked her and became the sacrifice instead (she wanted to be with the god as her reward). The god also accepted this because the headmistress's soul was 'beautiful.' So the heroine survived. Just like that. I was speechless. Imo she should've just died since the entire story was centered around the idea that she will be gone forever. It became lackluster.
QUOTES AND RANTS
“ One day, I came home and she’d left. She’d taken her clothes and some photographs of the two of us and food and money and… she ran.” Deborah’s shoulders shuddered as she suppressed a sob. “She was sixteen years old.” That sucks, but I don’t see what this has to do with anything. I wanted to tell Deborah to get on with it, but Trey held up a hand to silence me. “Please, Deborah. Take your time.” No, don’t fucking take any more time. After a few deep breaths, Deborah continued. “I tried to find Jess for many years, but she’d hidden too well. .After a while, I stopped wanting to find her. It was a selfish decision. I needed to focus on getting back to school.”.
WHAT. The way she acts and thinks had me balling my fists. How can you act like that when someone is talking to you about their tragic past. Even her bully has more manners. He held her back from rushing the lady.
“Tell me,” I snapped. Deborah froze, her hand gripping her cup so hard her knuckles had turned white. “Of course. I’d forgotten that you don’t have the patience for small talk. Sit down next to Trey.” “I prefer to stand.” I didn’t like how cornered I felt in this room, as if there was no escape. I moved around the table to stand by the door.”
The way she speaks to an older person irritates me. She has no manners at all. Like a shrew. Even if she's from the bad side of town, you'd expect better character than this.
“Her voice trailed off. Her fingers traced the edge of the paper. “What?” This is tedious. Why can’t she just say what she has to say so we can get back to the school—
She calls it tedious when someone is speaking to her. Even if she was in a hurry she should never act like that.
My sister Jessica ran away from home. Our father was… a monster.” She squeezed her eyes shut. “A pedophile, if you want the technical term for it. He mistreated me for years, until I got old enough to fight him off. “What does this have to do with me?” I demanded. “Does this Jessica have the same power or something?” Deborah flashed a sad smile. “Yes, and also no. Hazel, your mother is my sister.
In the end she gets pregnant with the 3 men and THE END....more

Everything about this book was weird, it passed by like a blur. I would cringe while reading it in public. It was so god damn cringy. The story was so ridiculous that I found it funny.
Also, the cliffhangers are driving me insane.
The plot twist at the end made me laugh. I feel as if the author was inspired by Harry Potter but instead of a nosy Harry, you get a nosy heroine who acts and does not think about the consequences. When she gets in danger, one of the heroes come to rescue her. Harry Potter but a parody with shitty love interests. I would roll my eyes at her silly behaviors, it’s as if she’s constantly wishing for death.
Another heroine who is lusty and easily aroused whenever she is near the guys. She’s easily influenced and cannot control her body when she is near them. ‘My body says yes but my mind says no’ ...more
I want to give this a negative review (I rarely give out a 1 ⭐️ rating so that speaks volume)
WORST book ever. Abuse and manipulation Thank you, next.

The mc does not have an ounce of dignity and a doormat who lusts after her ‘hot’ bully/ stepbrother.
IVY (who is sadly the mc) meets Brix (unfortunately the hero) again at a bar after coming back to her hometown. Brix doesn't recognize Ivy and flirts with her; however she rejects him as she ‘hates’ him for making her miserable throughout her teenage years. Brix is the lead singer of the boy band at the bar and Ivy works there as a waitress in order to save up money.
Unfortunately the so-called enemies to lovers/ hate does not last long as Ivy keeps drooling over him. Ivy’s mum and Brix’s dad get married making them step-siblings. Ivy cannot control her lust over her new step brother and vice versa.
SPOILERS She keeps saying that she wants nothing with him meanwhile, she oogles him like a creep. She kept staring at Brix as he masterbates in the toilet. CRINGE.She finds it hot and gets wet when he moans her name as he master bate. She clenches her p*ssy and feels the need for his ding dong ARGFGHFGESA.
Not only that she turned when he bought a random chick over to f*ck her in his bed wishing it was her in his bed …WTF. She is supposed to be a smart straight A student yet, she thinks with her v*gina rather than her head allowing lust to consume her. When they first had sex, there was even no condom and she wasn't even on a pill. I’m sick of these mindless characters.
Ivy goes on a date with this sweet boy, Trevor but after the one night stand, she does'nt want to string him along making an excuse that she has to leave for the town and go back to her college
She even rejected the guy in front of Brix, who was so perfect and nice, Trevor. THAT WAS SO RUDE OF HER, THATS PUBLIC HUMILIATION AND SHE SHOULD KNOW THAT AFTER WHAT BRIX DID TO HER FOR THE PAST YEAR. Trevor on the other hand is a total sweetheart and perfect and I would totally go for him. Ivy (the character) says she knows that she will never feel the connection with anybody except for Brix. ARE U KIDDING ME. UGH. She should explore herself tbh. Stop studying for a while and see what’s beyond your horizons.
Girl is basically head over heels after a one night stand with the bully who basically ruined her entire school year: calling her names, embarrassing her, and more which I forgot since she herself forgot the pain she went through due to him. This woman cannot get enough of her douchebag stepbrother’s d*ck and the way he treats her: hot and cold was just maddening.
Dude treated her like shit calling her a “loser” and made bets about her with his friend. He plans to f*ck her, make her fall for him and send her crying ass back home (his words) But this does not stop this desperate heroine from craving and lusting over her new stepbrother. There was a time in the book where Brix took Ivy to the beach and she squirms in her seat desperately seeking friction between her legs as she pictures them skinny dipping in the ocean.
Brix is nothing but an asshole and a douchebag with no redeeming qualities. He thinks that by cooking a burger for her it would just magically make the inconsiderate ways he behaved towards her go away. HOW OBNOXIOUS. I want to yell and scream. Ivy is such a doormat. It's so disappointing that a bit of a sob story would let her forgive the way he treated her and made her life a living hell. He has an alcoholic mother so he uses her as a punching bag. What gives him the right to do that to anyone, He admits that he treated her like garbage and she says You're right. LOL.
At this point I am so done with Ivy idk what I was expecting from her.

Backstory
So the reason he treated her like garbage was because she saw him coming out of the principle’s office with tears in his eyes and she stopped to ask him if he was alright. WHAT THE FUDGE. His parents just divorced. I won't even give the credits to this woman and man and call them hero and heroines as they dont deserve the title.
The reason I did not give this a one star is because it was quite interesting and I wanted to know what would happen next but the characters were so infuriating!!...more
