Synopsis -
The next dark and sexy romantic suspense novel from the USA Todaybestselling author of Unteachable.
It only took one moment of weakness for Laney Keating’s world to fall apart. One stupid gesture for a hopeless crush. Then the rumors began. Slut, they called her. Queer. Psycho. Mentally ill, messed up, so messed up even her own mother decided she wasn't worth sticking around for.
If Laney could erase that whole year, she would. College is her chance to start with a clean slate.
She's not looking for new friends, but they find her: charming, handsome Armin, the only guy patient enough to work through her thorny defenses—and fiery, filterless Blythe, the bad girl and partner in crime who has thorns of her own.
But Laney knows nothing good ever lasts. When a ghost from her past resurfaces—the bully who broke her down completely—she decides it's time to live up to her own legend. And Armin and Blythe are going to help.
Which was the plan all along.
Because the rumors are true. Every single one. And Laney is going to show them just how true.
She's going to show them all.
My review ---->
This is a tough one for me. I LOVED Unteachable by this author and was super excited to receive and read the ARC provided. I didn't LOVE this one but I didn't HATE this one.
I almost DNF - I actually had to step away several times and try and come back to it. I think the biggest thing for me was the flip/flopping of the timeline from past to present. I had a hard time keeping up and the use of analogies she used - kind of lost me. I couldn't wrap my head around them at times.
This one is Dark! It's a Mind F*ck! With HUGE plot twist! In a Dark way - it's about Finding yourself. It's about Revenge. Halfway through the story it started to pick up for me and then there was an AH HAH moment and from then on.... I raced to finish! I was still left thinking WTH did I just read and maybe that is what the author wanted =)
Beginning - 3 stars
Middle 3.5 stars
Ending 3.75 stars
I won't detail the story. Or simply repeat the synopsis. I would say if you don't mind DARK TWISTED reads....with drugs and sex. M/F/F or F/F then this one is for you. Laney is seriously F*cked up and holds a lot of grudges and she is out to get revenge...one by one.......
