Publisher's summary

An addictive read!–Elle Kennedy, NYT Bestselling author

A bold tale that ups the bar for stories in this genre.–Adriana Locke, USA Today Bestselling author

Tropes:

enemies-to-lovers,

mystery,

college hockey romance

You’ve heard of these groups–the secretive ones that only the crème de la crème are invited into, the ones outsiders speculate about for centuries–I’m the second in my family invited to attend, but to them, I’m fresh meat.

New blood.

New money, too.

They think they’ll elbow past me, that I’m here for their amusement, for them to walk all over, they’ll find out soon enough that I’m not.

I may look like one of them, with my designer bags and clothes straight from the Parisian runways, but I’m not.

I’m here for answers, to take revenge for blood spilled on their centuries-old Persian rugs.

I transferred to Ellis University in search for answers about what happened to my older brother, who hightailed out of here, and my friend who seemingly disappeared into thin air.

I certainly wasn’t here for the attention of the star hockey player, regardless of how much he willed my eyes his way.

I wasn’t here for his scrutiny or his judgment or to read into his mysterious aura. I was here for the society, because only they held the answers I needed.

That was, until I found out that in order to get those answers, I needed to go through him.

He’s saying if I want in, I have to play by their rules, follow their lead.

It’s a game I’m willing to play.

I may be the second person I know of to be invited into their society, but I’ll be the first to make it out intact.

4 stars

I loved the story! Light on the romance but I'll definitely be reading more. Secrets, lies, betrayal. Good stuff!

I loved the h and her relationship with her brother. The loss of a star is Logan. He took a bit to warm up to and I really questioned his desire to be with Amelia, especially early on. Not a fan of his actions being one way but his words being another.

Loved it!!!❤️🐙

Claire’s story of mystery, suspense, and love gets 5 stars from me. I loved her detailed story of a mysterious society and how it unfolds in the life of the main character Amelia. I loved the characters Claire wrote about that, helped unfold the truth and mystery of this well written story. I was invested from the beginning to the end. Great job Claire. This is a standalone but there will be more stories from this series. Also, there is a bonus scene only on the kindle version.

Fantastic!

This story is amazing! It gripped me from the start. Such great suspense and keeps you intrigued throughout.

I love Logan and Amelia. Their dynamic gives you so many feels. I love the plot and how Claire weaves the intricacies. It sucks you in. I couldn’t wait to get to the bottom of everything!

This is a fantastic story filled with mystery that keeps you on the edge of your seat until the end. I loved it!

Great suspense romance!

This felt like a college version of Riverdale with hotter romance! I loved the combination of secret societies, twists and turns, and murder mysteries. Mae was a great FMC for me and her slow burn romance with Logan was top tier. I liked that we got a little sports romance in there as well. I thought the ending had a lot of suspense and it played out well! I did this one on audio and I thought Aaron and Stacey did a great job. Logan’s chapters were definitely my favorite since I’m such an Aaron Shedlock fan 😅

Great Book

I can’t stress how much I loved this book the story started off with a mystery and just continued to build. Logan’s love for Amelia was swoon worthy. Claire Contreras was a new author for me I had never read or listened to any of her books prior to this one but now I am definitely a fan. Great narrations from both narrators they really kept me engaged with the story.

I needed a DO NOT DISTURB sign while listening

The story kept me enthralled! I usually don't like suspense in books because it gives me anxiety I couldn't stop listening! There were so many twists and turns! There was romance that I love but so much more!!

Interesting storyline...

This book indicates its a stand alone which is probably my only complaint. I would have liked to have known more about the characters and where exactly their futures go.
