About this listen

Dear Listener,

You want my advice? Never look a gift horse in the mouth. You don’t want to see the rotten teeth.

In this case, the gift is a scholarship to attend the prestigious Neveah University. The rotten teeth? Well, they came in the form of my brand new stepbrother and his little cohort of entitled, arrogant best friends. Four dangerously handsome and stupidly wealthy men who made up their minds about me long before we met. Men who are used to getting everything they want no matter what the price.

I was a big girl, I could ignore them. Then came the secret society hazing. Kidnappings. Crazy parties. Insane stunts. Mindblowing prizes. Even so, I could handle myself… until the secret and stolen moments with men I had no business falling for. It was enough to give a girl a nightmares.

God that was gooood!!!

I really love Tate James books. I’ve read her other series and love them but this one really takes the cake so far… it was sooo good!!! Ahhh it had me internally squealing (in a great way) it’s funny, spicy, thrilling and also so intriguing the whole time. The book does end on a pretty big cliff hanger so be prepared but luckily not too long of a wait for the next book!! So excited to read the rest of this series!! The narrator’s were also top tier, loved all of the voices 👏🏻👏🏻

Cliff hanger..... can't wait for book 2!

Great character developments, humour and suspense. The plot twists have left me with many theories. Another great book by Tate James.

Emotional Rollacosta

Great character development, i found the character voices were easy to listening. This store was really pulling at all of my emotions, I was laughing out loud, I was frustrated at some points (that I won't name), but the cliff hanger had me cry. .. please I need the second book, I need to know
