Those angry, hateful eyes haunt me. Not the ones of the man I accused of murder, but the eyes of his son.
I see them in the dark every time I close mine.

Trailer trash. “Poor Girl”, that’s what they used to call me. Now, I’m less than that. I’m nothing.

My life fell apart the day I watched my dad die. Four years later, I’m getting the chance to put it back together.

Crowned College. A world of privilege and ruthless money. I don’t belong, and one person will make sure I know it.

Quiet. Dark. Deadly. Insanely gorgeous. Logan. The one whose eyes haunt my nightmares.

I need to stay as far away from him as possible if I want to get out of here alive.

Logan

What she doesn’t know is I was there too. I saw how her dad died. I know she lied.

REVIEW

"She ruined my dad’s life, and now she’s ruining me."

Omg! Another bully romance and A New Author for Me! This was such an angsty and fast pace story read I flew on this. I really like Violet and Logan's character the sexual tension is🔥.

basically the story revolves when Violet witness he's dad being murder, and she claimes Logan Aston's father is the suspect. 4 years later she receives a letter from Aston's lawyer that they granted her a college scholarship so that she can pursue her dreams to become a doctor. At first she's very reluctant to accept the offer since she the family is the reason why her father died. But eventually practicality wins and from there the story progress.

Bully Romance is one of my favourite trope especially if the execution is brilliant. I'm sucker for the angst, pining & tension between main characters. So there's no surprise why I picked up this book because it's up with my ally✔

I can definitely say that I'm lookin forward to any books by this author♥ I'm excited to read more✓

✓Angst

✓Sexual tension

✓Great main characters

“I’m going to haunt her like she’s haunted me all these years. I’m going to change the look in those violet eyes in my nightmares from triumph to fear.”

“He’s standing up there like a curse from my past. All sharp lines, styled hair and piercing eyes. He’s staring into my soul,”

"She looked so alone when I walked into the courtroom. I saw her sitting by herself with just her lawyer and all the empty benches behind her. My dad’s side was packed with people, of course. My heart ached for her. She must feel so alone."

Mascen Wade, star pitcher of the Aldridge University baseball team, is a lot of things.

Rich.
Hotter than sin.
The campus’s reigning bad boy.

We knew each other once upon a time, but even if I’m named after a princess, it doesn’t mean my life is a fairytale.

My plan is to keep my head down, get my degree, and leave this town.

But the moment Mascen Wade recognizes me all my carefully laid plans come crumbling down. He’s decided he wants to make my life a living hell. But I’m not so easy to push around and won’t put up with his bully playground antics. Too bad for me I’ve never been able to resist him.
