After spending so much energy trying to protect my secret, I failed to realize it’s not the past I need to fear—It’s my future that’s at stake.
I’ve finally found someone who doesn’t judge me for my sins and stays by my side while I trudge through the shadowy corners of my past.
The only problem is, his friends have other plans.
One watches me day and night—painting a picture of a disturbed life together.
And the other is hanging my secret over my head as leverage to aid in his own scheme.
But everyone has a weakness, and that weakness will be mine.
There once was a sicko
who watched me day and night.
His invisible leash,
never let me out of his sight.
His friends were unlike him,
one a monster I feared.
The other bled crimson,
with a heart that was pure.
You Will Bow is book two in the Wicked Boys of BCU Series. It is highly encouraged to start with book one, We Will Reign. Please note, this is a dark college romance and a why choose series, meaning the female character has multiple love interests over the course of the three books.
You Will Bow (Wicked Boys of BCU #2) Reviews
-
Manipulating Riley to test his theories and fit his needs, Lev unexpectedly begins to elicit feelings he hasn’t had since before tragedy befell his family.
This uncharacteristic behavior leaves Ridge and Maddox wary of Riley’s safety. While their concern is not unfounded, it’s not Lev they should fear.
This installment was heart pounding! For the first half, my heart was pitter pattering from all. the. steam. The second half, my nerves were running riot from all revelations.
I am loving this series and will be on the edge of my seat until They Will Fall is in my hands.

Rachel never disappoints. She left me speechless. I devoured this book in one sitting. If you love secrets, angst, betrayals, mystery, plot twist and turned up hot as hell spice.It’s all in this book. You definitely will need to read the first book before reading this one. *READ TRIGGER WARNINGS * This is the second book in this series.
We get to know Lev and I FREAKING LOVE HIM. He will pull at your heartstrings learning more about what he has been through and why he acts the way he does.
Ridge is my #1 . I love that we get to see another side to him. He’s the protector of all of them. We saw his darkness in the first book. Now we see another layer of him. Ridge is very passionate, psycho, and sensitive. He will do anything for Riley’s happiness.
Maddox is struggling to find his balance. He’s trying to figure out his own identity and not be influenced by his father’s thoughts or the Blue Bloods way. Then he has a whole new relationship to work on with Riley and coping with the fact that there’s two others involved.
Riley struggles to figure out her own happiness and coming to terms with her connection with each of the guys.
I cannot wait for the next book. I need it like now. That cliffhanger was… WOW.
“ You’re too intense, Ridge.” “Love is intense.”
“You never have to be afraid, Angel. It’s my job to carry the weight of your fears. I’d never let anyone hurt you. Do you understand that?”
Rachel, this book is superb 🤌🏼🖤🫶🏼 Thank you for the ARC and Grey Promo -
Wow. I ate this book alive today. 🤣 I really loved the first one in this series, but book 2 was even better. I loved her relationships with all of the guys. The plot twists… I was so shocked and I think that’s what really did it for me. My mind was seriously blown. I can’t wait for the next one! Dying to know how this wraps up. -
I enjoyed this story! This is book 2 in the series, and it dives more into Riley's relationship with Ridge, Maddox & Lev. As well as their missions.
The plot has a few twists and turns, which I loved. The chemistry between Riley and her men is so good. I love Lev and his blunt attitude towards everything and everyone around him, while also learning more about his story. I'm falling for Ridge even more in this one 🖤
Can't wait to read the next book. -
The twists and turns this book series has keeps you on your toes. I loved getting to know more about Lev and can't wait for the series to continue!!

This book has me under it's spell. You Will Bow by Rachel Leigh was heart-pounding, deviously dirty and full of messy feels. This new adult, enemies to lovers , why choose , dark romantic suspense was perfection. Lev, Maddox and Ridge would make you question your sanity because these boys take the role jealous possessive alpha antiheroes to next level. And Riley amazed me with her sweet but fierce heart. Murder,madness and mayhem are in Boulder Cove Academy and I cannot wait to see where this rollercoaster takes me next.
The second book of the series is concentrating on our psycho bad boy aka Lev and how Riley is affecting his cold dead heart. The trauma has killed all his emotions and the only thing he feels is loyalty to his best friends, Maddox and Ridge. And that's why he hate Riley because Ridge is obsessed with her and Maddox is enticed by her. He hates the idea of a girl creating a division but she also awakens something in him. He doesn't feel numb when he is torturing her or blackmailing her! The passion is there but he is also starting to feel possessive and protective of her and I AM HERE FOR ALL THE MESSY FEELS. Lev sure takes it to uncomfortable extremity and Riley finds out she is more deviant than she knew. Ridge and Maddox are almost at a sort of acceptance that Riley won't choose only one of them but it didn't come without intense confrontations, complex encounters, some heartbreaking scenes..Ridge is still the stalker we have to love and Maddox just melts my heart. And these boys form a strong unit so they do realise why Lev needs Riley. This book is super hot...panty melting, kindle melting, super kinky kind of hot. They are smoking hot together but it's so much more..they are all soulmates.
But the danger is there. The Society isn't stopping till they find out the truths about the Governor's death. Someone is trying to frame Riley for the series of murders occurring in campus. The boys all have blood in their hands and they have to save Riley. The action and the twists in this story is freaking amazing and I cannot wait for the third and final book.
I reviewed an early copy voluntarily -
“𝐅𝐨𝐫 𝐰𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐢𝐭’𝐬 𝐰𝐨𝐫𝐭𝐡, 𝐢𝐟 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐜𝐨𝐮𝐥𝐝 𝐬𝐞𝐞 𝐲𝐨𝐮𝐫𝐬𝐞𝐥𝐟 𝐭𝐡𝐫𝐨𝐮𝐠𝐡 𝐦𝐲 𝐞𝐲𝐞𝐬, 𝐲𝐨𝐮’𝐝 𝐤𝐧𝐨𝐰 𝐰𝐡𝐲 𝐈 𝐜𝐡𝐨𝐬𝐞 𝐲𝐨𝐮. 𝐈𝐭 𝐰𝐚𝐬 𝐚𝐥𝐰𝐚𝐲𝐬 𝐲𝐨𝐮. 𝐎𝐧𝐥𝐲 𝐲𝐨𝐮.”
This is the second book in the Wicked Boys of BCU series and picks right back up where we left from book 1, after a heartbreaking prologue.
These boys are FAMILY and nothing comes between them, but with Riley in the mix, the cracks sure are starting to show. In my review of the first book I wasn't top sure on Riley, but again she really is starting to stand up for herself where Ridge, Maddox and Lev are concerned and she is still slowly growing on me.
Ridge, my binocular wielding little psychopath still has my heart, he is in it for Riley and Riley alone.
Lev is still such an enigma, an I really still wish we knew more about him, he's still so intriguing and still my #1, boy that man's gonna have some grovelling to do.
Maddox is honestly my least fave, but I just find him quite bland, and isn't 'bad boy' enough for me. I like what I like, I'm sorry and walking red flags are it for me.
Some of the revelations in this book had gasping, and the cliffhanger left me reeling. I can't wait to be back at BCU one final time to see how this all goes down. -
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️💫/5 🌶️🌶️🌶️/5
Once again, Rachel has pulled me into a world of madness and made me fall in love with men that are walking red flags! What else could we expect from these wicked boys 😉
I enjoyed the character development that we got in this book in regards to Riley and Ridge’s relationship. Seeing Riley let all of Ridge’s possessiveness in and seeing it for its goodness and love was cute! She even started to get possessive! I also really liked getting to know what Lev is all about. He has some trauma to work through and goes about things in an unsavoury way sometimes, but he’s 🥵. Ridge and Lev are the last men you should want and yet here I am! 😂
The guy you should want is probably Maddox, who is sweet and attentive and a normal amount of protective but yet I haven’t found a pull to him yet. The ending of this book however gave you things to think about when it came to two of these men and I don’t know how I’m feeling 😢 (SPOILER: I’m crushed!) I’m hoping it’s not all as it seems!
This is book 2 in a 3 book, why choose series called Wicked Boys of BCU. I recommend reading the Bastards of Boulder Cove series first! -
I enjoyed book one but two was even better. Book two leaves us reeling with unexpected revelations and conspiracy. These boys have been trying to save Riley from an inquiry with the elders but all they have done is put a bigger spotlight on her. There is so much more going on here than we know.
This book focuses more on the developing relationships between Riley, Len, Maddox and Ridge. I like that this Why Choose novel is not all about instant love and sharing. The men in this story are having a hard time coming to terms with the fact they are all interested in the same girl. Each one reacts differently and has his own jealousy issues.
We also get to learn a lot more about Len and his past. Everything is connected; we just haven't seen all the pieces yet. There are so many questions left unanswered about Len's and his family. How does Maddox's dad fit into all of this? I can't wait for Book three, I really hope these Boys come out Reigning over the Elders of The Society. -
Okay, here we go again, with the sequel of BCU by Rachel Leigh. Before I started, I need to say that the first book of this series (We Will Reign) conflicted with me: I liked it but not so much… Ridge is a complete obsessive guy and, sometimes he was cute, but sometimes he was so out of his mind that hurt everyone in your way. In this book we have the other side of him and I started to like him more and more. Here we have more about Riley’s relationship between the three of them, more about Lev’s story (and I need to confess that I already liked him) and more secrets and plots that only will resolve in the third book. I really enjoyed the reading and, of course, if you like RH with possessive and obsessive guys around the FMC, this is the book for you.
-
I thought for sure I knew where this one was going. I thought I had all my ducks in a row and here comes the twist and has my jaw on the floor. What the heck?!?
I love Riley, Ridge, Lev and Maddox. The relationships are developing more and more. Lev is somewhat coming around in his own way. And the 🌶 bits are 🥵🥵🥵
There is a lot happening in this one. Players are being moved around until everything clicks into place. After the last few chapters and that end, my mind is going to be reeling until They Will Fall!! -
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ yup 10⭐️
🌶️🌶️
I fucking love this series
Emotional roller coaster, so much going on….
Lev show us a new side of him I’m in love..
Finally some group activity 😁😁😁
♥️Check trigger warnings♥️ -
Not as thrilled with this book as the last one, the storyline was stagnant until about the last 10% of the book. The other 90% was all about the FMC building relationships with the guys and frankly got a bit boring. I love romance novels but I prefer a good story with a side of steamy romance and this started out as a good crime/mystery/bully/university RH and I expected that to continue into the second book, and it did I just had to wait until the last couple of chapters for the storyline to progress.
Also, I'm not a fan of one of the guy's Lev, granted we get a bit more insight into why he acts the way he does but those reasons aren't fully reviled until that last 10% of the book and I'm not sure if it excuses the shit he pulled.
This book ended in a major Cliffhanger (no surprise there) and while I want to know what happens I'm also not sure if I really want to read the third book 🤷♀️ -
Riley, Lev, Maddox and Ridges story continues straight from where book 1 finished. If you haven’t read that, I recommend you read that first.
In this book, we learnt more about Lev - I would have liked a bit more background on him and this story to be more focussed on him instead of all three guys but I personally think this story was brilliant either way. We got a taste of Ridge’s darkness in book one and I think it’s safe to say, these guys are best friends and have been for a long time for a reason. The same darkness is within them all. And Riley.
The relationship between Riley and her guys is still a slow burn (I’m not a fan of slow burns but I definitely approve of this one) but their relationship is definitely strengthening day by day. The bond the boys have between each other is admirable, they are first and foremost brothers but they will make sure nothing harms Riley and she is their main priority. Deep down, I think Riley is just as protective of them as they are her.
I adore Riley, she is one of my favourite female characters written and the more of her story we get, the more I fall in love with her. Again, if you aren’t familiar to the bastards of boulder cover series where we are first introduced to Riley, I recommend that highly as Scar and her guys, also make appearances within this series too.
I really enjoy the story line of this series - I think it’s easy to get gripped into, I have devoured both books as soon as I have started them. Rachel definitely knows how to write unhinged men but she also knows how the write the most unique, caring, passionate alongside the psycho.
This second instalment of the series does end in a cliffhanger and for those who know me, cliff hangers make me want to sit in the corner of the room and rock back and forth until the next story comes out so yeah, that’s exactly what I’m going to do. I think this ending has set up perfectly for the final book, focusing on Maddox.
I have completely fallen in love with Ridge, Lev and Maddox (I was already in love with Riley, obviously) and I’m excited to see how this story has finished. -
No one will ever know how much I loved this. No one will know the darkness inside me, or that I am so fucking aroused by this man right now that I’d do just about anything to have him get me off.
OMG! This book was a wild ride. It is an easy one-sitting read. I would not have put it down if sleeping and adulting hadn’t been necessary. The steam is hotter. The secrets are darker. And Riley remains in the crosshairs of The Society. Luckily, she has Ridge, Maddox, and, surprisingly, Lev there to watch her back.
We knew from the ending of We Will Reign that Lev would be playing a bigger role in this book and Riley’s life, and boy, did he come in hot! The book starts off with his backstory. It is absolutely heartbreaking and did shed some light on his current behavior, even if it doesn’t absolve him of all guilt. Getting that glimpse into his past softened his edges and made him easier to love.
Hands down, Lev overtook Ridge as the top billing of the guys. I could have had the entire book in his POV and been 100% happy. I loved his darkness and obsession with how Riley made him feel. I am all about his love language of degradation.
The steam has been ramped up significantly in You Will Bow. Riley is no longer the blushing virgin. Ridge unleashed a vixen when he took her on that stage. She just needs the guys to learn to share so she can get all her itches scratched. Several kinks are unlocked once Lev comes out to play. Interactions are MF with some MFM sharing.
The uncovered secrets and plot twists were unreal, especially at the end. I cannot believe we were left hanging like that! After an ending like that, I will require the next book immediately.

Book Type/Ending: Book Two in series Wicked Boys of BCU, Cliffhanger -
This is the second book in this series Wicked Boys of BCU #1 and I a dark romance reverse harem romance. This book is full of secrets, twists, shocks and suspense that will keep you hooked. This book ends of a cliffhanger that will have you desperate for the next book in this series.
Riley and her guys Lev, Maddox and Ridges pick right up from where book 1 finished and the relationship between them all is developing more by the day. Riley is trying to navigate her feelings for each of the guys and I love that she is also embracing her own dark side.This is a very slow burn relationship but their chemistry is so strong and the spice between them all is H.O.T.
Each of these guys are different in their own way. Lev is crazy. Mad has a very dark side to him and Ridge is so over protective that I love it. There are so many secrets that you won't know what is on to happen.
Rachel really does know how to bring a harem to life.'Phew'.
I love the character development in this book and how This author brought them to life. Riley is such an awesome chic and I love this story line it will keep you captivated throughout. This book will have your emotions all over the place and I love how we get to know way more of Lev in this book.
If you love dark and steamy this is for you because the way that this author writes is gripping with the nail biting suspense, angst, drama, spice, stalker romance.
This book captivated me from the very beginning and I couldn't stop turning the pages and I love that we got alittle Scar too.
We first meet Riley in the BOBC and I highly recommend that you start with that series first, but definitely read We Will Reign first which is book 1 in this series .

LEV, LEV, LEV!!! Listen. Rachel Leigh will now be known as the cliffhanger queen. I will absolutely bow down at your feet !
Picking up where “We Will Reign” left off, I had a strong distaste for Lev…but as the story continues…I started to see a more human side of him…and just like with Riley, Lev started to grow on me. The more I learned about him, the more I wanted to help him break down his walls.
This book had SO MANY SURPRISES! First of all…MADDOX…that’s all I’ll say. MADDOX…he’s a whole new man in this book…
RIDGE…my heart still belongs to this little obsessive stalker. And the fact that Riley is FINALLY acknowledging her feelings for him had me screaming. I’m so happy. This boy deserves so much love.
The mysteries surrounding the secret society within this story keep piling up and at the end , all of their lives are on the line. Also..Lev…please don’t make me hate you again…right now you are on thin ice, mister!
This book was the perfect combo of spice, thrilling plot, mystery and intrigue! -
Thanks so much for the ARC, Rachel. I will never get tired of her writing. TBH.
Please read TW/CW. This book IS NOT for the faint of heart, but would highly recommend it to the lovers of Bully Why Choose Romance. With me reading the second book, ahh all I can say i like this series more!
Holy fucking shirt balls. What the hell was that?! We get to follow where we left off with Riley and unhinged men Ridge, Maddox, and Lev. Oh em gee. I couldn't find a favorite, but we get to see a different side of the guys. Plus, more screen time for the meanest and unhinged one of them all.
Damn, I gasped and had to google Maglite, and I was LIKE holy shit! Aside from the spice amping up, the plot thickens. I just don't know who to trust anymore, especially the main characters.
Ridge - the Passionate jealous stalker bf
Maddox - the Golden Retriever
Lev- The most meanest one of them all - the degradation was Perfection
I seriously love Rachel's writing. It just keeps me intrigued and my attention going. I need more. Ahhh yes, there are group scenes, and it's Dark and Delish! But for me, Lev is the ONE that made me drop my jaw. Can't wait for book 3!
Rating 4.5/5 ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ 💫

Damn -
She’s done it again!!
I’m as obsessed with this series as Ridge is with Riley! This book have all the things I love in a dark why choose romance. There is spice- spicy spicy, this group is melt your kindle hot. There is drama, twist and turns, questions and revelations. In addition there is some of the best character and relationship development I’ve read in some time.
This author has done another amazing job creating a world that sucks you in! That cliffy has me eager for book three. -
I am so invested in this story. I love how it’s full of twist and turns and how they just keep coming and never stop. I like it when books keep me on my toes and I don’t know what will happen next and this series is really doing that for me. I just want to keep reading it to see what will happen next and thats a very good thing in my book.
I’m also really enjoying how the romantic elements are going in the one, it’s super fun and hot to follow along and i’m here for the ride. -
Somebody's Watching Me
Picking up where Book 1 leaves off with Riley at Lev's mercy. I've given the FMC a chance but I h8tes the way she is putting a wedge between Maddox Ridge and Lev. With her name being tied to so many murders and scandals her sole focus should be on clearing her name and not bed hopping.
Tension is thick between Maddox, Ridge and Lev. In this book they were constantly at each other's throat and what's the center of their disagreements? Riley. Instead of being upfront about what's going on, Riley is not only bouncing between Maddox and Ridge, hurting their feelings and playing with their emotions, she's secretly seeing Lev on the side.
Lev is cruel and manipulative. He has Riley over a barrel and through blackmail he is able to have his way with her and being as weak, needy and pathetic as she is; Riley let's him. Instead of speaking up and confiding in the men who has her back Riley makes things worse with all of her secrets.
With everything going on with the Guardians and the Society the guys are missing a key element in all of this scandal. Secrets, Betrayal and Manipulation is running high but as proficient as the guys are in erasing their tracks; someone is definitely on their trail uncovering everything tying ever nefarious and malicious deed back to Riley.
A decision has been made and the Elders of the Society have officially stepped in and Riley's fate is to be determined. Will Maddox, Ridge and Lev find the person behind these atrocities or will they continue to allow the wedge between them to grow and hinder any chance they have at saving Riley. -
woah!!!
This is the second book in the wicked boys of BCU trilogy following Riley, Ridge, Maddox and Lev. We get more insight into the mad man that is Lev….and there is def a soft teddy bear under that hard exterior.
There’s a lot to unpack in this book and at times it was a little overwhelming and I trust the author put it in for the plot and to all make sense in book 3. Which after that “what the what?!” Cliffhanger I’m read for book 3. -
what in the world…
Wow what an ending! And a massive cliffhanger. It was jaw dropping. I myself couldn’t believe what I was reading . I went through so many emotions that in the end I no longer despised Lev as much as in the beginning and Ridge is still my favorite. Maddox now he really surprised me. This book was crazy good! Now I definitely know the next book is going to be epic and I hope those hot spicy scenes are in it. I also hope all
Goes well for Riley , well even the boys too. I can’t wait ! -

I loved learning more about Lev in this book! And your heart will break learning about what he’s been through and why he is the way he is.
And Ridge we got a taste of his darkness in book one, but you see a whole new level in this book! Safe to say that the darkness is the same in all of them!
And Maddox you get to see him struggling with what he’s been taught was right and doing what is actually right for him! I definitely didn’t see him doing what he did at the end!
I cannot wait to see what these guys will do in the next book! Especially with all the secrets that they were keeping from each other! This next book will be jam packed with so much action and I am so excited!!!
But that ending!!! OMG! I’m so scared for what will happen next. I need the next book now!!!
Blurb:
My first year at college has been anything but ordinary.
After spending so much energy trying to protect my secret, I failed to realize it’s not the past I need to fear—It’s my future that’s at stake.
I’ve finally found someone who doesn’t judge me for my sins and stays by my side while I trudge through the shadowy corners of my past.
The only problem is, his friends have other plans.
One watches me day and night—painting a picture of a disturbed life together.
And the other is hanging my secret over my head as leverage to aid in his own scheme.
But everyone has a weakness, and that weakness will be mine.
There once was a sicko
who watched me day and night.
His invisible leash,
never let me out of his sight.
His friends were unlike him,
one a monster I feared.
The other bled crimson,
with a heart that was pure.
You Will Bow is book two in the Wicked Boys of BCU Series. It is highly encouraged to start with book one, We Will Reign. Please note, this is a dark college romance and a why choose series, meaning the female character has multiple love interests over the course of the three books. -
Levyyyy 🍆 listen, I just knew that man was packing 👀(yea someone had to say it😩) And have I mentioned that he’s pierced ? Goood god almighty 🥵😩
In this captivating sequel, the foreboding leverage wielded by Lev hangs ominously over Riley, ensnaring her within the enigmatic grip of blackmail.
Struggling to fathom the breadth of his emotions, he wrestles with the sudden emergence of his affection for her.
This burgeoning attachment ignites a maelstrom within him, leading to a tangled web of chaos and uncertainty. Paradoxically, he views her as the antidote to his own hollowness, a mystery that simultaneously fascinates and confounds him.
He personifies a curious blend of sadistic proclivities and insatiable monstrous cravings, yearning for Riley's defiance. Yet her presence elicits a dormant rationality and restraint within him.
Meanwhile, Riley and Maddox navigate their intricate relationship, while Ridge bides his time, longing for his own chance with her. The allure of this sequel stems from its tantalizing continuation, as the power dynamics between Riley and Lev undergo a scintillating transformation.
The intensity of this book radiates from it’s pages, enticing readers with its passionate fervor. Witnessing Maddox's emancipation from his passive demeanor, finally emerging from his self-imposed shell, was a gratifying experience.
Furthermore, Ridge's unwavering determination finds fulfillment, a culmination that brings a sense of contentment.
However, the unresolved mysteries surrounding Cade's situation leave a lingering sense of suspense, in other words: That cliffhanger was MAD DISRESPECTFUL 🥲
These unanswered questions heighten the intrigue and add an extra layer of complexity to the narrative. Personally, I reveled in this enthralling tale, eagerly anticipating the forthcoming third installment. -
Oh my gosh, the suspense is killing me. You Will Bow is another five star read set in the world of Wicked Boys of BCU . And Rachel Leigh is the queen of plot twists and cliffhangers . The secrets are piling up, the ulterior motives of so many players in the big picture are revealed one by one as danger approaches and lives are threatened. And in the middle of all this are Riley, Ridge , Madox and Lev . And as everyone points at Ridge as unhinged and Lev as psycho no one guesses that may be the same darkness is inside of Madox too . He just hides it well under the good guy persona . They are friends for a reason and they want the world of The Society to change . And they are starting small by their small circle and they are including Riley too . The relationship between Riley and the guys is progressing slowly but they still are not on the same path but are getting there. Anyway that slow burn and that insane chemistry is killing me smalls but when they are together it's explosive. Anyway I want to see how all this between them will progress and comes to the next level of spiciness. And all those secrets and mysteries , I want to see them revealed. I have some guesses about the motives of some of the involved parties but some are still to be revealed and I can't wait for this to happen. And I want to be there for it . Because that cliffhanger left me in knots. And I can't believe what Madox's secret was and his part in the current events. The next book can't come soon enough.
I received an ARC copy of this book by Grey's Promotions and the Author in exchange of an honest review. -
“When I say jump, you ask how high. When I say bow, you fucking bow.”
Ridge has a love beyond anything Riley has felt before and stalks her every waking moment.
Maddox is the ideal guy to more than a first kiss with and still holds his mystery close to his chest, that Riley is wanting to find out.
Lev the menacing one that everyone should keep away from…
Only, Lev has found out Riley's secret and she is caught within his deadly grasp.
Question is, will she bow to his command?
Or have all three of them bowing down to her?
It’s about time I prove to them, and myself, how strong I really am.
I am loving this series and this one was a dark delight!
Riley is growing as a character as she’s starting to find her way now. I like that she is starting to explore more of what she wants and you can see how this is starting to empower her.
I also love that we are digging more into the guy’s characters too, this time focusing more on Lev and how Riley is changing him. He’s character has been a mystery from the start, now he has Riley not only under his thumb and body…but she managed to get underneath his skin and touch a side of him that he thought was forgotten.
The relationships have definitely developed between all of the characters, I am loving finding out more and seeing how far this could go for all of them.
But, the story itself is constantly twisting and turning up surprises that you didn’t see coming!

Riley's first year at college couldn't be seen exactly normal. After spending too much energy trying to protect her secret, she failed to realize it wasn't the past she needed to fear but the future. She's finally found someone who doesn't judge her for her sins and stays by her side while she trudged through the shadows of her past. The problem? HIs friends have other plans. One watches her day and night and, in the process, painting a picture of a disturbed life together. The other one is hanging her secrets over her head as leverage to aid in his own scheme. But everyone has a secret, and that weakness will be hers.
"There once was a sicko who watched me day and night. HIs invisible leash, never let me out of his sight. His friends were unlike him, one a monster I feared. The other bled crimson, with a heart that was pure."
Another knockout of the park for one of my favorite authors. Please be aware that you need to read "We Will Reign" first. The build-up in intensity with each book always gets better. We learn more about the boys in this one, and there is a little something I love in each one. My emotions held on tight to the rollercoaster she created. I am definitely recommending this read. This is my honest opinion, freely given.
