My words to Trent, one of the Kings of Hawk Academy.
I was offered the chance to be part of their ritual.
Old rules.
Old traditions.
Old building.
Old money.
But all of this was new to me. I wasn’t one of them. I wasn’t rich or privileged, and I was far from arrogant.
The Kings, both Trent and James, were the most gorgeous but dangerously cruelest guys that I’d ever met. They expected me to fall in line and fade away as if their sky blue eyes would brainwash me as they continued to torture me.
I was the new girl, but I was no princess.
They may be the Kings of Hawk Academy, but when I find out their secrets, I’m going to bring them and these old walls tumbling down.

Bad Intentions (Kings of Hawk Academy #1) Reviews

This was my first book by Peitho and it was definitely and interesting read. Even now that I am trying to write up my review, my brain is going everywhere and I am struggling to figure out what to say that captures my reaction to the book without spilling the twists of the plot.
Vicki lives with her mother and step father until an accident happens and her mother passes away. At the will reading Vicki finds out that not only did her step father drain all the accounts and disappeared but she is supposed to uproot her life in Utah to move to a top notch boarding school in Massachusetts. She is instantly bullied by some of the pretty, popular, rich kids and she struggles to make friends, in fact the only person she seems to be able to talk with at all is Mr. Hawk (AKA the headmaster or principal of the school). When the bullying gets to be to much she is ready to pack her bags and head home, but now that shes an orphan she has nowhere to go. Mr. Hawk doesn't want her to leave, he wants to push her to stay and when he lets it slip that he knows her father, as in present tense, she has to stay at the school to find out what he knows. When she is give a opportunity to put an end to the bullying for the rest of the year she jumps all over it but will cost be to much?
I will say this about the story, once you get to the academy the story is freaking good, like I couldn't turn the pages fast enough. The time leading up to the academy was a little slower paced and I almost thought I had the wrong book but I am so glad that I stuck it out. The plot itself was good and twisted, there were a few major twists I saw coming and I few that blew me out of the water. I felt terrible for Vicki, especially her first day at the school and how horrible it must have been. Not only is she forced to attend a school across the country but she can't even figure out how her mother set this up.
I'm not gonna lie though... Mr. Hawk sounds HOT as all get out! He seemed to genuinely care about what was going on with Vicki and he tried to help her where he could, like removing her from the dorm room she was supposed to share with one of her bullies. James and Trent Hawk A.K.A the kings of the school left me a little confused but also excited to see what comes next. I can't really talk about them with out spoiling the plot but they are Mr. Hawk's step sons and they have the most power over the student body when it comes to who is bullied and who isn't. I believe the next book will be Trent's and I can't wait.
I do recommend this book but I caution you to keep in mind that it is a darker story and it does start off a little slow but it's worth the read!

All the potential in the world, the developing storyline was interesting and had the makes of a wonderful novel; however, I never could become engaged with my attention fully invested. I will definitely have to give this story another try later on.

I really, REALLY wanted to like this book. I made it half way and skimmed through the rest. I just felt like it was slow and kept on with the same issue for the first bit.

First book to be read by the author Sarwah Creed. I'm sorry this was just awful. Vicki loses her mom and found out the guy who her mom was dating and who molested her took her mom's money and she's left completely broke. Just to find out that her mom wants her to go to a fancy school ( we still don't know how it was paid for). Once she gets there she's bullied for no reason, she doesn't put up a fight, the principal knows who her real dad is, but yet so creepy and cryptic. So in order for the bullying to stop she has to be chosen to be initiated. Of course she wins. Just to have sex ( lose her virginity) with two people she doesn't even really know!! Just to find out they're her siblings!! I'm shocked I finished it, I don't even know if I want to read the second book.

Fantastically gripping read, dark and twisted, great storyline with events getting worse as the story progresses for the female lead character but what a twisted cliffhanger, a little different to what I am used to reading by Sarwah Creed, however excellent as I have come to expect. Very well written and the characters were amazing throughout, filled with dark events, bullying, hopeless, but also mystery, intrigue and a hot sexy scene just before a twist and cliffhanger ending. I cannot wait for what comes next in this series, really looking forward to reading book two.

Good book
This book gives you alot of back story in the first lot of chapters. Which is filled with sad outcomes but gives you more understanding about who Vicki is. From here she is left with no other option but to go to the academy her mum set up for her to attend.
When she arrives she is bullied as soon as she walks in the door. Which leads to her wanting to leave but with the help of Mr Hawk she stays. To be taken on a mad ride of twists and turns to end on a crazy discovery at the wrong time to leave you hanging needing the next book -
Sarwah Creed did a great job on this story, it was a strong start to the series. The plot was dark and filled with many emotions. The characters were strong, the story was well written. Vicki's journey was an emotional rollercoaster, she has been through so much, she was a fighter though.
This was a great story, looking forward to reading more.
Thanks, Sarwah Creed. Great work :) -
