Blurb

I didn't ask for the hand life dealt me.
I didn't ask for my mom to die, leaving me alone in the world.
I didn't ask for my estranged aunt to take me in, thrusting me into the lions den.
I certainly didn't ask to be tossed into Brighton Academy.
Yet, here I am.
They think I want their money, but that couldn't be further from the truth.
They think they know who I am, but they are wrong.
They think they can run me out of this town, but you can't scare someone who has nothing to lose. They underestimate me, but who am I to walk away from a good fight?



REVIEW

Sage Miller she is alone after losing her only relative. Only to discover that she has an aunt and wants her to come live with her. Sage is leery and its hard to trust anyone.

Brighton Academy is tough and not for the week, However Sage is one tough cookie and she knows she candle handle anything someone throws at her.

Reed Yates, he is the king of the academy. He is also snobby and a bully. When he meets Sage he knows she is not like the other girls from around there. He must try to find a way to win her over.

I like the story. It was angsty, interesting and had some drama. Sage is a survivor, she is a strong young woman who has dealt with a lot of grown up things while trying to discover herself and navigate through a new school and an aunt she never knew. I like that Reed although is hard to like at first is just as strong and can lend her his support. These two were great together one they finally overcome some things. A hit for me!

Excerpt

“Reed,” I warn.
“Yes?” His voice is tinged with humor.
“I think your pancakes are burning.” 
“That's okay. I made plenty, and I quite like where I am.” He laughs while moving a tiny bit closer, his chest flush with my back as he trails his hands softly down my sides.
“Are you excited to see me, Reed?” I tease while trying to cover up how turned on I am.
“It’s those thigh-high socks. Who knew they could be so sexy?” he teases right back.
“Reed? We’re not doing this,” I warn.
“We will, just not today. But you better get used to the idea of us, Sage, because we’re going to happen,” he states before kissing my neck. He pushes off me and goes back to the pancakes.
