This book is everything. EVERY SINGLE THING. If you love reverse harem and bully romances that teeter on the dark side of things, this book is for you. I am chomping at the bit for book 2! Like seriously. This book is definitely in my top 5 books of 2020! Now for my review:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I read the blurb but still had no idea what I was getting into with this book. It&#8217;s a bully reverse harem but oh so much more than that too. I was trying to predict through the whole thing. I wanted to know why the boys were bullies. I wanted to know why Colton was the way that she was. I wanted to know everything. There are five books in this series and I have a feeling that we won&#8217;t know every thing until the very last book. I don&#8217;t want to give too much away but if you love the bully trope and reverse harem trope, you have to read this book. This is by far CL&#8217;s best writing to date. I&#8217;m so proud of her.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This book deals with secrets, lust, passion, love, betrayal, heartache and more. So so much more. Every new character mentioned, I wasn&#8217;t sure if I could trust. Even after finishing the book, I don&#8217;t think I can trust anyone. Except for Colt.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Bottom line: Do not trust anyone.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Now live! \u2192&nbsp;<a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/l.facebook.com\/l.php?u=https%3A%2F%2Fbooks2read.com%2Fhlac%3Ffbclid%3DIwAR3A3WOihoam_ys9-zrgSR4xLgyWdX29v8hyKSLd5kdscZKBys-xt9fOeyE&amp;h=AT0BbVyiICM5rg7L4pMEWoMUAU6rzvxrhJ0kJeWVB-vQQoqAl7S2oMYac09pdqGa9ksK45JNPTzhdXKUN_v58cDGLieFJF0DUTRiSx3IeYi0E1gkBuTwQ6SYKyZYUiE2Vis&amp;__tn__=-UK-R&amp;c[0]=AT09gKb3EOf7V0ZzDRdTQaLLE1Isj9vf8RY7uBmicSdXTiwBN-eM8V2Fn-y04GeQ3uwCL5BrSR_aWMQdDxwFVelec97Rt7aDN7K1nxB73WpLLxpkieGmPJZ4Xan0L05TdOWoc1LLwWLTH45-hZTDSb5XTu_9sbWNzQ\" target=\"_blank\">https:\/\/books2read.com\/hlac<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Add HLaC to your TBR&nbsp;\u2192&nbsp;<a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/bit.ly\/hlacclm?fbclid=IwAR2gU4ICOXHqQdGZ-VWXRJWQdrA7OsKRayjmIX4-QC6BmhpfQSVGDOmKMiA\" target=\"_blank\">http:\/\/bit.ly\/hlacclm<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"474\" height=\"322\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/twinsietalk.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/118780002_3050374298406186_9083278798297399789_o.jpg?resize=474%2C322\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-25896\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/twinsietalk.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/118780002_3050374298406186_9083278798297399789_o.jpg?resize=1024%2C696 1024w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/twinsietalk.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/118780002_3050374298406186_9083278798297399789_o.jpg?resize=300%2C204 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/twinsietalk.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/118780002_3050374298406186_9083278798297399789_o.jpg?resize=768%2C522 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/twinsietalk.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/118780002_3050374298406186_9083278798297399789_o.jpg?resize=1536%2C1045 1536w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/twinsietalk.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/118780002_3050374298406186_9083278798297399789_o.jpg?w=1985 1985w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/twinsietalk.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/118780002_3050374298406186_9083278798297399789_o.jpg?w=948 948w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/twinsietalk.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/118780002_3050374298406186_9083278798297399789_o.jpg?w=1422 1422w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 474px) 100vw, 474px\" \/><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Twinsie Jo&#8217;s Review: I seriously don&#8217;t even know where to begin with this review.
