Enjoyed it much more than expected.

Bully romance isn’t a trope I’ve listened too before I’ve always bypassed them due to my hatred of bullies.
I am so glad I listened as it didn’t trigger my anger as I’d expected it would.
The storyline was great and the characters drew me in I couldn’t stop listening and devoured it all in one sitting.
Veronica Eden is another new author to me along with both narrators who did an excellent job.

Loved it!

This is my first book by Veronica Eden and I’m not disappointed! I’m a huge fan of the bully trope. Wicked Saint was awesome!

Lucas is an ahole. Even though he has feelings for Gemma, he doesn’t want to show them in public. He constantly hurting her and then will be sweet. Poor Gemma must have whiplash. Lol. But even as much as Gemma takes it, she still fights back, which I love.

Stephanie Rose & Alan Carlson both did fantastic jobs narrating. Instant fan!

love bully romances

I thoroughly enjoyed listening to this book. The narration was amazing and made the story so much better for me. The story was written well and the characters were so very real. The bully trope is one of my favorites right now and this one had it's own path. Highly likeable. I will definitely be listening to this again.

Great Story & Narration🎧 Captivating & Intense!

This is my first book written by Veronica Eden and consider me wowed, she nails the bully romance genre with this dark and twisted story, an awesome and intense at times, enemies to lovers romance. It is high in angst and may take you out of your comfort times but it is so worth the ride. The characters are complex and nicely developed, Gemma and her brother transferred to their third school, she plans on keeping to herself and staying under the radar. But that plan goes awry when she goes to pick up her twin brother at party hosted by the most popular boy in the school. Lucas, the schools football star and the school is his kingdom. When the new girl strikes his fancy it is game on and she becomes his new challenge and target. I adored Gemma, her strength and determination to stand up to the bullying and handle it on her own. At the start of the book I had mixed feelings for Lucas and his cohorts but when he lifts his facade and reveals his true self I really liked him and found him intriguing. Same with some of his friends. I loved how everything plays out in the book, the story is cleverly plotted and there is never a dull moment. I found this book to be captivating from start to end, it is the type of book once you pick up you can not put down because you need to know what happens next. Veronica Eden, thank you for this great story and the emotional rollercoaster ride.

Stephanie Rose and Alan Carlson are talented narrators and voice artists. They were perfectly casted to bring these characters to life, they give each their own voice and personality, as well as heart and attitude. They do an awesome job portraying each character, playing each role with perfection sounding just as I picture them to sound. They are entertaining storytellers and a pleasure to listen to. Thank you for this great listen🎧

good story. very good narration.

This was a good listen but I found the characters to be far too frustrating at times. I did like that the story had a complete story arc and I wasn't left with any questions. The narration was really good. Both narrators delivered a strong performance and played each character really well.

Good book, but....

I haven't finished this book yet because I really don't like the female narrator. She sounds as if she has a cold. Her voice is groggy like a smokers and would be better suited for a book with an older female character, not a younger one. Story so far...it is good. The male narrator is great.

Young adult romance

I enjoyed this book, which is the first book I've read by Veronica Eden. Happily, my high school experience wasn't like this! Gemma, a new student, is picked on by Lucas, more as a reflection of how much he really likes her and wants her. (kind of the high school version of pulling on pigtails just much meaner). It obviously doesn't work initially in part because of Gemma's past and in part because she's actually a really strong character, especially for a high school student. I enjoyed listening to her and Lucas banter. Also, what was wonderful was when Gemma and Lucas were alone. The premise is that Lucas may be the king of the school and a football star but more importantly, he wants more- he wants to be his real self and being with Gemma encourages that. Those scenes were well done and really elevated the characters, even as Lucas continued to be a bit two faced to promote a certain type of image to the school. I look at his behavior as actually quite consistent with their age. Overall, I really found myself immersed in this world and look forward to the next books in the series.

I also had the opportunity to listen to the audiobook, which was narrated by Stephanie Rose and Alan Carlson. These are new narrators to me and they did really well. This was done as a duet which was fantastic- it really immersed me into the story as if it was a play- I think that while the book was good, the narration elevated it to another level!

Lucas and Gemma

Wow I really love bully romance lately. This is so well written and provides a wide range of feelings. The angst was just right. Gemma is a strong willed young woman and I really enjoyed seeing how she dealt with Lucas and all his friends. Lucas was definitely a guy to hate but he redeemed himself and the HEA was perfect for this couple.

I was surprised to hear that it was duet and absolutely loved it. I’m new to Stephanie Rose and Alan Carlson so will need to see what else they have done ♥️

I’m also new to this author and can’t wait for the next book of what I believe is going to be an awesome series.
