Publisher's summary

Octavia Royal, the nation's princess.

More like, Octavia Royal, my life is a big hot mess.

My father’s death has me back in my hometown, and nothing is as I remember.

Echoes Cove Prep is a place where dreams go to die. Where everyone wants to be a mean girl, no matter what they sacrifice, and the three boys who were once my saviors run the place. Only now they’re my worst nightmare.

There’s something sinister writhing beneath the surface of Echoes Cove. Tangled up in the web of deadly secrets, a wicked game of survival, these people are about to learn...the venom that runs through this town runs through my veins, too….

And I’m not going anywhere.

This series is a dark new-adult contemporary romance with off-the-charts angst, enemies-to-lovers themes, some scenes of bullying, along with four hot guys and one girl. The book contains sexual scenes, mature language, and some violence. Please take note of the content warnings included in the book, because this book is dark. A full list of trigger warnings can be found.

Enjoy the complete series!

Tormented Royal

I got drawn into the book fast. Octavia never planned on going back to her hometown. With her father's death, she had to, though.

The title says it all…Tormented Royal

Definitely a darker story. I almost stopped listening since a few things in here are not my cup of tea. But all of a sudden I start to see a mystery coming out. Bits and pieces of Information are given to Octavia and us by proxy. Now I am incessantly trying to figure out WHAT is going in in this town!

I easily was drawn into the life of Octavia. I really felt for her and hated those boys and her cousin. Some of that changed as the story moved along and I got a few answers. Thank goodness Octavia seems strong and she does have incentive to just not run away.

I did listen to this on audio. This one has the luck of quite a few narrators portraying the characters. Each one did an amazing job getting me to understand and feel for their character. Well done! Next Please!

Amazing

I Love the beginning of this series. After a tragic event Octavia returns to echos cove where she was born . Where she had a relationship with the men who are now wanting to get rid of her. Not only that but she finds herself being stalked and almost assaulted . This book was just brilliant can’t wait for the next one. The narrators did an amazing job portraying the characters.

Love ot!

I can't tell you how much I enjoy this series. I read it first and decided that do a reread this week. The MFC has so much strength trying to deal with everything going on. I do think she should have punched other people more cuz there was a handful that really needed it. I would recommend this if you are ok with the TW and bully mafia Academy setting.

Good start

I enjoyed this book good start to a new series good story I liked the characters but also hated some of them it's a bully so normally you aren't supposed to like the guys at first.
All the narrators did a great job they really made the characters come alive, I can't wait to hear the rest of the series. This was my first book by this author I will definitely be checking out more of her books

🔥 Reverse Harem Bully High School Dark Romance

This is the first book I've read by this author. I'm glad I found it. It is the first book of four, that must be read in order. This is a high school, bully, dark romance, reverse harem, and romantic suspense. Octavia is strong but that's being put to the test when she returns to Echoes Cove. Octavia Royal left five years earlier, with her father, Stone. Stone was a famous rock star. Now, her father is dead and there are stipulations for Octavia to remain in Echoes Cove. The boys who were her best friends, Lincoln, East, Finley, and Maverick, now are bullying Octavia to run her off. Octavia is strong but the things they do still get to her, of course. Each boy still represents something to Octavia. The boys get the whole school, including Octavia's cousin to bully her. There are a lot of dark secrets going on in this town. No one is forthcoming with the secrets. There is a secret society controlling things, the Knight's Society. Olivia also has a creepy stalker. I think there are a lot of secrets behind Stone's death. The bright spot is Octavia's best friend, Indie. I'm looking forward to the next books and figuring everything out. I hope Octavia and the boys can end up together and safe.

I received a free copy of this book and voluntarily left this review.

The Narration YES PLEASE !!!!!!!!!!!!

The narration of this story is amazing!!!! Each character is brought to life by their respective narrator and having the different voices for the different guys makes it so much better for me. This is 100% a DARK BULLY romance because they do some messed up stuff to the FMC, but this is my jam so I'm into it. The author does a great job building up the story and keeping you wanting more. Pre-warning though huge cliffhanger at the end but it is worth it to keep with the series.
