BLURB:
Every high school has a bully who has gone unpunished.
Walking the halls of my high school after two decades reminds me why I’ve blocked those years from my memory. The walls hold secrets but perhaps none as potent as the woods behind the school where a life ended too soon.
I wasn’t able to make a difference then. But I’m not a frightened kid anymore. Bullies no longer scare me. It’s time to deliver long overdue consequences to those who have never been held accountable for their actions.
With my pack of wolf dogs and this blindingly bright fake boyfriend at my side, nothing can go wrong.
REVIEW:
Oh boy, Rhodes with his seven wolf dogs, they are sweet but terrifying beauties.
Rhodes knows how to keep his pack happy.
Rhodes needs a plus one for a high school reunion. Through the Heart2heart app, he meets Bennet. Bennet will be his fake boyfriend.
Bennet is a shining bright light. Meeting Rhodes and his impressive pack was a delight, Bennet was head over heels with them, and vice versa, and I think Rhodes too (with Bennet)
Bennet’s life is so different from Rhodes’. The Van Doren’s have private planes, luxury, and big money. Rhodes is so far out of Bennet’s league.
Rhodes would never go back, but here he is. The high school walls have secrets. The woods have secrets. Secrets Rhodes has put behind him, although he never forgot.
Rhodes has a plan, revenge on the bad guys, the bullies.
Bennet is the perfect guy for Rhodes. He isn’t shocked when Rhodes tells him what he did for a living. I’m not going to spoil, but you have to read this story! It’s sooo good.
Gosh, I adored this story, it had everything, sweetness, hot encounters, humor, seriousness, angst, some blood, and a lot of feelings. It’s altogether a well-written, super entertaining story!
