Bailey is the new girl in town. New house, new school and all new people. Unfortunately for her she moved right next door to Cole who of course just happens to be super hot but also seems to loathe her for no reason at all or at least not one that she knows of. Oh and he also is the King or maybe we should call him the Alpha of Wolf Ridge High and so his word is law and what is his new law you ask? For everyone to basically treat Bailey like shit.

“I give it another month and she’ll transfer to a school where her kind belong.”

Cole wants nothing more than to make the sexy girl next door pay for what her family did and so he does anything and everything in his power to make sure she knows she doesn’t belong at Wolfe Ridge High. The problem is he can’t help his growing attraction to her and when Bailey steps in and tries to help when she should be running the other way things quickly change. All the sudden it’s like cue the super hot sex scenes. These two start walking a fine line between love and hate and to add to that there’s the whole forbidden element going on here because Cole isn’t supposed to be with Bailey. And it’s not because of what her family did to his. Oh no it’s because she’s human, and he’s well, not.

“I’m going to give it to her every way I desire. And she’s going to love taking it.”

Bully romances are a slight obsession of mine. I love them and jump at the chance to read them whenever I find them. Plus this one had the whole paranormal element to it so the blurb pulled me in hook, line and sinker. Unfortunately it just wasn’t what I really hoped it would be. I wish the author gave us more on the paranormal side. I felt like it was just lightly sprinkled throughout the book and was really hoping it would be more of the story. It wasn’t a bad story per se, I just thought the paranormal part of it would set it apart from what I’m used to and it ended up kind of just blended in the mix. I will say though that the author can for sure write some steamy scenes and I did enjoy reading those. I do look forward to reading more from this author.

“For Cole. For me. For us. What can’t be.”

Excerpt

Cole

It’s past midnight when I wake up. My window’s open, moonlight streaming in.

That wasn’t what woke me, though.

It wasn’t the pain of the beating, either. That’s already half-healed. By tomorrow it will be nothing.

That’s the thing about wolf discipline. It’s more about dominance and humiliation than actual pain. Casey and I aren’t in real danger.

But that doesn’t mean the shit doesn’t hurt.

I rub the stubble on my chin and blink into the darkness. There’s a tug on my wolf, pulling me to the window. And I know exactly what I’m going to see when I look out.

Even so, my heart stutters.

The little human is standing outside. Standing underneath my window, looking up.

Like she’s waiting for me and she knew I’d come. Prickles run across my skin.

She’s in the same dress she wore today⁠—another short one, blue and white stripes. She lost the Converse, though. She’s barefooted on the crushed granite. Which must hurt her tender human feet.

I’m in gym shorts. I pull on a black tank top as I stare down at her.

She’s standing there like a fucking tribute. A virginal offering.

She must really feel guilty.

I shove the window open and pop the screen out. It’s not the first time I’ve climbed out this window, but I try not to make it look too easy when I scale across the patio overhang and drop to the gravel in front of her. “Hey.”

She’s crying. Silent tears that streak down her pale cheeks. I wonder if she ever stopped. If she’s been leaking those salty tears since she saw the ugliness that is my dad shit-faced. The scent of her tears does something to me. Makes me itchy and raw, with the need to smash things with my fists.

“Stop it.” I sound menacing. I’m not sorry. She silently called me out here. She’s gonna get what she gets. I advance on her like a fucking predator.

She backs up. She must sense how dangerous I am right now. How unhinged.

“Was it because of me?”

Of course it was because of her. But I’m not going to say that. That shit isn’t her fault.

Instead, I growl, “Stop crying for me.”

Her big brown eyes are wide. I wonder how well she can see me in the dark. Not nearly as well as I can see her.

“Stop it,” I command. “I’m the one who got the beatdown.”

“Cole.” It’s a broken syllable. So much emotion packed into one sound. Apology. Pleading. Desperation, even.

My control snaps. I snatch her face up to mine with a hand behind her head and devour her mouth. It tastes like all the emotion I heard.

Except more.

I savor gratitude and soft, supple generosity. Pent up anger. Grief.

Desire.

I scoop my forearm under her ass to pick her up and slam her back against the tan stucco of her house.

She opens her lips for me, lets me in. It’s not how I imagined it.

It’s better.

More raw. Sweeter, even though I’m fucking brutal with my attack. Her lips twist over mine with the same intensity, her nails claw into my bare shoulders. I shove the bulge of my cock in the cradle of her legs, even though I know it will probably scare the shit out of her.
