Description:
Born
into a life of privilege and secrets, Nora Blakely has everything any
nineteen-year-old girl could desire. She’s an accomplished
pianist, a Texas beauty queen, and on her way to Princeton after high
school. She’s perfect…
Leaving
behind her million dollar mansion and Jimmy Choos, she becomes a girl
hell-bent on pushing the limits with alcohol, drugs, and meaningless
sex.
Then
she meets her soulmate. But he doesn’t want her.
When
it comes to girls, twenty-five-year old Leo Tate has one rule: never
fall in love. His gym and his brother are all he cares about…until
he meets Nora. He resists the pull of their attraction, hung up on
their six year age difference.
As
they struggle to stay away from each other, secrets will be revealed,
tempers will flare, and hearts will be broken.
Welcome
to Briarcrest Academy…where sometimes, the best things in life are
Very
Bad Things.
My Review:
Wow!! I love this book!! Even from the start up to the last, it's amazing!!
About the story, the concept of the story is so good. I love how it started! lol!! You'll never get bored in this book! One of my favorite parts of this book was how the story started, it was good, fresh and unbelievably unexpected but oh so cool! The characters of the story was also great. The way the main characters were made/written is absolutely just right. They are not boring and they are easy to like. I love how the characters has the power to capture my interest. The ending of the story is also good, exactly how it's supposed to be (great!!)
Ms. Ilsa did a really good job in making this book interesting and fun that you will definitely enjoy! It's just right and not boring! This book is really a good read!! Can't wait for more of Ms. Ilsa and Briarcrest Academy Series' next book!!

Ilsa
Madden-Mills is a loving wife and mother, a loyal friend, and a
teacher. When all that is done, she writes. Obsessively.
She spends her days with two small kids, a neurotic cat, and her Viking husband. She collects magnets and rarely cooks except to bake her own pretzels.
When she’s not typing away at a story, you can find her drinking too much Diet Coke, jamming out to Pink, or checking on her carefully maintained chocolate stash.
She loves to hear from from fans and fellow authors. Check her out on Facebook or her author website.

There
are three excerpts. Please chose the one (or more) that you’d like
to showcase.
Excerpt:
Nora
and Leo Meet
“Drop the paint and turn
around slowly with your hands in the air.” The loud command was
said with a deep voice. “I’ve got a gun, so move nice and slow.”
I bent over and placed the
can on the pavement. I started to turn when— “I said put your
hands in the air!” he yelled.
I yanked my hands up and
eased around to face the owner of the voice.
He was about ten feet away
from me, standing six feet and then some. He was missing a shirt but
wearing a pair of black athletic shorts and flip-flops. Judging by
his disheveled dirty blond hair and bloodthirsty eyes, I’d have to
guess this might
be the owner of the Escalade.
And I’d just woken him up.
He came closer to me, and my
eyes were immediately drawn to his green-and-blue dragon tattoo. Like
a giant snake, the scaled body of the dragon wrapped around his
forearm and bicep with the neck coming down from his shoulder and the
head resting on his broad chest. Red flames poured from its mouth,
between laser sharp teeth.
This guy looked medieval.
So, I squinted and pictured
him as a rugged Viking, wearing a horned helmet and gripping a spear
instead of a gun. Maybe holding a shield instead of his flashlight
and definitely wearing some of those laced-up leather boots. The word
berserker
(from round two of the famous spelling bee) came to mind, and I
rolled the syllables around my tongue . . . ber-serk-er.
Yep, that
was him alright: one pissed off Norse warrior.
I grinned at my amazing
analogy because, well, I’d had too much to drink.
“You think this is funny,
son?” he snapped.
I shook my head, suddenly
aware that some guy was pointing a gun at me.
And he thought I was a boy.
