My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This is the 3rd book in the Hidden Valley Elite series and omg I am officially addicted to these books. The author has such a unique way of writing. All of the characters have back stories and quite dark backstories which shape them into the people they are today. I definately recommend reading these books in order as Damon is the brother of Cole from the first 2 books so they follow on.

Well I don’t want to give too much away but this story involves Damon and Skylar. Damon is still coming to terms with everything he’s learn surrounding his mother’s passing (gotta read the other books). This has led him to be a very angry young man. He is a bit of an ass and treats people like dirt. He’s easy to be a character to hate.
Until Skylar comes along. Skylar propositions Damon, if he can make her friends dreams come true he will get her. Damon is up for a challenge, after all any excuse to get his hands on Skylar. Not that he likes her (Yeah right) but to make this deal sweet for him.
What unfolds is a story of 2 people finding a connection then never knew existed but with some many people involved someone is bound to get hurt and with the cliffhanger at the end I am literally on the edge of my seat waiting for the next installment.

Brutal days is the third book to the Hidden Valley Elite Series, but it is book 1 to Damon and Skylar’s tense enemies to lovers romance story. Skylar wants nothing more to finish her senior year as a writer, help her friend with her senior mission, and have nothing to do with the “Elites” as she does it. When her friend zeros in on Damon for her senior dream goals, things get tricky. She wants him and Sky has to help her. But how? He’s controlling, a jerk, one of the football stars who’s untouchable in their school, and to top it off Sky likes him too. She doesn’t want to want him, but she can’t help it. She makes a deal with him to help her friend, but she’s getting stuck in a huge the web of lies and she can’t seem to cut herself loose. She’ll sacrifice everything to help her friend, but her plan is bound to blow up in her face. Damon wants senior year to fly by so he can join his brother in college and run the football team there. His brother, his two cousins, and he have been working toward that plan forever. NFL together all the way! Unfortunately senior year is dragging by. He needs more to distract himself, but what? Underground fights normally help, but he needs more to dull his rage and distract him from his family life. He doesn’t like Sky’s friend. She talks to much, her perfume gives him a headache, and she’s clingy but he’ll date her if he can get what he wants from Sky. Sky gets under his skin. She’s mouthy and has a fire in her eyes, but he wants her. He can’t help but want to bend her to his will. Maybe once he has her he’ll get her out of his head. Hopefully. Will there little deal work out? Will her friend stand up for her or will she hate her forever? Will Damon get the distraction he needs? Will he ruin his senior year over some stupid girl? Man oh man do you need to read this book!! This book ends on a HUGE cliffhanger and you will want to run and grab the next book asap. I know that I can’t wait to read the next one! This set has been so great so far! The characters stories hook you in and you won’t want to put this book down. If you love new adult, romance, enemies to lovers, tense, spicy back and forth banter, and drama filled books then you will love this one!

After reading the other books in the series I could not wait to start reading this one. And I have to say this book is just a good as the others. I was pulled into the story straight away and could not put it down. This book is one of those I had to read in one sitting because I was so drawn into it.
I loved these characters just as much as the others. This author really knows how to write captivating characters that completely take over. The book was fast paced, exciting and written so well that I was never sure about how it would all turn out. I was engrossed from the moment I started reading and I would advise everyone to read this book immediately.

Hardcore
The title is spot on – this is brutal. Damon holds nothing back when it comes to Skylar, in more ways than one. I’m loving the Hidden Valley Elite series and this instalment did not disappoint. It’s a dark enemies to lovers bully romance and it packs a punch. The writing, characterisation and dual POV are on point. My only dilemma is the cliffhanger (which we are warned about). I need Brutal Nights now! Highly recommend.

Oh my goodness….Brutal Days….amazing! I absolutely loved it and can’t wait for the next book. How am I supposed to wait like a month or more to find out what happens. I’m sorry I strongly disliked Damon in previous books but this book….I think I love him. He seems like the egotistical jerk but when he finds someone who may or may not be his type and finds something that he wants, he won’t stop trying to get it. No one ever says no to the elite but Skylar isnt like most girls ( the elite fan club ) she’s trying to be a good friend and help her best friend complete her senior list of what she wants to accomplish. Even if that puts her close to the one guys she can’t stand. This whole series so far is soooo good.
Brutal Nights can’t come soon enough!

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This is the third book in this series which I enjoyed reading just as much as the previous books. This is an author that I have enjoyed reading from the first book I picked up. I never hesitate to pick up her books. One of the things I enjoy most about this author is her ability to pull me into the story with her writing skills and details. This book is no different. It is a well written story that is hard to put down. It is an enemies to lovers story that you don’t want to miss. It is fast paced and engaging. The characters pull you into their world and keep you coming back for more. They have great growth and chemistry throughout the story. A story where a plan made may not be followed and the unexpected happens. I really enjoyed this story and how easy it is to read. An entertaining story that I highly recommend. I also suggest checking out the other books in this series by this author, you wont be disappointed.

Oh, the things we do for friends. Sky’s best friend, Gia, is crushing on Damon Savage. She’d due anything to help her friend, even due what Damon wants. The chemistry between Damon and Sky is off the charts. Forget the Elites and those gossip-mongers. These two have some sparks going. This is one hot and steamy romance. They both have some issues to deal with. Damon shows that he’s just as much of a &*)hole as his brother, Cole, could be. All I can really tell you without spoiling is that the story is worth reading. The characters are so dramatic that it’s easy to relate to them. The plot runs faily smooth. This book might combust in your hands but it’s so worth it to pick and read. The drama and romance is better than one of those cheesy shows on TV. You know what I’m talking about. Hit that One-Click button.

No sacrifice is too big.

No secret too small.

I’m out to win, and I don’t even know the game.

No sacrifice is too big.

No secret too small.

I’m out to win, and I don’t even know the game.

My opponents? They’re the Academy’s football stars, gods among their peers, and I want nothing to do with them.

But I’m stuck on a mission to help out a friend, and keeping my distance shouldn’t be too hard.

That’s when Damon Savage walks in, looking like he stepped out of a magazine, and worse—my friend wants him… and I’m the one who has to play matchmaker.

I’m tangled in a web of lies, and only I can set myself free.

There’s only one problem with my plan… Damon’s determination to bend me to his will and my dark desires to let him.

Brutal Days is an enemies-to-lovers, new adult, high school bully romance with plenty of angst. This book contains mature content that some readers may find disturbing. It is not a standalone and does end in a cliffhanger that continues with a ton of heat and a HEA in Brutal Nights.
