Savage Lies (Hidden Valley Elite Book 1) by Isla Vaughn – Review by Shelly Kittell
Savage Lies: A High School Bully Romance by Isla Vaughn
My rating: 5 of 5 stars
Oh my, Riley and Cole meet again. I must say, he has some set of cojones to act like that. Big bully that needs his butt set straight. I enjoyed getting to read more of their story. Getting some more background into where Riley came from helped set the tone and the mood. Cole’s need for revenge is setting up some bad stuff down the pipeline and I can’t wait for book 3 to see what happens. This installment of the series will have you right on the edge because it is intriguing, exciting and drama filled. The elite 4 and their ”witches” create problems. The characters are so well done. If this were on TV, I’d be glued. I’m glad it’s not, the picture in my head is so much more. I couldn’t put it down. The nightmare Riley had gave me a nightmare, so I’ll give a trigger warning DV. But this a must read romance that will pull you in and not let you out. The story is believable and relatable. These characters could be kids from your town. The drama, well, let’s just say that we’ve all been there. A must read. Definitely a series on my Best for 2023.
