Wild King (King Brothers Series) by K.M. Scott – Review by Micalah Weatherholtz

Wild King (King Brothers Book 2)Wild King by K.M. Scott
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Wild King is the second book in the King Brothers series and what an addition it was. A second chance, enemies to lovers, well written romance. I enjoyed this one as much as book number one. We are introduced to another King brother, Kellen. After a hot, wild, weekend with no names exchanged he ups and leaves when he is called back to work to deal with an issue. He seems to be just as surly as Matthias, who in fact hires Salem, and has apparently built up a bad reputation which our FMC, Salem, is hoping to fix. Will her tough girl, no holds barred personality make a difference to Kellen’s bad boy reputation? Well read on and see. Looking forward to the next King brothers book.

I just finished reading Cruel King, and the story completely swept me away. This captivating book intricately blends an enemies-to-lovers and second-chance romance, weaving together a tapestry of intense drama, raw emotions, passionate romance, profound regrets, and powerful life-altering mistakes. The enigmatic main character, Kellen, is a captivating wild bad boy who fearlessly lives life on the edge, but a fateful encounter with a special someone forces him to reassess his past actions and contemplate his future. The narrative is so immersive that I’m eagerly looking forward to delving into more of KM’s books.

Wild King (King Brothers Series) by K.M. Scott

Kellen
It was only supposed to be a well-deserved, three-day break from life back in the city.
Three days in the islands without interruptions from work or anything else.
Then I met her. She was beautiful and sexy, and she insisted we didn’t share names. I would have been crazy not to agree to a long weekend of anonymous sex.
I don’t know when it happened, but it turned into more. I started thinking about forever with my mystery woman.
That doesn’t sound like something a bad boy ever considers, but there it is. I’d found the woman for me.
And just when I had it all, I blew it.
Salem
He crashed into my life like a hurricane. He was sexy and charming, but he was a bad boy through and through, untamed and wild.
I should have run away the moment he walked up to my table. Instead, I let myself be seduced by his soulful dark brown eyes and a body made for pleasure.
I thought I could be safe if I kept our time together anonymous. How wrong I was.
Fate has a way of giving people what they deserve, and it seems to think I should have a chance to make him suffer.
Now this good girl has to decide if she still cares for that bad boy she met in the islands or wants to exact her revenge.

Savage Truth (Hidden Valley Elite Book 2) by Isla Vaughn – Review by Heather Bass

Savage Truth (Hidden Valley Elite #2)Savage Truth by Isla Vaughn
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I have read a couple of books from this author and she continues to blow my mind. This is the second book in the very addictive series Hidden Valley. I love good enemies but lovers’ stories and this one is in my top three. These books need to be read in order or you will be totally lost. I love how this author writes from both of the characters’ points of view. It makes me feel more emotionally connected to them. I can’t wait to read book three.

Riley and Cole are now living together. They hate each other with a passion. They have one thing in common: they want to get their parents to split. Riley is starting to feel like she belongs at the high school but Cole has other plans for her. He will stop it at nothing to get the truth from Riley and her mother. He knows they are hiding secrets but will it be enough to get rid of them for good? Riley is afraid that her past will come and take her away. She needs someone in her corner but will it be too late?

Savage Start: A High School Bully Romance Prequel (Hidden Valley Elite Series) by Isla Vaughn – Review by Jade Brunton

Savage Truth (Hidden Valley Elite #2)Savage Truth by Isla Vaughn
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Holy rollercoaster ride! There was SO much packed into this book. I have read all of the previous installments and couldn’t put this one down towards the end. When you learn the history and background of all the characters, and the story all falls into place, you won’t be able to put it down. Every single character in this book has some type of character development and while this is a “high school romance” it doesn’t feel that way. I love Riley. I think she is a great main character. She’s very intuitive and hardly goes against what she is feeling. She has a great head on her shoulder. Cole’s transformation was incredible to see as he started to be honest with himself. While this book does have a little bit of spice to it, the storyline really takes the cake.

The third book in Cole and Riley’s relationship. This is where they actually start acknowledging their feelings and it is well worth the read. Each book I read is getting better and better. It has all the suspense, action, humor, and romance one could want in a book.

While this series is starting to grow on me more I feel so invested that I have no choice but to read the books.
The author does a good job with being able to relate to the characters but at times the books seem drawn out and forced. For me it hinders the flow of the books.

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Savage Truth is book number two in The Hidden Valley Elite series of books, but is the conclusion to Riley and Cole’s story. The whole series should be read in order. Savage Truth was a super quick, suspenseful, slightly confused, rollercoaster, high school romance. There is no doubt this author can write, she can spin a story and pack what seems like a lot in such a short amount of pages, I just felt like doing so causes some scenes to feel a little disjointed, but not enough that I wouldn’t continue. I like how it alternates view points because I always like to hear from both main characters, and the chemistry between the characters was intense. I’m interested to see where the author takes the series next.

Wow! This ended the way I hoped it would. It’s definitely a roller-coaster of a book, and series. I finally had some questions answered about Riley’s dad. Over all I think this book was well written. It keeps you guessing and on the edge of your seat and the chemistry between Cole and Riley is steamy!

Book one and book two could have easily been one book but I can definitely see why it was split. With that being said, this book cannot be read as a stand alone. Cole and Riley are now forced to live in the house together. Cole is plotting how to get rid of Riley and her mom, Riley is trying to convince her mom to leave. The tension that is felt in this book can be cut with a knife. Hot, captivating, twists at every turn, and an ending that will shock you. You will not be able to put this book down.

Second book in the series by this author who manages to blend and fuse Young /New Adult, High School bully romance with angst and warmth that could bring a happy ever after.<br />In this well written book we follow the story of Cole, highschool king and Riley as their relationship develops from one of abject dislike but attraction and ,not good enough for me’. Things change when Cole discovers secrets about Riley and her mother. The push and pull relationship grows and changes as the characters continue to grow.<br />Another amazing read. <br />

Cole and riley continue their “affair” in book and comes to a close. It feels so similar to another store I’ve read I had a hard time “ getting into it “

I was left torn in two yearning for everything this book could be but disappointed but the repeated actions. However I suppose it coincides with the fact that they are high school students. They sure act like it.

The storyline was promising I just felt it was lacking and could’ve been really robust.

Savage Truth: A Dark High School Bully Romance (Hidden Valley Elite Book 2)

Another fantastic read!

Savage Truth is the second book in The Hidden Valley Elite series.

This book continues with Riley and Cole and their love and hate relationship. A lot gets unpacked in this book, and the author does a good job of unpacking it and bringing it all out to where you can’t put the book down. Riley finally gets the truth about her biological father, who is not a nice guy and gets to lay this part of her life to rest. Now on to college!

Isla Vaughn is an amazing author, and has quickly become one of my favorites. The Hidden Valley Elite series is one of the best series I’ve read in a long time. I love the characters, the world building, the storytelling is amazing. I truly feel like I’m in high school again when I’m reading. I love Riley and Cole’s story. I loved the animosity and the buildup and the everything about it. If you love the drama, the heat, the everything, you’ll love this story. I absolutely suggest this book (and all the others) for you to read! You wont be disappointed!!!

I absolutely loved reading the conclusion of Cole and Riley’s story. Riley has done everything to get under Cole’s skin. Even when they are now living under the same roof since their parents are getting married. Cole wants to absolutely destroy her, but he can’t help the feeling that has wormed its way into his heart. The conclusion was amazing and was like fireworks exploding. Their ending was well-deserved and fitting in my eyes. I was a little sad to see their story end because I had gotten attached to them. But I can’t wait to see what else Isla has in store for her readers next!

Savage Lies (Hidden Valley Elite Book 1) by Isla Vaughn – Review by Paloma Fierro 22/2/24

Riley is new to town, as always, for her and her mom are the type that only stay while the cons are good, aka victim of the latter. Now she is facing everything by herself and she is beginning to doubt the motives behind this new setting of things. Her uncle, mom and her are a team, but lately none of them are around or sharing the plan.  

 

Cole is getting by, after her mom suicided, one more year of high school and he is off to Uni where he does not have to deal with his asshole father. But there is a memory that his brain does not let go, a kiss with a strange girl that is burned into the depths of his subconscious. 

 

This strangers to lovers is full of high school drama.

The book starts right where it left off from the previous book, Savage Lies. The way this book is written will keep you on edge and will keep you on your toes, so that you will need to know what’s happening next. There is a lot going on at the same time between the main characters, Cole and Riley. I like how the author goes back and forth between the characters, it does give a sense of how they each relate to what’s going on in the story. Overall, as you start this series, be prepared not to get much done around the house.

The story of Riley and Cole. When Riley and her mother move into Cole and Damon’s home its fair game. Cole will do anything he can to get rid of Riley and her mother the one who ruined their lives. If looks could kill or smolder with lust Cole and Riley would win the biggest prize out there. They can’t keep their eyes off one another yet, they love to hate one another. Riley has her own set of issues which keeps her from getting close to anyone, and now they are under one roof as their parents are getting married. However, Riley has a dark secret one that Cole will do everything in his power to uncover but at what cost. A great read.

This one picks up right where book one ends and just like the first one it was great. This time I had no problem sinking right into Cole and Riley’s world. I’m sad to leave these characters because they really captured a piece of my heart. Cole had me cursing his name a lot but you can’t help but understand that underneath it all he’s just hurt by his past. Riley will always have my heart she’s got sass and I just overall loved her character. There’s romance, suspense and everything I love in a story. I’m looking forward to more from this author. Five stars and highly recommended!

I love how this author writes from both of the characters’ points of view. It makes me feel more emotionally connected to them. I can’t wait to read book two.

Riley and her mom move a lot but when they come back to the small town again she is shocked. She is going to the Hidden Valley High now and she already has made an enemy Cole. He remembers who this girl was and he is not going to let her forget it. When Riley finds out that her mom is dating Cole’s father it gets even worse for her. Riley has secrets that she doesn’t want to find out but when her past comes back to haunt her will she turn to her enemy for help?

It has been a year and now Riley is back in Hidden Valley and again, she is alone, her mum is off with a man, but Riley is not sure what her angle is, but when she has a surprise visitor, she has no idea what to do, except that she really doesn’t want to stick out, but one kiss destroyed that idea. Cole Savage is one of the Hidden Valley Elite, a group of football stars who also happen to be family, the four of them rule the school and everyone knows it, but for Cole, one kiss stayed imprinted on his mind, but it wasn’t one of the usual girls, it was wits a stranger who got away.

As she is staying put for now, Riley has to go to school, but her plan to stay incognito isn’t working because she runs straight into Cole and his fellow Elite, this is where Riley realises just how bad things are going to be. Cole is already in a bad mood, but as soon as he sees the mystery girl he kissed right in front of him, he is lost in memories and makes the snap decision to make her his and have a bit of fun at her expense.

As the days move ahead, things are escalating between the Elite and herself, not to mention at school, but she is determined to win this dangerous game because of she doesn’t, things could turn deadly! Will Riley be able to keep Cole at arms length and herself safe, or will things spiral out of control? This is a young adult romance with a dose of darkness where nothing is as it seems and secrets swirl around everyone, in this rollercoaster of emotions.

I was surprised about some of the action in this book, wasn’t expecting it but it really made the story. This one out of the series was jam packed with lots of action but also answers to wrap stuff up.
Glad the series is just beginning even though moving on to another couple! Bring more on!

This is book one in Hidden Valley Elite, now I will say that there is a prequel, Savage Start and although I highly recommend that you read it you will be fine if you don’t. It is a well written, high school enemies to lover’s romance. Charaters are well written and will keep you wanting more. Lots of drama, bullying, lies, jealousy, secrets, love and hate. Definitely a good read.

Always on the run, always changing appearance, locations, schools. Never one for being in the same place for long, can Riley fit in at this Elite school?
Lots of trigger warnings, but if you have no triggers and like Bully romance this will be perfect.

Savage Lies is an enemies-to-lovers, new adult, high school bully romance with plenty of angst.
