St. Johns is a talented violinist hiding out in a Hollywood mansion, struggling

Rejects front man Sebastian Tate sees the elusive girl in the mansion next door
playing her violin nude, and they
begin an erotic game of spying.

his heart to a girl isn’t Sebastian’s plan; falling for a guy who craves
attention isn’t Violet’s.

3.5 Musical Stars
I Love, Love, Love this series but I have to
confess that by the time I read this one I did have trouble remembering who all
the characters where which, as I am a complete pain in the arse meant I spent
more time trying to remember why the names were familiar and who they were in
relation to everyone else that it took away a bit from this story. With that
said it isn’t the fault of Isla in the slightest it is solely due to the fact I
have goldfish brain from reading so many books. The plus side to this was it
felt like a standalone and tbh I much prefer those due to said goldfish brain.
Now that you all know I am special I guess I
can get on with an actual review.
Isla had me hook line and sinker from her first
book. She writes crazy, possessive alpha men who are complete arseholes and
give the female leads whiplash with how hot and cold they run and give me wet
panties cause for some bizarre reason I can’t get enough of them. And of course
Sebastian lived up to his predecessors.
The blurb for this book really lets poor V down
I have to say. I was expecting her to be annoying as fuck but instead she was
the character that had me gripped. She was the twisted character and I felt for
her from the moment I met her.
Violet has lead a charmed life surrounded by
fairy dust until it explodes, literally, on her 18th birthday. Whereas Sebastian has struggled to pave a
path to his current success and will do anything to build on his fame and get
where he wants to go V just wants to find the willpower to not jump off a
ledge.
They “meet” when Blonde guy moves in next door
and hears Violin girl playing on her balcony and thus begins a nightly routine
of him watching her every night and falling more and more under her spell.
And of course Monster didn't hurt. Gotta love a man who loves his dog.
But of course the path to a New Adult romance
can never run smoothly so we had the normal push and pull with a few twists and
turns thrown in, mixed with a perfect amount of humour, sexual tension and
perfect alpha growling.
I was seriously looking forward to the
Briarcrest Reunion so I was very disappointed that wasn’t a major part of the
story but I can only pray that we get spiders story next and get it there. And
since I am such a massive fan of Spider’s I will be waiting with twitchy
fingers to one click that book.
If you haven’t yet started this series you need
to grab it today as it is the ultimate in Alphas for New Adult Romance.
Very Bad Things by Ilsa Madden-MillsMy rating: 4 of 5 stars
I started reading this book thinking I wouldn't like it. Then I read a page, then 100, then I had finished it and it was 4am.
For a debut novel it was outstanding. Briarcrest Academy is definitely a must read series. And Isla Madden-Mills is a must stalk author.
I think the main thing for me was that Nora was obviously so broken but unlike most romance novel main characters she wasn't waiting around for someone to come along and fix her she instead set about making lists to fix herself.
There were plenty of times in this book I wanted to have Leo get torn a new one.
But being in his head for half of the story we saw his wankerness for more than just a selfish young guy thinking with his dick.
I can't wait to read the next book in the series and see if we get an insight into any of the secondary characters I loved in this book. Hopefully our big ole pussycat Lion will be the next one up. Hint hint Isla ;)
