At Angelview Academy, secrets, lies, and betrayal always win.
How do I know?
I’m the girl whose future just went up in flames.
The outsider from the wrong side of the tracks.
The mortal who didn’t bow to Angelview’s resident god, Saint Angelle.
He said he’d own me, and he did—every inch, from my mind to my body to my soul.
Saint even promised to break me.
That’s where he screwed up.
Because every god should know you can’t break a girl that’s already broken. A girl who’s been shaped by secrets, lies, and betrayal since the day she was born.
That’s why this time around, the elite won’t win.
I will.

Dnf. Awful

This book was terrible. Mallory and saint are just plain unlikeable. Mallory’s chases after toxic sauce demanding he answer her questions and his response is to make sexual advances at her. He’s mean. I thought this was a reverse harem book. Nope. Gabe is nonexistent. Rosalind is pointless. Laurel is just plain awful and Mallory gets no sort of protection from the bullying. No one ever gets in trouble for attacking her. Just everything about this book is unfortunate. Long drawn out pointless nonsense.

POV: h                   Things are beginning to piece together

Mallory and Saint

Must read Saint first.

Continuing right from the cliffhanger ending from Saint.
After being a target, to being protected now betrayed and humiliated in front of the whole student body, Mallory is beyond broken. All her secrets are out. Except for one vital detail, which she's determined to keep. But with having a face from her past in the Academy, will that secret stay between them?
But with recent developments Mallory is prime suspect. She packs up and leaves the Academy. When she gets home she thinks it's best not to return back Angelview. Start a new school where no-one knows her.
Until a surprise visitor comes by and tries to get her to go back. Maybe this person is an ally......"with not coming back you're letting him win, you can't let him win."

So Mallory reconsiders going back, glutton for punishment and all that. These overprivaliged rich bully jerks aren't going to break her further than she already is. She's thick skinned, considering her lifestyle with Jenn.

In returning, she's still not welcomed by the students, they've amped up their hatred for her. Mind you they're only following the one and only highest God-like that is Saint, and queen bitch (it girl) Laurel, (who shattered her in front of the who student body) like the good little lambs that they are.
Mallory still has a friend in Loni and Henry. They understand why she never answered her phone or texts and don't hold that against her.
She's determined to figure out the mystery of the photo who has a woman resembling her and her mother Jenn. Could it Jenn pre-her and drugs?

And now with her past in her face, in the form of a teacher at the Academy, can she cope?
She just wants to forget and move on from Saint, but it looks like he's already moved on from her. Which gives her the extra hatred to (try) and push Saint out of her heart and head.
No matter how she tries to stay away from Saint, they find each other. It's like they've got this push and pull connection. Mallory hates herself everytime she let's Saint near her. He's just a rich, selfish, cruel, sadistic, psycho.
He needs her to still leave Angelview. While certain people are telling her to stay away from Saint.

Then Mallory finds out some shocking news. Stunned is more like it. Just as she finds something horrific.
Who's behind all this?
Who's in that photo?
How & who are they connected to Mallory?

This was such a gripping, concluding part. Yes, you've guessed it, CLIFFHANGER!
Stay tuned for the next instalment, coming soon. Can't wait to see how everything unfolds.

Three stars... (these are three very reluctant and conditional stars...)

Warning: rant ahead!

So, basically, this story reminds me of the Royal Elite series of books by Rina kent. This is because the h is weak and stupid and the H is abusive and borderline insane. However, both writers do this thing where they had this complicated back story.

Do you know the number of times that he tugged her hair back to kiss her, or he slammed his hands on either side of her head on the wall behind her to hold her back, or he wrapped his hand around her throat? too many to count and all of these times, the h was just too weak and 'affected' by his touch to pull away.

There were so many times that I wanted to scream at her and shake her shoulders and scream at her letting her know that she is the dumbest person I know for even still liking someone who had never in his life had one kind thing to say about her.
- He didn't have a heart. I was so sure that he had no heart but she was just too far gone to realize it. - She keeps having all this inner monologue about how she is going to stay away from him and she screams at him multiple times over and over that she will never have sex with him again but like a broken record, she is back in his bed. (My thing is, if you want to have a toxic relationship, stop whining about it and just do it. I had to skim through all of that whining).
- She was just simply annoying. With all that whining, there was barely any of the actual big plots that I stayed for.
- The whole catty, mean school girl act from the OW was getting too much. I was just so annoyed that I rolled my eyes every damn time she spoke. like shut up and let me move on with the story, please.
- Why is everyone in the damn story apart from the best friend and foster mom so... angry. literally for no reason. It was very annoying. Is life just that bad for everyone that they are just so angry for no reason?
- I am still pissed that I am not seeing any character development from the H. He is seriously bipolar and every time I think, maybe he won't stab the h in the back while calling her ever degrading name in the book again, he goes and stabs her in the back while calling her every degrading name in the book.

Overall, I came to the conclusion that the h simply has no shame nor self-respect. That has to be the reason she keeps embarrassing herself over and over again. I can't even blame anyone else for her hardships other than her. She knows what to do to get out of her situation. come on, a girl has to pick herself up some time and say 'I deserve better' doesn't she?

I really don't see any way that the H can redeem himself. If the h has any self-respect, she would leave his ass and start over somewhere else once it is all over. she would also make sure to invest in therapy to help herself off all the mental issues that the H surely brought her.

enough of the ranting... sigh... off to the third one now. after this series, I taking a break from bully romance (I am very careful with calling it that tho. nothing romantic about this so I will not be filing it as romance).

Excellent, captivating story

This book starts off exactly as book 1 left off where I was left with my mouth hanging open. In book 1 we learned some significant details of the heroine's background, but in this book, all secrets are exposed. This story continues to be gritty, with the same toxicity in relationships, the stronger than ever sexual attraction, amid the persistent bullying.

New characters are introduced from the heroine's and hero's families. We learn where the leading characters come from, their motivations. This book seemed to be written with more mystery and romantic suspense since book 1 set the stage for personalities and behaviors. This mystery reveals more about how the heroine and hero are connected and explains more about the reasoning of hero's treatment of the heroine. The hero was still over the top jealous and possessive of the heroine, still claiming her even has he tried (and failed) to distance himself from her against a backdrop of palatable, off-the-charts sexual chemistry.

Again, a hangover of a cliffhanger, and I can't wait for book 3.

Let's just say the only thing got me going on was that there was some story other than the jerk HERO's egoistic remarks and spineless sexually desperate clingy whiny excuse for a heroine.


After allllll the drama, the humiliation by HERO, his bitches, the whole school......this is what we get to read:

He chuckles, and it’s an evil sound that makes me shiver.
“That’s my little masochist,
” he growls, spanking me
again. “No one else gets to see you like this, do you
understand?”
I shake my head against the mattress. “No one else. Just
you.”
-----------------------------



I MEAN....IT'S basically proven, the only thing most authors have left is the same cringe bully/romance cycle that we see in every Wattpad story.

If you really just wanna make money do something else rather than writing a whole useless series containing nothing but cliches....wasting out time and money.....

Pretty good, starting to get repetitive though,

Like Jesus Christ, how many times is Liam going to apologize and then do the exact thing he apologized for three seconds later?!?!?!?

And how many times can the author really have Saint "surprisingly" appear. Kind of a weird criticism, but it's never just "Saint arrived" (or wtv) but it's always; "someone knocked at the door, when I opened the door it wasn't who I excepted, it was Saint".

Ok hear me out, that sounds stupid, but if it was rampant enough for me to notice and say something about it, it's clearly overdone.

Obviously a lot of the situations are 10000% unrealistic, but that's really not that bad. :)

Ok, it's late and I'm borderline incoherent bye bye

Daaaaaaang. Okay straight up, I seriously love Mal and Saint. They’re absolute fire together, gasoline and a match every step of the way. While I wish we had more of Saint from book one, he did have his moments that had me swooning over him.

There are definitely some twists and turns happening here, especially toward the end. I’m definitely invested in book three and can’t wait to see how everything comes together.

Loni and Liam are still my showstealers though, I absolutely love them!

I am so glad that I read this book.

This is by far one of my favorite bully romances I've read. It has all the little things that I like in it and I'll tell you what all those things are. (sorry if this gets repetitive) This is also kind of a review of the entire 3 book series so there may be spoilers.

1. The romantic/sexual tension just keeps going with the hero and the heroine. They never fall in love in this first book (or 2nd) and they never commit to each other. All they know is they are very attracted to each other and it's fun and hot. But she hates him because he is a huge asshole to her and in general. And he hates her and just gets off on taunting her. Neither of them really gets mushy at all in this first book (or the second!) Even when he comes to her defense on multiple occasions to keep her safe, he does it in the most assholey way possible.

2. The hero doesn't cave quickly to his feelings for the heroine. Same for her. She's crazy attracted to him but she keeps her emotions at bay because she is well aware he is major bad news. I LOVE it when it's really a long journey for the couple to ultimately commit to each other. For the hero he is just a control freak possessive guy but not a relationship guy or whatever for most of the series.

3. The author stays true to the hero's character. He's a total asshole the WHOLE time to the heroine even once it becomes pretty obvious he has strong feelings for her beyond just an intense initial infatuation. And so far (in the series), I don't think the heroine has gotten "dick dumb" as I've heard it called. Basically just losing her personality entirely with her infatuation with the hero.

4. The heroine isn't a doormat but also isn't unrealistically tough.

5. I like that there is another guy who truly cares for her and he isn't just a convenient plot point to cause tension between the hero and heroine. It definitely does cause tension but it's a real storyline as opposed to just a means to an end for the main couple, you know what I mean? I hate books that have some random unimportant/semi-important guy character who gets the hero all jealous for a second just so there can be a dramatic jealousy scene or something. so dumb. Anyways... Her relationship with him feels real and it's kind of sad for him because you keep seeing how much he feels for her over and over again. He sees how bad the hero treats her and it really tears him up that she keeps going back to him and doesn't seem to feel the same way about him. Either way, Liam, the other guy, is causing constant tension throughout the story. I love it. The only thing that was hard was that you know she doesn’t feel anything for him like that and it’s too bad he wasn’t able to tempt her and make the story crazier. Haha. The last scene in the 3rd book made me so sad for Liam like it seriously broke my heart. Poor guy NEVER stood a chance...

6. I think the whole backstory with the meth mom and fire is interesting. The circumstance of the fire I actually found hilarious and I liked that element. There were a lot of things going on in the story and in general and I was into it. I didn't think it was convoluted, it was just right. Although, in the 3rd book, *SPOILER* their parents turn out to be the villains and I was kind of like meh about it. It was a villain situation where it was not super convincing for me but whatever.

7. I liked the way that the hero and heroines enemyship started. Her throwing an apple at his head for calling her a cunt because she was defending some random girl from him. It's pretty funny and unique I think. I like it that we can understand right from the beginning why the bully hates her as opposed to it being this mystery that doesn't always make the most sense when it's revealed later. Of course it is revealed later that there was more than that. But all the stuff he did felt more like bullying rather than some deep seeded hatred like you see in a lot of bully romances. The hero was legit just getting off on being a dick because he is a dick.

8. The story seems long which I like. There are just so many interactions she's having with the hero it makes for good relationship building and getting to know supporting characters. I felt like there weren't any annoying plot elements that felt cliche. I typically hate club scenes, party scenes, and dumb settings that are usually a set up for somebody getting jealous. The party scenes in this were good because not normal things were happening sort of. It wasn't quite done in the cliche usual way. The whole story is legitimately interesting and I didn't find myself getting bored at the end of this book which I often do. Usually when I get bored it's because the hero and heroine are on the same side now and working together and all that fun exciting tension is gone. That's boring. I’m not interested in reading about a committed relationship. Hard pass. I have one of those in real life, which is why I like reading about fucked up relationships hahahaa.

9. So ya, THEY ARE NOT ON THE SAME SIDE. And it stays that way throughout the entire trilogy practically. It’s not until the 3rd book that things start changing. But even still it takes longer than I thought it would for them to team up. She never trusts him throughout the whole series and they are in this weird relationship not relationship thing for the whole series. Neither will commit to the other in the traditional sense. He just keeps saying she belongs to him and she's like "stay away from me!" Of course they do get together in the end but it takes the whole series which is super fun.

10. they don't fall for each other too quickly. Their relationship is so fucked up and I really really like how they are both always resisting each other for their own reasons in their own weird ways.

11. The hero is blonde. You don't see that too often. They always have very dark hair I feel like. You know, talk dark and handsome.

12. The Harry Potter references. I love how they call the hero "Hot Draco"

13. The way that he fucks her over (shit I can't remember if it happens in this book or the second) is so brutal. and there is no misunderstanding about what he did. It was actually him. He fucked her over so hard. There is no misunderstanding about it. The only problem I had with that was that there was never any satisfying (for me) confrontation with him about why he did it that way or if he felt bad about doing it to her. I mean, he publicly humiliates her and vaguely apologizes for it way after the fact. We know why he did it, but he never explains why he felt like he had to do her so so bad like that.

14. I thought the sex was pretty good because they were like always having these random unplanned encounters and most of the time the heroine is like no no no we are not doing this you're an asshole but they do it anyways and shes' like goddammit I did it again. And then he ignores her or is a total ass afterwards. idk. Sex between book couples who are all in love and obviously super together is so boring. I need the tense uncertainty of their relationship to make it exciting.

15. I really liked Ghost. He felt like a real character. It’s just too bad he had no story arch… He just disappeared suddenly and I was like whaaat? I felt like it was going somewhere maybe? I have a suspicion maybe he’ll get his own book in the future and maybe that’s why.

Some issues I had with the series as a whole:

1.Rosalind was not explained well. Saint asked her to come back and be his girlfriend and he never really explains why. I mean, you assume it’s as a way to appease his father but he never says so.

2. Like I said already, The parents being the villains was meh for excitement. They didn’t feel evil. They just felt like characters. I was never sure how far the father was personally willing to go to get rid of our heroine.

3. What happened to Ghost?

4. The bitch character Laurel was kind of way over the top. But I mean, you always need a good mean girl to make shit interesting am I right?

5. At the very end of the 3rd book like WHOA too much was unanswered. How tf did Saint do what he did at the very end? And the timeframe doesn’t make sense to me. I feel like I missed something.

6. I kind of wish the heroine had made an attempt to be with Liam, knowing he'd be better for her. We all know who she’ll end up with in the end, but I rarely read romances where there is another guy who is a real competition for the hero. I would like to see that more.

So I guess those are my thoughts. Overall, I really enjoyed the series and would probably read it again in the future once enough time passes that I can’t remember what happened anymore.

The main character was meant to be this strong badass girl in theory but became such a doormat. The drama was OOT and bullying non stop yet she never reports it. So infuriating. Won’t be reading the last installment.

Main Character just fell…

I liked the first book, I was all for the tough girl who wasn’t unbeatable. However I feel this book the likability of her went down by a good 50%. It feels like she became denial about everything and every red flag that was painted out for her. To many that’s not super realistic especially when it comes to someone who’s supposed to be her best friend allowing her to make mistakes. Another thing is, I feel she just got more and more rude towards Liam which to me was very uncalled for. Again in those moments her liability continued to go downhill because there’s not justifying how she acts. Personally I feel she went from this badass I could kind of rock with to a girl who in a movie you’d be like no wonder this and that happened to her. I just wish she didn’t fall completely at the knees of him and grew a pair. She just became a massive turn off.

dissapointing, very disappointing.

the first book was good and i expected the second book will have a great turn, but meh.

mellory seems can’t decide to leave saint even though he already ruined her life, and turns out ANOTHER UNREASONABLE hate.

i was hoping in the the second book the writer would potray mellory and saint chemistry better but i was wrong, tf saint treating her like a sex slave and she was “omg no, but my body cannot resist”.

the way saint give bully her and save her at the same time just to give mellory some justification of his feelings, nah girl, nah. i felt like saint only want sex when it comes to her.

Первая часть по сравнению была в тысячу раз лучше, моя оценка была 4,5, а сейчас просто хочу поделиться с тем что мне не понравилось и увы очень много чего.
1) Я думала что автор знает что делает и да, она знала, тут был секрет который тянули всю книгу, честно лучше бы было поменьше страниц и побольше сюжета, потому что книга превратилась в "После", то главные герои ненавидят друг друга, то через пару страниц трахтибидохаються как ненормальные, жить без друг друга не могут, к сожалению так всю книгу.
2) Наша Мэллори не может просто сказать нет, а когда Сэйнт начинает к ней приставать и в прямом смысле насиловать, это ее нереально возбуждает. Ну вы серьезно? Хотя могу добавить что были разы когда он говорил ей, что она может отказаться от данной процедуры, но увы она говорила только :-"Ненавижу тебя! "- и так всегда, я не понимаю ну вот КАК нельзя сказать просто НЕТ. Сэйнт мало того что ее опозорил, он просто уничтожил ее, а она постоянно веляет хвостиком когда он очень близко к ней. В первой книги на это не было ТАКОГО акцента, но тут увы... Я думала она сильная, раз терпела столько издевательств в первой части и бросала вызов, но автор решила ее сделать обычной второсортной тупой главной героиней.
3) Так же было странно то что автор буквально кардинально поменяла жанр своей книги с романтики, на долбаный триллер, потому что именно таким образом она решила раскрыть секрет второй книги, наверное именно ради этого нужно было тянуть две книги.
4) Супер-тупой мотив Сэйнта ужасно издеваться над Мэллори, ну вы бы тоже начали натрявлять всю школу против девушки из-за того что ваш батя вам взамен что-то пообещал? Прям настолько издеваться чтобы каждый называл ее очень неприятными словами и кидался едой, глиной и многое другое?
5) Почему ну прям вся школа, кроме 3 людей ненавидит гг? Ну не может быть чтобы всего 3 человека из большого количества учеников ее не призирали. Не понимаю как вообще так получалось что каждый верил любому слуху который был связан с Мэллори, ну РЕАЛЬНО? Это так нереалестично... Да и ладно если бы просто верили, но и всей толпой издеваться.. Это ну прям слишком низко и такое в реальности возможно конечно, но не каждый же первый, хотя бы десятый.
6) Почему Призрак решил оставить тело в бассейне? Как его никто не заметил в этой огромной школе? Да и камер хоть и нет в бассейне, но в других частях школы точно есть. Ладно упусти это, но как долбаный Лиам и Сэйнт спрятали труп? Они же потом после призрака решили его спрятать, но куда? Да и почему тут такая хреновая полиция?
7) То как полицейские решили допрашивать Мэллори в двух делах, ладно когда был пожар, тут понятно почему, потому что вся школа указывал на нее и в прошлом она была связана с пожаром, хотя это не делает эти обвинения такими чтобы быть готовыми отвезти ее в тюрьму. Это тупо что 4 человека, плюс деректор на сто процентов уверенны в виновности, хотя доказательств у них нет, у неё блогадаря Сэйнту даже алиби появилось, поэтому они ее отпутисли. Потом пропажа ученика который пытался ее изнасиловать, тут вообще я не поняла, ну как кто-то додумался задержать Мэллори у которой денег как у бомжа, ну КАКИМ ОБРАЗОМ, она могла бы похитить или убить ученика? С помощью сообщника, но они об этом даже не спрашивали и не думали, ну прям как автор. А знаете как копы ее отпустили? Пришёл адвокат нанятый тем самым Сэйнтом и спас ее! Да уж Сэйнт часто ее вытаскливал из передряг, я думала что это из-за того что его отец контролирует его до невозможности и поэтому он часто делал это анонимно, но увы, батя просто ему что-то пообещал, не угрожал, а пообещал.
8) Еше с первой книги меня удивляло то что, Мэллори настолько насрать, что она чуть не умерла в бассейне, что она через пару дней идёт ночью плавать в надежде увидеть Сэйма или Лиама. И в бассейн она ходит почти ежедневно, странно то, что ее никто не спалил, так как нельзя ночью посещать бассейн.
9) Любовный треугольник, зачем, а главное нафига. Лиам хоть получше Сэйма, но все равно гавнюк, потому что когда они уже начали общаться в бассейне, в обычные дни он игнорировал Мэллери и был верной собачкой Сэйн

No existen palabras que puedan describir con precisión el odio que siento por la imbécil de Mallory.

Este libro fue insoportable. No sólo no hay un hilo conductor en la trama (en el libro anterior pasó lo mismo: te presentan un problema que se intenta resolver en las primeras páginas, después se olvida, y no vuelve a resurgir hasta las últimas 70 páginas), sino que además la historia en sí es absurda y estúpida. Genuinamente no tiene sentido; la autora intenta crear plot twist inesperados y shockeantes, pero en vez de eso genera situaciones insensatas.

Sin embargo, lo que más odié de este libro, y la principal razón por la cual le pongo 1 estrella es Mallory. Yo no puedo creer que su personaje sea real. Leer las decisiones que tomaba fue una de las experiencias más tortuosas y exasperantes de mi vida. Saint la llama “little masochist” and, honestly? I think he’s fucking right. El chabón la estuvo utilizando para conseguir sus secretos, después expuso todo su pasado en frente de todo el colegio (y más tarde incluso le confesó a Mallory que no se arrepentía en lo más mínimo), constantemente la degrada enfrente de los demás, y en más de una ocasión le dijo cosas horribles que la mina excusa diciendo "he’s lying, he doesn’t really mean them" (ejemplo, Saint literalmente dice: “Do you really think I’d fuck this piece of trailer trash? Been there, done that, got the blow job. She’s not worth the trouble, so back off” EN FRENTE DE TODO EL COLEGIO) Y para terminar (por si todo lo anterior no fuera suficiente), el pibe la trata como si fuera su puto juguete, tuvo relaciones sexuales con ella incluso cuando tenía novia, Y no es capaz de respetar los deseos cada vez que Mallory le pide que la deje en paz, ni aunque le paguen. A pesar de todo lo que mencioné, ella le sigue dando bola. Es como que su intención es que el pibe la lastime. Si no, mi cabeza no puede comprender por qué poronga lo sigue buscando.

¿Lo peor de todo? Existe Liam. Liam, un hombre que en más de una ocasión stood up for her when no one else would, que repetidamente la ayudó sin esperar nada a cambio y sin pedir explicaciones, y el hombre que le dijo que está enamorado de ella. Onda es literalmente el hombre perfecto. ¿Y ella igual lo prefiere al otro? Dios, la odio con todo lo que soy. En serio. Odio lo estúpida que es.

Todavía no resolvieron el tema de quién poronga la quiso matar en el libro anterior. Y Mallory ni siquiera menciona ese incidente una vez. Dios, desprecio todo con respecto a este libro.

No hay chance alguna que lea el siguiente libro. La verdad me chupan todos un huevo y ojalá que todos terminen muertos excepto Liam.

1 de 5 estrellas.

MALICE (Angelview Academy 2)
E.M.Snow

POV: h

Mallory and Saint

Must read Saint first.
Continuing right from the cliffhanger ending from Saint.
After being a target, to being protected now betrayed and humiliated in front of the whole student body, Mallory is beyond broken. All her secrets are out. Except for one vital detail, which she's determined to keep. But with having a face from her past in the Academy, will that secret stay between them?
But with recent developments Mallory is prime suspect. She packs up and leaves the Academy. When she gets home she thinks it's best not to return back Angelview. Start a new school where no-one knows her.
Until a surprise visitor comes by and tries to get her to go back. Maybe this person is an ally......"with not coming back you're letting him win, you can't let him win."

So Mallory reconsiders going back, glutton for punishment and all that. These overprivaliged rich bully jerks aren't going to break her further than she already is. She's thick skinned, considering her lifestyle with Jenn.

In returning, she's still not welcomed by the students, they've amped up their hatred for her. Mind you they're only following the one and only highest God-like that is Saint, and queen bee, it girl Laurel, (who shattered her in front of the who student body) like the good little lambs that they are.
Mallory still has a friend in Loni and Henry. They understand why she never answered her phone or texts and don't hold that against her.
She's determined to figure out the mystery of the photo who has a woman resembling her and her mother Jenn. Could it Jenn, before life took a different turn for her?

And now with her past in her face, in the form of a teacher at the Academy, can she cope?
She just wants to forget and move on from Saint, but it looks like he's already moved on from her. Which gives her the extra hatred to (try) and push Saint out of her heart and head.
No matter how she tries to stay away from Saint, they find each other. It's like they've got this push and pull connection. Mallory hates herself everytime she let's Saint near her. He's just a rich, selfish, cruel, sadistic, psycho.
He needs her to still leave Angelview. While certain people are telling her to stay away from Saint.

Then Mallory finds out some shocking news. Stunned is more like it. Just as she finds something horrific.
Who's behind all this?
Who's in that photo?
How & who are they connected to Mallory?

This was such a gripping, concluding part. Yes, you've guessed it, CLIFFHANGER!
Stay tuned for the next instalment, coming soon. Can't wait to see how everything unfolds.
