Yet she still keeps going, trying to find a way out of her situation. Acen and Layla have an attraction that keeps pulling them closer together, even though they both try to fight it.
OMG Erin hit this book out of the park it was absolutely incredible! The story centers around the Grape Vine Crew that run the school and the town. Then there’s Layla who is forced to move and go to school with the Grape Vine Crew to infiltrate them and find out information on them. There she meets Acen, the leader of Grape Vine Crew. This story had secrets and twists that took me by complete surprise. The story is so well written, it is filled with betrayal, drama, angst and mystery. Acen and Layla have amazing chemistry and were complex characters. This is such an amazing read, I highly recommend it!
This book sucked me in front the very beginning. Its full of twist and turns, enemies to lovers and fast paced. Erin has out done herself with this book and I can’t wait to what comes next with this new series!
Fantastic story! Acen and Layla (Lala) are great together…as are the rest of the crew. This storyline was well-developed and the characters were well-written and very likable. Easy to read and fast-paced. Definitely recommend this book.
Wow. When I first dived into this book I wasn’t sure what to expect as this was a new to me author writing a new genre.
God I’m glad I gave it a shot!!!
By first 10% I was hooked
TThoroughly enjoyed minus a few RH type scenes that are not normally my preference.
Cannot wait to see what happens next with the GV crew.
OMG! The twists and turns in this well written story grabbed my attention from the very beginning and the characters were written with such great detail and depth that I had to read this book in one sitting!
I love all Erin Trejo’s MC books and she out did herself with this new genre. Layla and Acen’s story had many twists and turns that were expected. For a large portion of the story Layla and Acen’s hate each other but throughout the book they can move past their pasts with a great storyline that makes you want to continue reading. Highly recommend! Can’t wait for the next book by this great author.
Absolutely Amazing!!
This book takes you in a roller coaster ride through hell and back.
Layla has been dealt a really crappy hand in life. Yet she still keeps going, trying to find a way out of her situation. Acen and Layla have an attraction that keeps pulling them closer together, even though they both try to fight it.
This is a page turner that will leave your jaw on the floor.
This book has made it as one of my favorites by Erin Trejo. It’s impossible to not be wrapped up immediately in this series. Once the story begins to unfold, it’s fast and keeps your wanting to know more.
This is a dark, gripping and enthralling love story, with a lot of twists and turns that you can’t begin to imagine. It’s full of unconditional love based on a past shared experience, one that has broken their hearts and souls but that themselves can mend, and subsequently heal each other.
A must read. Pick up your copy today…
I voluntarily submitted an ARC review for this book.
What can I say? I had no idea what to expect from this book besides that I knew sine Erin wrote it that it would be epic, and let me tell you it was definitely that. It is an amazing work full of emotions and love, I didn’t know what to expect next. I couldn’t put it down till I knew how it was going to end.
I really liked this book. I felt so many emotions and I was on the edge of my seat. Great characters and the chemistry and love was done so well. I could feel the emotions coming off the pages.
I have to confess, I committed the Reader’s Cardinal Sin with this one, y’all. Yes, I began my ARC of Grape Vine Crew at 11:00pm on a chilly Tuesday night and read straight through, finishin’ up at around 1:30am on what is now this teeth-chatterin’ Wednesday mornin’…But, was it all worth it? H*ll yeah, it was!
I write my reviews, purposely leavin’ out spoilers because, I mean, really? Who am I to bust your bubble? Take away your pleasure of readin’ it for yourself? I’m definitely not someone who’s gonna do that. Instead, I’m gonna tell you about the writer, my friend, Erin Trejo, and why you should go with your gut and read this story even though it is outside E’s normal wheelhouse so to speak.
Those of us who are familiar with Erin’s books up to this point, know that she is a Motorcycle Club (MC) and Mafia Romance writing bad*ss queen! We know she goes dark with most of her stories and more often then not, she takes us a tad bit outside our comfort zones with her hot, alpha males, her kick*ss, feisty females and angsty, deep, soul-burning plots.
Show of hands, who knew she could write such amazingly killer Young Adult/Enemies-To-Lovers/Bully Romance as well? Ahem, cough…I did, it was me! But, for those of you who are new to Erin, I recommend that you buckle up and hang on tight, ’cause my girl’s gettin’ ready to take you on a mind-blowin’ ride! And, as per usual, she’s gonna take your heart in her hands and make you wonder if she’ll give it back by the time the ride’s over.
Get Grape Vine Crew in your hot little hands as soon as you’re able! I promise, you’ll be very glad you did! And keep your eyes open and your ear to the ground folks, ’cause Erin’s got a lot more comin’ to you in 2020 and I, for one don’t want you to miss a second of the good times around the bend!
i think this book had something for everyone. enemies to lovers, bully, dark twisted romance, reverse harem-ish. it was a full throttle read. i love reading books by this author as they are gritty and hold nothing back. lala, was a girl who had life shit on her from on high. all she wanted was to escape it all. the GV crew started out to hate on her, but she fast became an important part of their lives. great read.
Love Ace and Lala
Intense emotional broken heart stopping twisted love story
Grabbed my heart
Ready for more Brody?
ღ It is no secret that I am a huge fan of Erin Trejo’s books
. There are plenty of books by her that I love, but at the same time there is no book in particular I love more than the other .. I just love them all in different ways
Erin Trejo is known for her dark & gritty MC reads now she is opening up new world with bully romance.… Yay her dark mind will take us to the next level
• Layla’s life wasn’t her own, so what do you when your life is micromanaged by someone else? You try to survive the only way you can, & that’s actually what she been doing for as long as she can remember until she came into her life! Layla, she barely feels anything anymore. her heart is hollow & her soul is empty.
Layla is forced to move to & attend school in the Grape Vine gang’s territory. She was sent to infiltrate their crew, & she was told to find out -the inner workings of the Grape Vine Crew. Information that she can attain if she just get into their good graces. The problem is, she doesn’t want to. She doesn’t want to know them & she sure as hell don’t want to be involved in their shit!
Will Layla will risk everything thing for him & his crew ( Acen, Brody, Cato, & Fox)? in the end will it be worth it?
Don’t let the fact that this is a Bully Romance fool you into thinking you know what to come of GV Crew, Layla & Acen story will take you by surprise! It will blow you away!
Oh before I let you go & get your own copy of this amazing read, try to remember when you are hold whatever device you are using to read this crazy good book , That you not to grip it too hard, Cuz you might just break it … There will also be times when you’ll be tempted to throw it across the room.

Quick question for you

Hope you enjoy this read & also always keep in mind this is just my opinion & my honest review Also I wouldn’t discourage anyone from reading this book
Happy Reading ———Paulette Review
Wow! Erin Trejo truly has this way of making you feel like you know the characters whose stories she’s telling, she makes you feel this instant connection to her characters.
I love the tension and chemistry between Layla and Acen!! Brody had me laughing at some of his comments with Acen, Layla and Cato. I also love Acen’s sister Clarissa, she struck me as that type of friend that we need in our lives, the kind we wish we had or that best friend that we already have.
I am loving each book that I’ve had the opportunity to read by Ms. Trejo, I hope that she gives us more of these characters and stories from the Grape Vine Crew!!
This was one dark, emotional and twisted ride. I couldn’t put it down. My heart broke for Layla with all she went through. She is strong even when she’s broken. She finds an unexpected family, who would do anything for her. You’ll will love/hate the bad boys of GVC. I hope there’s more to come.
This was an intense, raw, dark, edgy and emotional story, one that will have you anxious from the first page. Well done Erin, you have brought these characters to life as you follow four young men who live life on the edge as the Grape Vein Crew and Layla a young woman who has been tormented, abused and used becomes an integral part of this crew. Ace is the tough leader of the crew who does things his way and answers to no one. Layla is a feisty survivor who can hold her own with Ace and the Crew, as this tough and gritty woman who has been emotionally scarred by men, is hell bent to get her revenge and make them all pay. This story had so many twists and turns as well as violence, murder, betrayals and secrets. But through all of the drama Ace started out wanting to hate Layla but he sees something in her, and is determined to make her his, as he can’t seem to stay away as he knows she is hiding something and will do all he can to help her. The chemistry between these two is off the charts steamy and emotional. Now hate will turn into something more and these two will get the revenge on the people who have lied and hurt them the most as Layla becomes a part of the Grape Vine Crew forever. This dark romance story is a must read. I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review.
This is my first book by Erin and if this book is any hint to her writing, I am in fire a treat! I love these bully romances and couldn’t devour this amazing read fast enough. Great start to what promises to be an awesome series.
