Intense, dark, angst and worth every second of getting lost in this book. This is my first book by C.M. and I am in love. I can’t wait to read Chaos!!!
The book that started my dark romance journey!
This book is a must read if you’re into:
1) Enemies to lovers
2) Reverse Harem
3) Gangs/Mafia
Bernie goes into her senior year calling ‘HAVOC’, the group of boys who ruined her life two years, to get revenge on the people on her list. They agree, but with one catch, she has to be their girl. Bernie reluctantly agrees, gets thrown into the middle of a turf war, and finds herself falling for multiple boys in HAVOC.
It’s seriously such an amazing book, and I’ve been waiting MONTHS for the second one. Cannot wait to binge.
JUST READ THE DAMN BOOK YALL, YOU WON’T REGRET IT.
I just wanted a taste, just a small taste of the story. But like all of C.M.’s books, you can’t stop once you start.
Bernadette really had no idea what she was getting herself into when she called HAVOC. Vengeance and safety don’t go hand in hand. But Havoc knows how to deliver. Just some outcomes don’t always come out as planned. That cliffhanger left a gaping wound out to fester… Looks like book two will be feeding poison to our veins.
Guys. I know I am late to the party BUT HAVE YOU READ THIS BOOK? I LOVE a bully romance and this is like nothing I have ever read before. If you are a fan of LJ Shen or Amo Jones, this series is for you. Dive in and get addicted.
Like I said, I love a good bully romance. This novel took it to completely other level. It was dark and twisted and just complete grit. I loved how raw it was as a read and how the author held back no punches. I can’t wait to read the next novel in the series.
Another phenomenal read by CM that had me hooked from page one. Havoc is a crazy, insane read that will have you loving every minute of this book. Bernadette wants one thing and it’s revenge and she asks the Havoc boys for help, but she might get more then she bargained for. The characters I absolutely love, the Havoc boys are characters that you will never forget. Another truly an amazing read by CM that I absolutely didn’t want too stop reading and the ending had me wanting more ASAP.
There is so much going on in this book and so many different agendas vying for your attention. It was impossible to put down and I can’t wait for the next book.
Fantastic start for a new series
Wow I wasn’t expecting what I read. I mean I knew it was going to be so dark but let me tell you your going to be on a world wind of emotions. Is it weird that I enjoyed every bit of it. Make me question my sanity!! What I especially liked was Bernie she was so consistent with her actions and interaction. Nothing annoyed me more then a heroine who makes stupid decisions or who is so indecisive. I know many might disagree but Bernie knew what she was getting into when she made her decision to get involved with the HAVOC boys. That cliffhanger ending had me like WTF I can’t wait to see what else is in store for this series.
I really have a love/hate relationship with the words ‘ to be continued …’ ! Love that there is more, hate that this book is finished but that I have to wait for the next book. This book was amazing, the story, the main characters, the heroine, … I can’t wait for book 2!
Original story line. Couldn’t put it down! Can’t wait for the second book!
So i totally love this book. It did take me a while to get in to it but not once did i think about putting it down, i would have been a fool. I got in to it slowly and by the time it ended i was so not happy because i needed more now! The way it ended, damn! Talk about reeling you in and leave you wanting more. Im going crazy here just thinking about all the possibilities in the next book.
HAVOC these men are all so different from each other and so much more to find out about them. Right now i like them all but by the end of this series i will have a favourite or two. Bernie, the girl broke my heart. Yes shes strong and resilient but on the inside she is suffering so much.
Bring on more HAVOC im ready for them.
Havoc at Prescott High (The Havoc Boys Book 1) Kindle Edition
by C.M. Stunich (Author)
I borrowed this book via the Kindle Unlimited program and am choosing to leave a fair and honest review.
The end! Oh my god! The end was so… Flabbergastingly, heart-wrenchingly, gobsmackingly, stomach-churningly shocking! I’m still shaking from it! And the promise of the second book in January 2020? Sadly, not fulfilled, so my heart is broken into tiny little pieces.
After being bullied, terrorized and nearly destroyed by the HAVOC gang in her sophomore year, Bernadette decides to call on the boys to seek her own revenge on the people who have worked so hard to destroy her life. They agree, but as always with these boys, their assistance comes with a price. Is she willing to pay it? If it means she can free herself from the self-destructive spin and escape with her remaining sister, Heather, she will pay any price
As dark as the boys are, particularly Vic, they are distracting, appealing, they suck you into the maelstrom that is their world. Ms. Stunich writes some of the deepest, darkest, most beautiful imagery that I’ve read. It creates a world of pain for Bernie, one that is clearly lived through. Sometimes the language is flat out gorgeous, full of a painful beauty. Others? Bernadette can be crass and vulgar, as if it distance us from her.
This story would have worked without the RH or the romance angle. It is just that good. The characters are deeply complex, traumatized teenagers on the bad side of town. They have all been forced to grow up far to fast and far too broken. Surrounded by failed adults who can’t see the young people.
Ms. Stunich has an amazing talent with broken, damaged people. It doesn’t matter the age or the gender. She is able to see beyond the easy stereotypes, to create people you could meet on the street of any town. Her use of language is brilliant. In HAVOC, she uses metaphor, simile and sensory cues to build the sense of oppression, desperation and lost innocence. Awards will one day fill her shelves, nod doubt.
My only complaint is that instead of “calling Havoc” it should have been “Cry Havoc” as in “cry havoc and let slip the dogs of war”
A stellar example of life on the bad side of town and the pain of Generation Z.

What’s this book about? (I’m trying to give as little spoilers as possible)
High school girl Bernadette has been through it all. Now she wants revenge. She has a list and only five boys can help her out. Five boys that made her life a living hell not that long ago. She must pay a price for the deed; she must become a part of their gang.
This was my first C.M. Stunich read. I had heard good things about this book and the cover looked incredibly stunning. I was hooked from page one. Bernie was relatable through all of her struggles and her quest for revenge. I really loved her as a leading lady without a filter! She was incredibly bold at times, I LOVED IT. Also the boys she was surrounded by were very hot, brooding and mysterious guys. Her history with the HAVOC boys was dipped in mystery and HEAT. I couldn’t tell you my ultimate fav of them, but Hael and Vic are probably my top guys! The steam was real, you guys. This author knows her tease and intimate scenes.
This was a long read and it was captivating from page one to the last page. It was an easy, twisted and steamy read for me.
I recommend this read to anyone looking for a broken yet STRONG in capital letters leading lady that’s accompanied by four SCHMEXYYY guys (REVERSE HAREM ALERT!). This story is filled with drama and an extremely hopeless but interesting high school experience. I couldn’t stop reading! I CANNOT WAIT for Chaos At Prescott High. Book 2 is supposed to be coming soon!
OMFG! Such a good book! Between this and another book I just read, I’m so broken! Highly recommend
From the beginning of the book I just kept thinking to myself that this wasn’t my cup of tea (I don’t read a lot of gang/super bad boy themed books) even at the end I still was like it isn’t my cup and tea (theme wise) but GIRL listen to me when I say IT WAS SO GOOD! I can not wait for Chaos to come out so I can read it! I was so sad when the book was over. I even thought to myself maybe I should give this theme more attention. I am a huge fan of this book! I can’t wait to read more about HAVOC especially Oscar lol
Incredible!! This was the first book I read of C.M. Stunich’s and I was totally entranced. Truthfully I thought the blurb looked good but wasn’t really sure about it being in a high school setting, but I was definitely wrong. The book grabbed me right from the start with its suspense, angst and tension. All along the way learning these inner self’s of the HAVOC boys and Bernadette, which was not what I was expecting to uncover. This book was extremely well written for adults of any age and you’d be remiss if you didn’t read it. I am extremely excited for the next book to come out because this left us on a cliffhanger but will make the next one that much more exciting. I reccomend this book highly as it has so many different facets. Thanks for the wonderful read C.M.
OMG! This was an EPIC bully story. I seriously didn’t see that one coming! I couldn’t put this book down. I was so invested in the lives of Havoc. Bernadette does the one thing she can think of to get revenge on everyone that’s wronged her. I’ve never read a reverse harem book quite like this one. I can’t wait to see what happens next because that was a devil of a cliff hanger.
Wow, C.M. Stunich always surprises me. This was yet again an amazing story. Havoc, it and they are sexy, dark, complicated, emotional, violent and so much more. My favorite thing about this particular “bully” type of romance is that the story takes place after her bullying has ended. Don’t get me wrong I love reading bully romance books, but a lot of times the men are over the top cruel with no soft edges at all. This one has all the hard edges, with a bit of cushion thrown in. If that makes any sense? Anyway, ALL of these characters are hardened, all with their own reasons and background stories, they are rough and don’t mess around. But they also all have a soft spot for Bernie that they aren’t afraid to show. I loved that. I loved this book and these characters, there is so much complexity and depth to this storyline. I’m eagerly awaiting book two!
