All I can say is I am glad I went to school over 40 years ago, if this is what happens in school now. The girl bullies are bad enough, but there is also a friend who is not a friend, a group of alpha jocks who get their jollies breaking the non-popular girls hearts. There is graphic sex and dominance in this book. If you can’t deal with that, then don’t read it. It was well written and it tells a story that was hard for me to read as I wanted to call the law on all of them. This is one that you have to be prepared to read and if you can NOT handle depictions of rape, bullying, and assholes, then this is not a book for you.

OMG!! I loved this story from the very beginning. I felt this story brought out so many emotions from me from sadness to excitement to shock. I have never read a story from this author but I will definitely be checking out more of this author’s works. I’m really into reverse harem stories and this one fit that bill completely. It also had a bully to lovers theme which I also enjoy. I can not wait for the next story!

Fun, enjoyable, intense and emotionally moving! Amazing hot chemistry you just want to sink your teeth into! One heck of an amazing must read!

They were best friends who promised each other a forever, who gave their first kiss to each other and wanted to share more firsts.
But then with a blink of an eye it all changed and she lost him.
He couldn’t forgive her and she simply never knew why he left her.. but now one moment on her knees begging and he has her in sights again….
Oh my gosh wowsers firstly I did not expect that ending!!! secondly what an incredible read!!
Reverse harem fans you are going to freaking love this!! it’s both gut wrenchingly devastating, yet beautiful and awe inspiring at the same time.
Rosalie is weak, the girl who’s bullied and belittled at every turn. She hides, she cowers and then she cries. She broke my lil heart. I wanted to take her under my wing and comfort her.
Fox and his boys are gods amongst mere mortals, with the power to make or break you.
Blackmail and coercion give them the ability to control and manipulate anything and everyone.
They are extremely pleasing on the eye in my mind and had me hot and bothered with their alpha behaviour. I would worship them anyday!
Add into that the charged sexual atmosphere between the five of them and oh gosh I’m suprised my kindle didnt catch fire!
K.G Reuss has created a book I will not forget. I feel like I need to fan myself to cool down now and then I want to read it all over again!!
I was so angry reading this book. No one in this story came out looking good at all. They all need therapy. Rosie is a weak spineless girl who should have told her parents, the school, and the cops what was going on. I have no respect for her and even less for the cruel, bullying guys. Ian, Fox, Enzo, Ethan, and Cole. They all deserve to be in jail.
Wow this is amazing read that keeps you on the edge of your seat through out this very dark and angry emotions that are being work d through through Fox and the shy scared and just wants to make it through school. Blackmailing being done to get what the hotshot are wanting and trying to make it through the daysand finding out that their is truth and lies going on and Rosie is trying to get to the truth and this has a major cliffhanger.. I can’t to give more then the 5 stars as I so love this read. Cant wait for the next book.
4.5 stars
This was at times very difficult book to read with the extent of the bullying behaviour involved.
In Ruins as the title suggests will leave you captivated by the unknown secrets, heartbroken by the actions of some, hopeful in the redemption of others.
Without giving too much more away of the story it was a emotional read. It will anger you. It will tempt you. It will leave you wanting more.
The characters are complex with hidden secrets I’m wanting to learn more about, so i can hope to see more of their storylines unfold.
It is a dark read about blackmail revenge heartache and deep betrayal. I need to read more. I want to see where this story will go from here. I really want to find a soft spot for the four men Fox, Ethan, Cole and Enzo who it seems to enjoy making Roselie Bishop suffer. Rosalie does indeed suffer.
Rosalie was once in love with her childhood friend and neighbour however her heart has now been shattered. I’m unsure she will find her happy ever after.
I enjoyed this book and I hope the next book shines a little light on the darkness at Black Fall High.

This story grabs you right from the beginning. Kids! Rosalie is being bullied and Fox what can I say. She shows depth and grows a backbone in the end. This story has so many underlining factors from when they were younger that makes Fox turn against Rosalie. Will they make a turn around?

I absolutely LOVED this book!! It killed me…Rosie showed so much growth as a character and her emotions hook into you. I started out thinking I’d read a chapter or two to start and before I knew it, I was done and OMG I NEED BOOK 2!!! I told K.G. Reuss that I may just throw a fit if I don’t get that soon…that ending!!! It will leave you reeling. Seriously, hold onto your belt because you’re going to be on the edge of your seat. Love it!! 5 stars and 2 thumbs way up….Gimme book 2!! I’m fully prepared to do things ppl only do for a klondike bar…
I absolutely loved this book!!!
I had no idea what to expect but once I started, I could not put it down. I got to 60% and I was torn between being unable to stop and wanting to stop because I didn’t want it to end!!
A really addicting storyline and all the characters are extremely likeable. Even the villains! But only because they play the part so well.
In regards to bullying, it is on the lighter side (compared to other bully books I have read) but the FMC does get blackmailed in to a relationship with 4 insanely hot guys.
And when things start to heat up.. they get extremely steamy!! Holy hotness!!
I have to admit, I spent the whole book waiting for the other shoe to drop. I knew something was going to happen and when it did, my jaw dropped and it absolutely shattered me!! And that ending!!! Gahhhh!!! I need book 2 ASAP!!!!
Such a good book!
This literally blew me away….i’m still in shock from that ending and trying to process what I’ve just read!! Wow this was so good!!!….this was high school bullying at its best. The characters were believable, I liked Rosie a lot (she did annoy me a little at times) but so glad she came out fighting at the end! And those guys…damn they are hot, you have the mysterious and moody Fox, the funny easy going Enzo, the shy quiet Ethan and the confident domineering Cole!! I think every box has been ticked! I did kinda guess what the black book was all about and gutted that the boys would do that to her…..literally can’t wait for book two!! I need answers but I need to see Rosie come out fighting and I’m really hoping those boys fight for her!! Can’t recommend this book enough, it gripped me from start to finish and I couldn’t put it down. Now I need to find other books from this author…amazing!!

I love this book! It’s as real as a twisted bully romance can get.
