Every single time I saw her, I wanted to hate her.I wanted to make her pay for leaving me.And I did. I made sure that she was embarrassed and uncomfortable. Until her secrets came out. Now all I want to do is protect her. She was mine once. Can she be mine again?Or are we all fighting a past we can’t get away from?
Congratulations, Erin Trejo, for writing such a brilliant masterpiece of pain, brutality, and persevering love. I do not say that lightly. This is not a light hearted affair, but a total wallow through mud and blood and guts that leaves the heart raw and until the storm finally breaks.
Well done.

Fabulous follow up to book one. I Really loved book one but this might be my favorite of the series. I laughed, cried and got so frustrated with the secrets trickling out. So many twists and turns that this story kept me glued to my kindle. The manipulations and lies had me about ready to throw my Kindle in frustration. Callan might be my favorite Alder brother and when paired with Shane they are unstoppable. I can’t wait for Knox’s story!!!
Second book in this serie and I’m not disappointed.
Callan is difficult to love and difficult to hate.
Shane has kept secrets for so long.
Really loved the characters in this book.
Great!
Oh my Gosh. The two main characters in this story were made for each other. Callen and his brothers run the town. They are mean and vindictive and think they are entitled to everything. Shane is a girl with her own problems and worries and secrets. Will all the secrets be exposed and will they still be able to work things out or will everything blow up in their faces. This book comes out April 11th, to find out all the answers to these and other questions, pick up a copy of “Stay With Me” by Ms Erin Trejo. If you like this book you might want to check the first book out also, “Dance For Me”. There will also be a third book in this series coming out in the future. Please enjoy. Love Erin Trejo’s writing so much.
I absolutely love the Alder Brothers and their sassy women!!
The Alder Brothers have lived an unconventional life. Being apart of the founding families means power and with that comes dark bad s**t. They don’t let outsiders in and will stop anyone trying to hurt them and the few they hold close.
Callen and Shane have history together but Shane has a few secrets and when Callen digs further in her background trying to figure them out what he finds has him seeing red.
After being torn apart will they get a second chance at things or will they be torn apart again forever??
This book is part 2 of the Callahan brothers and I love every moment of this book.. you did great erin loved every moment…

Callan and Shane have not had an easy life. Both came from a horrible life at home. They had a young love that got torn apart. They finally get another chance and the past keeps coming back to bite them in the a**. They fight and work through it all.
This book was a little hard in some places for me since I could relate to some parts of it. This is a well written story and it doesn’t blemish on the hard parts. A standing ovation for Erin Trejo for another remarkable book

Stay With Me is book #2 in The Alder Academy Series. Just like Book #1, it delivers lots of angst, passion, drama, and the grittiness that Erin Trejo has become known for writing. It is a slightly dark, bully romance with wonderful characters that are interesting to read about. If you want a quick, entertaining Bullymance with a bit of intrigue and darkness, this is your book and a great Series to invest in! I’m definitely looking forward to book #3! 4 Stars!
This book was amazing. Life can be cruel in many different ways, emotions were high in this book. I could not seem to turn away from this one.
No one does a dark romance quite like Erin Trejo. Well written great story and characters. You can follow along without having read the first book but it will give a much better picture if you start with book one.

Three brothers and Shane…what could go wrong? I really disliked the cocky attitudes of the brothers at first, then remembered that this is academy/school and it has been a while since I’ve attended. The plot thickened nicely and the ending made me happy, and not because it was over. I loved the name Whisper…I missed book one and will now go back to read that, but for the most part, I worked it through like a stand-alone story. Well written and a fun wild ride. This was an ARC copy, a first for me, too. Having lots of time has enlightened me to some amazing authors, and Erin is one of them.
Shane and Callan have a lot of secrets, and when they come to light, it’s an inferno!!! Couldn’t put it down!!!
Lies or Heartache?
What a story Shane and Callan have.
Communication is key in any relationship–no matter how toxic the relationship may be.
Erin writes so that you feel you are actually part of the story.
HEA for them.

Wow! I’m new to this series but it blew my mind. Stay with Me is a dark bully romance. These types of books might not be everyone’s favorite but I’m slowly adding them to my collection.
I have to admit I was stunned to think I was not going to love this book. Through this book my feelings were scattered and well I fell in love with Callan. This book kept me guessing throughout. I love the way Erin writes, she makes you feel that you are apart of the story. This book was NO exception! I’m really not a fan of this genre but I am starting to rethink my opinion. Being this is the 2nd book in this series it brings ALL of the feels. Their is NO skirting on the drama or the twists that come with these brothers. A really good book!

This was a perfect follow-up to the first book in the series. It has the same intensity you would expect while managing to throw the most unexpected twists.
In this book, we get to experience the second chance romance of Callan and Shane. Secrets threaten to tear them apart. Past hurts come back to haunt them.
Can they figure out how to overcome all odds to stay with each other?
Absolutely wonderful book and highly enjoyable addition to the series!
This was another fantastic dark bully romance addition to the Alder Series!!! Shane and Callum have a past that is complicated; a love/hate relationship. The book keeps you guessing from the very first page. Absolutely loved this book cannot wait for the next book in this series.
OH my gosh, the Alder Brothers just keep blowing me away. I am not usually fond of Bully books but there is just something about the brothers that pulled me in. Ms. Trejo has a flare for words that makes this storyline and the characters simply come to life. Her style is so unique and vivid that the scenes seemed to jump off the pages and play out right before me instead of just in my mind. Kudos for a truly exciting read.
Callan and Shane were a couple at one time, well until dear ole Dad broke them up. But with Dad now gone, is it possible for them to reconcile? Especially after Callan learns about something in Shane’s past that she has kept a secret from everyone. A secret that Callan can’t deal with. A secret that causes him to torment and humiliate her every chance he got.
Boy oh Boy does the book take you on a heartbreaking, emotional ride with Callan and Shane’s story. Especially when another outsider comes in and tries to destroy the brothers, all kinds of pains and even more family secrets come to life.
2 Thumbs Up and 5+ Stars for an exciting addition to the Alder Academy Series. A Must read series in my humble opinion and may I say this reader is anxiously waiting for book 3 and Knox’s story.
ღ I was gripping my kindle so tight, I thought that I might crack it. I couldn’t put this book down
At this point anyone who truly know & enjoys Erin Trejo’s books should be prepared for anything! … this woman still can shock me with her twisted mind
Out the three brother I thought that Callan was my favorite, but for hot second, I will admit to you I had doubts about his sincerity & true commitment to Shane
Callan seem to had changed somewhat in this installment to a dark & brooding
We know from Steele’s book the reason why Callan & Shane were no longer together, but holy guacamole, the secrets that Shane has kept for so long. It’s a pure miracle she still standing after all that she has endured.
Erin left us with a teeny tiny twist lingering in the air, honestly, I can’t wait for Knox’s book! I need more of these Alder’s men
Hope you enjoy this read & also always keep in mind this is just my opinion+ Also I wouldn’t never discourage anyone from reading this book.
Happy Reading — Enjoy ……. Paulette Review
