Beautiful Nightmare by Leila James
5.0
Leila James is the Queen of the chapter cliffhangers.
ALL HAIL THE QUEEN!
Once again, Leila James brings it. From page 1 you are submerged and taken on an emotional ride. If you’re expecting to read a few chapters here and there you are sadly mistaken. So do yourself a favor and start and end this in 1 day. This book is addicting.
It’s not easy to talk about this book without giving anything away. Hawk and Lux have a past. It’s a past that almost destroyed their lives. Neither was expecting to live across the hall from each other at college and now they have to face their past. Lux is getting her life back on track but Hawk is seeking revenge and has Lux in his crosshairs. And be prepared for a humdinger of a plot twist.
And for those of you who are fans of the Rosehaven Academy series those characters make brief appearances. But this book is a stand alone
This book is the first of the Shadow River Elite series of a new adult bully romance and is everything I could ask for in a college new adult romance.

“I swear to God. All you want to do is keep stabbing at me, Keep inflicting all these wounds that will eventually leave me so scarred I won’t be able to function.”

“The only thing you should worry about protecting from me is your heart. Because I’m gonna fucking steal it. Even if you don’t realize it yet, you’re gonna be mine. Every piece of you.”
