Her Secret by Ivy Fox
4.0
I read a lot of reviews before deciding on buying this book. Many were somewhat negative regarding the beginning of this story and how the guys treat the MC, Freya. After reading those, I was somewhat hesitant, but I took the dive and bought it anyways, and I have no regrets!
Her Secret, a standalone in the Bad Influence series, was such a great read. The guys were definitely assholes in the beginning of the story, mad and hurt by Freya's apparent disregard for them. And not gonna lie, the first part of the book was kinda tough to read. One of my biggest pet peeves in stories (especially reverse harems) is when the guys are jerks to their girl. But, their cruelty was as painful to them as it was to Freya, and they quickly (some quicker than others) abandon that path when their true feelings start to come to the surface again.
Overall this was a fairly quick read with accelerated plot (it is a standalone, not tons of time for character and plot developments) and some steamy scenes that really kickstarted their relationship. Some aspects of the story weren't as developed as others, but the main issues are all resolved in the end.
Her Secret was an enjoyable read and I will definitely be checking out any future books by this author!
