I bought this book during the one of the Stuff Your Kindle Days, I liked the idea and I’ve been wanting to read more dark romance, and this was a short story to read to get into it. I was hoping there would be more action but can see it ended on a cliffhanger just to get us to read the next one. 

This book is based on Everly Walker, and she has had a pretty crappy childhood. First, she lost her parents, the second when she had to leave everything behind to move across the world to live with her only remaining relative which is her uncle. But what was life for, if not for living? So, she kept moving. Then the third thing happened, just as she was about to begin her junior year at the prestigious Blackstone University. Everly caught the eye of not one, not two, but three of the most infamous guys on campus. The three locals from the wrong side of the tracks. Saint, Mateo and Callum. And now that they have her in their sights, she knows there’s nowhere she can hide. There's no escape from the Boneyard Kings.  

I liked how you can tell the four different points of view. When reading why choose, I am always nervous that the characters of similar genders will be blended as one. Each of these men had a very distinct personality that shone through during each of those POVs. You had Saint that was trying to be this bad ass with mummy issues and a heart of gold when he was caring for Everly, and you saw how quick he fell. Then you had Mateo who was already dealing with his mummy issues and that he was a person of colour so was also dealing with racist shit from people who dared to cross him. Then you had Callum who was also dealing with past problems but had to put on the brave face of being the leader and making sure someone has control of the situation because he has never had control in the past. Finally, you have Everly, she is so naive and too trusting of people, but too be fair, if I had those three pushing the same buttons that they were to Everly, I would be as useful as a chocolate fire guard. I liked how she got more confident and wanted to know what the hell was going on. 

I liked the mystery of the storyline; however, I wanted more answers than we got in this book. You could tell that the authors were building the characters and the university and the trauma. But I would have liked more answers – who is the uncle involved in? What happened to the junkyard’s owner? What is the dean’s beef? I just wanted more solid answers than what we got.  

I’m going to carry on with the series because the cliffhanger it ended on was mean as hell as I want to know what the hell is going with the dean and what the plan is.
