Hoax

The Academy: The Scarab Beetle, Book 5

By: C. L. Stone

Narrated by: Megan Tusing

From USA Today best-selling Author, C. L. Stone, listen to Hoax, the fifth book in The Academy Scarab Beetle Series.

Someone tried to kill Kayli Winchester. That someone is going to pay.

After going overboard and nearly drowning, Kayli regroups and joins Axel, Corey, Brandon, Marc, and Raven back on board the Lucienda. This time, she's brought reinforcements. Liam and Henry join the team in an all-out hunt for a killer. It can't be too hard; there's only so many places to hide on a cruise ship. But the number of suspects is climbing.

Tensions are high, and everyone is on alert, but along the way, there's way too many distractions - very hot distractions. Kayli's done hiding her feelings. She's showing her hand, come what may. She's never held back before she met this team - why start now?

But when one of their team members disappears, all clues point to mutiny. Is the team going to fracture because of her? Did someone throw her overboard because of jealousy?

Kayli refuses to believe it, but she'll have to provide proof before the murderer finds out she's still alive and comes back to complete the job.

Deadly Cruise part 2

This book starts where Accessory left off. After surviving being thrown overboard Kayli and Blake return to the boat to find out who tried to kill them and why.

With reinforcements in the shape of Liam and Henry joining in to hunt a killer everyone is a suspect including Axel and the guys.

Questions abound! Is the team going to fracture because of her? Did someone throw her overboard because of jealousy?
Can she remain with the team and guys she cares deeply about or will the Academy put a stop to it.

Tensions are high, and everyone is on alert. Everybody needs to work together to stop a murderer. Sacrifices will need to be made before the team can look to the future.

A good end to the Scarab Beetle series for now I still want to know what has happened to Will and how Kayli, Axel and the team will make their relationship work in the long run. Come on CL finish the story....

Warning-This is not the final book in the series

I thought this would be the final book in the series as the audible release was so long ago but unfortunately it’s not. According the the authors website there is another book called Tempest being released December 2019 so who knows when the audible release will be. I hate it when authors take so long in between books. By the time the next book comes out on audible I will have long forgot about this series. In regards to this book in particular it’s the best one in the series. Hopefully the next book is the last as we still have no idea what happened to Will and her relationship with the guys was just heating up. Would have given 5 stars if it wasn’t for the not knowing there is yet another book...

slow

the story was kind of slow. if you have read the ghost bird series this one will be boring but with the sex ghost bird was missing. also this series make improper use of pronouns.

Amazing as always!

This series just has me so captivated! I love how the story keeps getting better and better every time.

Love the narration!

Excellent story and amazing narration. I could listen to the narrator speak all day long.
