Publisher's summary

Dear Mom,

Why wasn’t I enough? Why did you and Dad forget you had me to take care of and love? I miss you.

Do you even know where I ended up? Let me tell you.

At the gates of Hell.

And I wish I was being dramatic, but Darkwood Academy is just that. A literal Hell for me.

I’m constantly bullied and tormented by the students here. And they’re relentless in their pursuit to get rid of me. All because they take directions from the Kings of Darkwood.

Yeah, I laughed too. Who calls themselves that?

But Daxon, Mason, and Colton are three guys who have made it their mission to make my life hell. They run this school, and I seem to be in their way. Why not get everyone to gang up on me?

I just wish you were here. I have no one to turn to, no one to talk to. You selfishly left me. Left me live to this life alone.

And that’s what I am, Mom. Alone.

I hope you’re watching over me from above. I know I’m looking up to you.

Because now more than ever, I need a guardian angel.

Love,

Phoenix

PHENOMENAL!!

I could not stop listening to this. I never knew what to expect through the entire story. By far my favorite of yours Lynn Rhys. Rachel Edwards did a fantastic job narrating as well. You two make a wonderful pair. CANNOT WAIT UNTIL BOOK 2!!!!

Good story

I enjoyed the book but the narrator was so bad! She had moments that she couldn't get the words out and didn't change her voice for the guys. It's too bad because with a good narrator this book would have been great!

Great book, terrible Narrator

Book was great. But the narrator was TERRIBLE! Stuttering lines, what she was narrating was matching up to the book on my Kindle. You could tell her was making up her own lines because she misread. Words were jumbled some places. Long pauses where she misread. The auto was muffled. Loved her voice though.
