Publisher's summary

Lucien Valentine must die.

It’s the thought that’s kept me going for four long years. I’ve imagined it, dreamed about it, relished in it. I want it so bad, but the question is, do I have what it takes to make it happen?

Taking a life isn’t for the faint-hearted. Just ask Lucien, he knows.

He’s taken me back to where it all started, and I know exactly how it’s going to go. He’s going to hurt me, and then he’ll marry me off to his millionaire business partner, Marcus Mahony, who has even lower morals than he does.

I can’t let that happen.

I have to get out of here—even if it means finding out exactly what I’m made of—even if it means leaving a piece of myself behind.

I thought the past six months were insane. It turns out that I hadn’t even touched the surface. One thing is for sure, I will never be the same again.

Welcome. To. Hell.

Great ending!

Real Girl is the final book in the Aston Creek High series and what a wild ride it’s been. Slade and Skyla were such a great couple and I enjoyed their friend group as well. This story was action packed, drama filled and I loved the steamy moments.

Stefanie Kay and Nathaniel Gray did a really great job with the narration.

What an epic ending!

This series was fabulous and the ending to everything had so many twists and turns, it kept me eager to keep listening and on the edge of my seat when I did. Book 4 started off with Sky having to endure her horrible kidnapper again and his equally unhinged wife. Sky has to “get in line” or at least not push back with her upcoming nuptials to the gross associate of Lucien. We also have to see Slade realize that Sky wasnt with him and he then makes some poor decisions that everyone regrets. I won’t spoil it but it has a huge impact on Sky and I felt so bad for her (the narrator did an amazing job with the heartache and pain in that moment, I totally almost teared up!).

If you are looking for a plot line that is realistic, don’t read this one haha. Yes its contemporary but Sky has a lot happen to her and she has to do things that make it a little outrageous if you are looking for it to happen in real life haha. But again this is fiction and I loved it all and don’t care all this violence and death happened to this 17/18 year old. I love Slade and Sky’s relationship. How they fight for each other and think about what the other would think about their decisions. Like they would want the other to fight and all that. I appreciated the side characters even more in this one, especially her bestie from her old life we get to really get to know in this book. I appreciated what she tried to do, what she did for Slade, etc. I loved her HEA in the epilogue and that’s all I will say hehe.

The confrontations were crazy, not gonna lie haha. What happened to all the baddies was intense and crazy but again made for an amazing plot and went by way too fast. I wanted moooore. I was so sad as the audiobook went on because I didnt want to say goodbye to these characters. I am gonna check out the other interconnected series I havent read/listened to yet, since we got a cameo or two in this series. Again, don’t give anything away but you get to see the real baddies come out to play but also see Sky and her loved ones all come together, with some additional help, and take them all down. Also the epilogue was fantastic and made me smile so hard! I would have loved for an epilogue more in their future because I became so invested in these guys. Couldnt give this less than 5 stars ❤️

Narration was great. I still liked the female narrator better than the male. I think the only complaint I could give was the male gave different accents to some of the characters, compared to the female narrator. I think the one that kept happening was to Slade’s bestie. Besides that, the characters did a fabulous job emoting in their performances. So much pain and heartache, but so much tenacity and love. I think the audio elevated this story, it helped me connect with the characters as each book went on. I gave all of these books in this series 5 stars so you can tell I enjoyed each one. you won’t be disappointed if you give this series a short 😊

Dark High School Romance

Real Girl by Sheridan Anne is a dark high school romance that I listened to on audio narrated by Stefanie Kay and Nathaniel Gray. This is the fourth and final book in the Aston Creek High series.

I absolutely love Sheridan's books! She did a great job wrapping up the series. I really enjoyed the relationship that bloomed between Skylah and Slade over the course of the series. It was extremely messy, but you couldn't help but root for them. I really enjoyed getting both of their points of views throughout the book.

Stefanie and Nathaniel did an amazing job on the narration. They both really know how to bring a story to life. I look forward to listening to more of her work in the future.

I would recommend this series if you're looking for a dark romance, bully romance, high school romance, or romantic suspense.

Excellent conclusion!

Sheridan Anne has written another heart-stopping book that is an excellent conclusion to the series. I was on the edge of my seat wondering if they would ever get their HEA. Such a whirlwind of drama and action that had my emotions all over the place.

Stefanie Kay and Nathaniel Gray were great narrators. Their emotional performances had it rolling like a movie in my head. Easy to listen to voices.

Fantastic Finale

4/5 ⭐
2/5 🌶️
4/5 🎧

What a finale for this series. I loved how much of it felt like an epilogue, these guys have been through so much, it was nice getting to see them happy too. The first half was another wild ride though, so you won't be disappointed if that's your jam too. I loved watching these villains get their due and Sky, Slade and fam getting some peace. The audio was great, just like all the previous ones. Stephanie Kay is fantastic and such a joy to listen too.

amazing series

Sky and Slade relationship runs deep. How they are connected physically and emotionally. The action, violence, twists and turns and intensity makes this an incredibly interesting story. I wish there was more! Sheridan Anne brings another amazing series to an end.
Stephanie Kay and Nathaniel Gray bring this story toi life. very well done.

Epic Series Ending! Great Story & Narration🎧

Sheridan Anne takes her readers and audiobook listeners for a wild ride delivering this action packed finale to her “Ashton Creek High” series and it is quite the finale, a grand finale. This book picks up where the thirds book, “Wild Girl” left off with that mind blowing ending. Skylah sacrifices herself to save the ones she loves and now she is back to where it all began with Lucien and Maria, who have arranged her marriage to Marcus on her eighteenth birthday, which is rapidly approaching. Slade puts himself in harm’s way trying to rescue her and she is heartbroken over the outcome. Seeing no way out, they will force her to marry a monster, leaving one monster or two if you count Maria for another. Skylah does her best to redirect Marcus, which backfires on her, but with everything she has been through, she is about to give up. This thrilling and exciting conclusion is cleverly plotted, with the perfect balance of drama, angst, some snark and wit, thrilling and suspenseful moments, heartfelt emotions, and a meant to be romance. I loved how much these characters grew over the series and loved the epilogue too. Sheridan Anne, thank you for another amazing series and wild ride. 

🎧📚🎧 And for the fabulous narration, Stefanie Kay continues to knock it out of the park with her incredible performance and Nathanial Gray joins her once again to cover Slade’s chapters and he is equally amazing. Their character voices have been fitting and consistent throughout, sounding believable and just how I imagined they would sound. And the quality of the audio and their performance has been top-notch. They set the perfect tone for the story, captured all the character’s emotions and had you feeling each one. These versatile voice artists are entertaining storytellers and a pleasure to listen to. Their narration enhances this already great story to another level. Thank you for another fantastic listen. 

Real Girl

omg 😲, the beginning of this book had me mad as heck. like can't this poor girl get a break. but I should have known better. she's one tuff cookie and Slate is also I'm glad he didn't give up on trying to save her too. but
I did get scared when It looked like we lost him. hey there were a bit of Unexpected things that happen, But all in all it all worked out in the Inn. The narrators did such a good job with the series I'm sad to see it in

My new obsession

That’s it! I’m officially destroyed!

This book gutted me from the first word. I cried, I laughed, I was shook, I rejoiced, I experienced so much in one book that I didn’t think it was possible to even go through all that!

This is the conclusion to Skylar and Slades story and honestly? I didn’t want it to end! In fact I refuse! I’m protesting!!!!

Our badass heroine, shows her resolve and strength in this book. Her resilience is inspiring. To have gone through what she has and yet come out the other side, not only stronger but still full of love and compassion is astounding. Our man Slade puts his heart on his sleeve. His silent strength, determination by Sky’s side and him letting her grow and not put her in a bubble and smother her is, in my mind, true partnership.

We had some heavy moments in this book, but I love how it was light hearted and humorous when we needed it. That ending!!!! Perfection!!!! Some memorable characters in this book for sure! Being transported into this world with detailed imagery and relatable issues and scenarios just leaves you captivated and unwilling to come back to reality!

There is literally nothing bad I can say about this other than the fact it’s over!

I love this series so much. The narrators were great and did an amazing job capturing the different emotions, giving life to the characters and making me fall for the series all over again.

I feel like I rambled through this whole review, but I’m just speechless and I just love it so damn much and I’m not ready to leave this word!!!!

If you haven’t already, start this series today!!!!
Book 1 Ugly Girl is available now!!!!!
