Publisher's summary

Rich boys don’t fraternize with the help.
They don't torture the help.
They don't crave the help.

For as long as I can remember, my mom and I have lived on the edge of ruin, so when she finally gets a decent job offer, she moves us cross-country to take it.

Who cares if it means working as a live-in housekeeper for a man wealthier than God? The paycheck is good, and it comes with a roof over our heads.

She even manages to get me enrolled in the fancy prep academy his son goes to - the kind that spits out future CEOs and politicians like a vending machine.

But this new town has a few things my old one didn’t....

Like secrets that could get a person killed, and four of the hottest, meanest guys I’ve ever met.

I might live in their world now, but I am not a part of it, and they’ll do whatever it takes to remind me of that.

We go to school together, live together, and share a dangerous secret, but as far as Lincoln, River, Dax, and Chase are concerned...

I’m just the help.

Author's note: The Help is a reverse-harem high-school bully romance, the first book in the Kings of Linwood Academy trilogy. It contains cursing and sexual situations.

Very good story

I just wish there was a male narrator too. There are four male counterparts to the female lead. It needs a male voice too.

Reverse Harem Bully Romance

Another gem from Callie. The narrator did a pretty good job with all the voices. The story line kept me intrigued from start to finish. Our story begins with Low moving with her mother to the north east. Her mother was hired to be the maid/ house keeper to a wealthy couple. Low and her mother get to live on site. This is where Low meets the bullies- River, Dax, Linc & Chase. Linc is the couple's son and the rest are his best friends. Low is the poor girl at a rich school and the boys make sure everyone treats her like crap. As typical with this genre, something happens to bring the h & H(s) together and start a friendship. In this book its a mystery & tragedy that they need to solve/ overcome. Just when everything looks like its going to be fine, something really bad happens that tears the h & H(s) apart and leaves this book in a huge cliffhanger. Audio Obsession Review.

still hooked

this 2nd time I have read this book and it's still has me hooked..

Loved it!

This is the first book in the Kings of Linwood Academy a Reverse Harem High School Bully Romance. This is a great introduction to this Series. The characters are great and intriguing. Harlow is a strong and beautiful character. The boys, Lincoln, River, Dax and Chase, are ruthless and unpredictable. I love Harlow's Mom. The storyline is captivating and fast-paced, filled with mystery and suspense. This first book ends with an unpredictable cliffhanger, and now I can't wait for the next book in the Series, The Lie. Amanda Stribling did a great job with the narration. She has a beautiful voice, easy to understand. #AudiobookObsession

Decent

Okay so I loved this book by the end. There wasn’t much romance and nothing really happened sexually until the end. I can’t tell if she was set up and used or if she was actually cared about, let in just enough she doesn’t question things as they are. I find the relationship between mother and daughter weird. Daughter curses way too much as unnecessarily in my opinion. I am continuing because the ending is explosive!!!

DAMN CLIFF BUT WELL WORTH THE JUMP

This was my first book from this author and wont be my last. I loved this story. It grabbed me instantly. The story reminded me alot of Penelope Douglas stories as well. Reverse harem is one of my new favorites.Not only is there the drama of being the girl in the rich persons house, but being picked on and lusted after and then protected by some pretty amazing hot boys. The suspense and mystery kept this going to a new direction as well. So I can see alot more of the story needs to be told. This is going to be a great ride. Great narration throughout the story. very well written with strong characters too. I cant wait to continue this saga. I highly recommend it.

I'm hooked and shooked

This story had me hooked from the beginning. I have read and listened to a lot of bully romance stories. They can sometimes be predictable but this one caught me off guard. The narrator did an excellent job as well. I can't wait for book two. I have a theory on who is behind everything and why. If the rest of the story is like book one then I may be proven wrong.

Loved it!

I loved this story and even though I know I shouldn't I really love Lincoln. There are some big twists I didn't see coming and can't wait to read more.

I thought the narrator did a good job. I enjoyed listening to her voice and she was consistent.

That Betrayal 😧

Linc, Dax, Chase, and River have just made an enemy of Harlow. How can she ever forgive this 4 boys who have tormented her and whom she came to eventually care for. Looking forward to finishing the series and see how Harlow can forgive and maybe possible love these guys again.

Awesome story!

Awesome story and the narrator was great. I highly recommend thus book and looking forward to the third book in the series.
