When Sinners Play

An Enemies to Lovers College Bully Romance (Sinners of Hawthorne University, Book 1)

De: Eva Ashwood

Narrado por: Amber Lee Connors

Sin isn’t supposed to feel this good.

I never wanted to come here.

The scholarship to Hawthorne University is my ticket to a better life, but I don’t fit in with these rich, privileged students.

I’m the daughter of a drug addict. A girl with a half-remembered past. A foster kid who’s seen too much of the wrong side of humanity. My tattoos are my battle scars, and my heart beats for no one.

Until I meet them.

Gray, Declan, and Elias.

The Sinners.

They run this school, and one day, they’ll run this whole city. They snap their fingers, and the world falls at their feet. They breathe a word, and that word becomes law.

I’ve been numb my whole life, but when they touch me, sparks dance across my skin. For the first time in years, I feel.

I feel so much.

Confusion. Desire. Anger. Need.

Too bad there’s only one thing the Sinners feel for me.

Hate.

Note: This is the first book in the Sinners of Hawthorne University series, a new adult reverse-harem bully romance. It contains violence, dark subject matter, and steamy sex.

If your a fan of bully or reverse harem you will enjoy this book.

I received this ARC from the author.
Let’s me just say that I love Eva Ashwood writing style. I didn’t realized that I like genre bully or reverse harem until reading her books.

The book had me hooked from the first chapter. Sophie suffered from tragedy losing the only person who ever loving her. When choosing a way to numb the grief she meets a hot guy that she has amazing one night stand with TWICE. Finally, when Sophine turns 18 she able to exit foster care system leave her harsh and abusive world behind. Her Social Worker offers her a chance to start a new life on a full scholarship to prestigious university. As soon as she gets there things starts to go left. Especially, when she sees the same hot guy she had a one night stand with TWICE.
Sophie is determined to make the best of it with using life skills that she’s learned. Get ready for some twist, turn, and hot sex scenes that only Ms. Ashwood can give.

This book has emotionally-filled dark romance, bullies, drama, and suspense. I definitely recommend this book. Book 2 comes out in 8 days and with that cliffhanger ...I just can’t wait. If your a fan of bully or reverse harem you will enjoy this book.

I also recommend you read Slateview High and Clearwater University and you’ll be a fan too.

So many feelings...

Story: Sophie, Grey, Declan, Elias ... Max

First I gotta say, I'm not huge on bully romance. But I was hooked from the beginning on this series. I love Sophie's perseverance. I love that she doesn't back down. I had all sorts of feelings by the end and I had to go on to read the next book even though I listened to this one.

Narration: Amber Lee Connors... Loved the narration. Can't wait to hear some more from this narrator.

Hot

The ending is crazy and I need the next one now! Some think female lead is weak but she is not.

Good Story

This book started slow, and I nearly put it down, but something told me to keep reading. I told myself I'd give it a few more chapters. The story finally starts to draw my interest and then I was hooked. Once the bs slowed down and you got more into the characters I found myself drawn to Gray. Not so much the other two, you could almost do away with them and make this a regular one on one love interest and be just as good. He overpowers the other two with his presence.

Eva is a Genius! 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

I got totally hooked from the begin. Once I started I just couldn’t stop! The heroine was really strong willed and determined which make the book absolutely amazing 🥰🥰. The narration was 5-star as well. Can’t wait for book 2😩😩. Might have to read the rest.
