My Stolen Life

A High School Bully Romance (Stonehurst Prep, Book 1)

De: Steffanie Holmes

Narrado por: Ciarán Strange, Tyson Rinehart

Psst. I have a secret.

Are you ready?

I’m Mackenzie Malloy, and everyone thinks they know who I am.

Five years ago, I disappeared.

No one has seen me or my family outside the walls of Malloy Manor since.

But now I’m coming to reclaim my throne:

The Ice Queen of Stonehurst Prep is back.

Standing between me and my everything?

Three things can bring me down:

The sweet guy who wants answers from his former friend.

The rock god who wants to f--k me.

The king who’ll crush me before giving up his crown.

They think they can ruin me, wreck it all, but I won’t let them.

I’m not the Mackenzie Eli used to know.

Hot boys and rock gods like Gabriel won’t win me over.

And just like Noah, I’ll kill to keep my crown.

I’m just a poor little rich girl with the stolen life.

I’m here to tear down three princes,

before they destroy me.

From the author of Kings of Miskatonic Prep, the Amazon top-20 internationally best-selling bully romance series, comes this new dark contemporary high school romance.

wowza

that's one heck of a cliff hanger..... I was a little miffed that it ended that way so I'm totally ready for book 2.... great story line and the steaminess is just right for a first book .... definitely recommend to others

What just happened?! WOW!

I’ve previously read almost all of the author's PNR books. I fell in love with her writing a few years ago. I feel like I’ve “re-discovered” her books. I’ve never been a fan of bully romances up until earlier this year. I decided to give them a try and have found some great ones. I was excited to dive into this one!

Let me tell you, this was NOT what I expected. This book does not start lightly either! It literally a BAM, straight into it, and has you guessing from the very first page. I gasped a few times in that prologue and my brain was racing trying to figure out what was happening. Mackenzie is forced into rejoining her world after many years, having been reclusive for many reasons. She may not be ready, but she sure as heck is going to make them remember who she is. They don’t call her the Ice Queen for no reason. Walking back into the thick of things proves to be a lot harder than she expected.

What she’s facing is not only a school ruled by the reigning “King” of Stonehurst but a blast from her past, a rockstar she’s adored, and an enemy she had no idea she had even made. Her appearance has shaken the very core of the hierarchy of the school> Let alone the people around her both past and present. I want to say so much, and I can’t because it will give it all away! Ugh.

This book had me going what the heck just happened? Gasping and talking back to my kindle. Whatever you think this book will be, throw it out the window and start back again. This may be a bully romance, but not your average one. The heroine in this one has claws of her own. She’ll only take so much. I loved her absolute fierceness and the complexity that is her story. Not to mention the complexity, unpredictability, and intriguing chaos that is the entire story. I'm ridiculously hooked and dove straight into book 2. Why? because of that ending! WHAT?

Audiobook review: I absolutely loved Ciarán Strange and Tyson Rinehart’s narration! Their voices complimented each other. I loved that they put real emotion behind their storytelling. It made the characters come to life. To me, that makes audio so much better. I wasn’t being read to, I was being told a story with what felt like real emotion and reaction. So well done!
