Unapologetically f*cked up. Heartlessly cruel. Broken beyond repair.
Corvus, Rook, and Grey – The Crows.
Bred in a world of gang wars, violence, and secrets, they rule the bloody town of Thorn Valley and all the people in it…too bad for me I’ve never been good at kissing ass or keeping quiet.
Even if their savage spirits awaken something inside of me I thought was long dead, I can’t break. I won’t.
They think they scare me, that I’ll run and hide, but the joke’s on them. The Crows aren’t the first monsters I’ve faced, and they won’t be the last. There are worse evils out there waiting to take their stab at Ava Jade Mason.
I say let them try. I’m tired of running. Tired of holding back my darkness. Thorn Valley isn’t ready for a new boogie man. Too bad I’m already here.

I can honestly say that this book was unlike any I have read before. At first you think it will be a high school bullying story when you read the synopsis but it is oh so much more than that. This isn't a book about regular run of the mill teenagers. We are talking about lethal, smart, cunning, sex crazed people who will do whatever it takes for family and for their own survival. They all have their own twisted moral code they live by that will keep you turning the page. This was a deliciously different story and I cannot wait to pick up from a great cliff-hanger in book 2.

“You’re a monster,” she spat, her harsh tone and curled upper lip disguising the truth her body couldn’t hide from me. She was fighting the same indecision I was. Unsure if she wanted to fuck me or bite my head off.
She shivered as I leaned in, putting my mouth at her ear.
“You’re damn right I am.”
A bitter grin pulled at my lips. Fuck. I couldn’t remember the last time I’d smiled.
“You should run, little sparrow. While you still can,” I warned, unsure I’d even give her the chance to if she tried.
“And if I don’t?”
“Then I’ll swallow you whole.”
Elena writes stories full of feisty heroines and unforgettable heroes. She may also have a small thing for bad boys and often gravitates towards the darker things in life. When she comes out of her writing cave, she can be found obsessively rearranging her bookshelves, drinking an unreasonable amount of wine, or cooking overly fancy meals for her family and friends.
