Be careful what you wish for . . . Barely seventeen and I'm already suffocating. Since my mother's death, my father has basically checked out, leaving me to raise my brothers out in the New Mexico scrub. All I want is a little distraction from the monotony of my pathetic life. When two mysterious guys show up at the diner where I work, I think my wish has come true. Until they start giving me a hard time. I've learned that pretty and poor is a bad combination; it just seems to bring out the bully in some people-like those two alpha jerks. Something about them twitches my internal antennae, but I brush it aside. I mean, I'm never going to see them again. Right? Then they appear in an alley one night to either rescue or kidnap me (I'm still not sure which) before disappearing. I put the bizarre encounters out of my mind because I have bigger problems to worry about: like that elite military academy that's been pursuing my gifted little brother. When one of their cadets shows up in my small town, he's an instant sensation. And just happens to be one of those mysterious guys. Coincidence? Mama said there's no such thing, and to always trust my instinct. But that might be kind of hard, because every time I'm around Cadet Davenport, my gut starts flip-flopping on me . . . and my heart. Can Kate Connelly keep it together long enough to stop Cadet Davenport's mission? She's about to find out. And-once again-how suddenly life can be split into the before and after. The Academy Saga is not your typical paranormal romance. It's a sweet and dark romance packed with secrets and thrills that will definitely give you all the small-town romance feels! Order your copy now and get in on all the angst and intrigue of this Enemies to Lovers Romance. A three-time Readers' Favorite Five-star book series.

Kate is too young to be a mom, but when her mother passes away, her father doesn�t leave her much choice except to take care of her brothers. When a couple strangers come to town, it is fast gossip because it�s a small town. Kate got a surprise, however when she finds they are wanting her brother Drew for a boarding school. And one of the guys, Pete seems to have his eyes set on Kate.
This is a really good story, with some Suspense and a bit of mystery. There�s a lot going on, and a lot of detail especially in the first part of the book that makes it kinda slow for a while. But gets better as the story goes on. Author C.J. Daly creates interesting and intriguing characters who develop well as the story unfolds. I really like Kate and her brothers, especially the little one, he is adorable. We learn a lot about the three over the course of the book and I really enjoyed getting to know more about them and their life. I felt bad for Kate because she has to grow up fast. But it was enjoyable as well as intriguing to know them and their purpose. A lot of research has gone into this story as well, and Daly does a fantastic job writing this story in a way that it keeps you on the edge of your seats because you want to find out what is going to happen next. It�s a pretty long book so hang with it, you don�t want to miss a thing that�s happening. If you enjoy a good suspense, you will enjoy this one. This is Four Stars for me.
