About this book
All I wanted was to keep my head above water. To survive long enough to hit my 18th birthday so I could escape the nightmare that my homelife had become. But all of that was turned upside down the moment they showed up.
The best friend from my past. The surly brooder. The kindhearted nerd. The king of campus. The dark one.
They say they’re here to give me a fresh start in a place where I’m safe, warm, and cared for. And I can’t deny the pull I feel to all five of them. The buzz that lights beneath my skin when they touch me. And for the first time, I feel like I might belong.
But not everything is as it seems. These guys have secrets. Ones that will rip my world wide open. But when a dark evil begins stalking us, we’re all in for the fight of our lives.
Book one in a new paranormal why-choose reverse-harem romance trilogy from Amazon top 20 author Tessa Hale. Fated mates, powerful supernaturals, and an evil who is out for them all....

Omg!!!! Omg!!! Omg!!! This book is fantastic! I am so at awe and at a loss of words to truly describe this book because I was left speechless at the end. The storyline is awesome and unique, and it flows so well through the book. I never once got tripped up, bored, lost in it, or wanting to stop. I actually couldn't put it down, and it was almost a fast-paced read for me because I was so addicted to the storyline. The plot never jumbles around or has any holes. The characters are amazing, and...

That cliffy... My Personal Ratings: 5 Stars: Loved it! Couldn’t put it down or obsessed about it...

One of my favorite new authors I found in the last year is @tessahalewrites 😍 She writes Fantasy with Why Choose and they are such fun reads and just so comforting when you need a quick read to just fall into. My first series by her was Supernaturals of Castle Academy. This follows the story of Leighton and how she finds herself, love with multiple different men, and her own power as well as overcoming her feelings of not belonging or being enough for those around her. As someone who struggles...
