It's a...Reverse Harem
When Evelyn Maynard receives a scholarship to the exclusive Bradford Hills Institute, she’s determined to make a fresh start. The Institute is world renowned for educating and training Variants – the 18% of the population fortunate enough to have superhuman abilities. As a human, she’s lucky to be admitted.
She’s done with fake identities, running and lying but once again she finds herself surrounded by secrets.
Some she’s been keeping her whole life.
Some have been kept from her.
Some she finds herself dragged into…
Ethan, Josh, Tyler and Alec have some of the rarest Variant abilities Evelyn has ever seen. They fascinate, intrigue and attract her, but is it their abilities, their own secrets or something more that Evelyn can’t seem to stay away from? The secrets they keep could drag Evelyn so deep into their dangerous and exciting world that she’ll never be the same.
And the answers she finds could get them all killed.
Evelyn has spent her entire life running. From what, she doesn't know. She learned to never get attached and never trust anyone. So when she loses the one person she has always relied on, her mother, she is lost. She's alone with more questions than she had before. She keeps to the plan her mother had for her and heads to a small town. When she is accepted into the exclusive Bradford Hills Institute, she is ecstatic. As a mere human, to get a full scholarship is outstanding and just what she needs. Being a science junkie, she can't wait to learn more. What she finds at Bradford Hills turns her life upside down again.
This is the first book in the Evelyn Maynard Trilogy and debut novel by Kaydence. If I could give it more than 5 stars I would. This book blew me away. It's one of the best new RH I've read in quite a while and I think it could definitely become the new obsession in the RH world. While the whole concept isn't completely new, girl with no magic goes to magic school and finds out she's not what/who she thought she was, this book is so unlike any other too. While you may think you know where a couple things are going, it never detracts from the story as you go through it.
Evelyn is smart, capable and independent without being a snot. She's lost so much but doesn't feel like the world owes her anything. She just wants to find answers and survive. Her help in finding those answers are Ethan, Josh, Tyler and Alec. As with any book they all have their pros and cons. Alec can be a bit much at times and make you want to smack him silly but what would we do without our bad boy that we all love to hate?
This book is definitely on the more slow/medium burn side. The relationships develop at a natural pace. There is a ton of chemistry though. We also have some really emotional moments in this book that had me glad I'm not a big crier.
This is one of those books that draws you in from the beginning and holds on even after you have finished the book. It's very rare that I reread books, why would you when there are so many new books out there to be read. But I can tell you now, this will be a book I read over and over again.
