Carrie Aarons
New Adult Romance
February 18, 2018
If you’re in, you’ll never have to ask. If you ask, you’ll never be in.
Eloise Mason knows what it’s like to live among the privileged. Seek a change from the upper crust society of Europe, she flies halfway across the world for a semester abroad in the one place guaranteed to toss responsibility out the window and provide some good, old fashioned fun; college in The United States.
Except nothing at the picturesque, Ivy-covered university in Vermont appears as it seems. And after a mysterious invitation arrives on her doorstep, curiosity wins over the need to turn her back on games meant for the rich and ruthless.
Secret societies, risky tasks, and an inner circle to rival the royals. But it may just be one American boy who threatens to be the most dangerous endeavor of all.
Colton Reiter defines the word idolized at Jade Mountain University. In fact, he practically rules the roost from the three point line of the basketball court. The college’s star point guard, he is a god and treated as such; professional scouts at every game, teachers looking the other way when it comes to grades, and girls falling into his lap at the snap of a finger. He wants for nothing, or at least that’s what he wants everyone to believe.
But when he meets the sassy girl with the British accent who could care less about his status, her very existence threatens to unveil the skeletons buried deep in the back of his closet.
With stakes this high, and hearts on the line, can they turn their backs on power and popularity before the ivory tower comes crashing down on their heads?
You guys, this book was amazing.
I know, I know, I say this about damn near every book I’ve read, but it’s true. Have you read Privileged yet? Yes? Okay good. No? That’s also okay. But if you did, do you remember Eloise? This is her book, and unlike or maybe like you, I just met her last week and I loved her in Privileged and I loved her even more in Elite. Things to know about Elite; this book takes place a few years after Privileged, so while we do have a small part where we hear from Asher and Nora, it’s not enough to be a big spoiler and you can still read about them after this.
Like the other two Carrie Aarons books I’ve read (I know, only two? I’m working on it) she gives us the added edge and suspense by giving us both sides to the story with alternate POV from Colton and Eloise, we know that they both have secrets and even though they really aren’t relationship type people, but they seem to click really well, fitting together like two sides of a coin. But then on top of that, Eloise is only there for the semester..Seems like there isn’t much of a chance for a future, or will something else stop them all together?
This should definitely be your next read and whats even better? It’s free on KU, so hop on that. But if you’re like me and can’t really afford that monthly $9.99, you can always do a free trial!
Author of romance novels such as Red Card and the Captive Heart Duet, Carrie Aarons writes sexy, swoony and sarcastic characters who won’t get out of her head until she puts them down on a page.
Carrie has wanted to be an author since the first time she opened a book. She loves spinning tales that include dapper men, women with attitude, and the occasional hunky athlete.
When she isn’t in what her husband calls a “writing coma”, Carrie is freeing up her jam-packed DVR, starting her latest DIY project, or planning her next travel adventure. She lives in New Jersey with her husband, who is more than happy to watch sports while his wife plots love stories.
