Campus Kills and Cold Vengence

by Mikel Wilson

Jennifer survived her first year at Assassination University, but the real test has only just begun.

Still reeling from campus flings and secrets revealed, Jennifer’s world is rocked when one of her trusted companions is critically injured in a mysterious attack. The hunt for the culprit propels her and Chris into the perilous underworld of professional assassins, where the stakes are real and a single misstep could be fatal.

Torn between vengeance and keeping Chris safe, Jennifer will need to use every technique she’s mastered to unmask the villain. But with hired killers tracking their every move, she’ll be lucky to make it out alive, let alone pass this trial by fire.

Can Jennifer balance honing her killer instincts with protecting her heart? Or will a lethal dose of danger extinguish any sparks between her and Chris for good? She conquered freshman year, but Jennifer's sophomore slump could end in tragedy unless she masters the art of love as effortlessly as the art of death.

Son of a * beep! * That was not at all where I thought this book would leave us. I had a sneaky suspicion that those were the identities that would be revealed. And, while I completely understand Jennifer’s choices, I can’t find it in my heart of hearts to blame Chris for his reactions. They faced surprise after surprise, fighting for their lives, while we got to see what made these students top choices for AU. The cliff where this book ends is sudden and steep, and I’m more than a little desperate to discover what waits for us on the other side.
I received a complimentary copy of this book from the author.

Holy hell I can’t believe what I just read that was absolute madness and wow . I’m not giving anything away but read this book.

[Kimberly · Rating 4 out of 5]

Campus Kills and Cold Vengeance by Mikel Wilson is book three in the Campus Life Series. Well after reading the other books I was intrigued where this one would lead. This book was just full of crazy people and interesting situations. What I really enjoyed about this book is how I could see/imagine/understand choices that were made and reactions to that very thing. I really liked reading all the different surprises, the fighting for your life and really getting a feel of this university. I also loved the splash of revenge thrown in. But do be warned that this ends in a cliffhanger and you do need to read the books in order.

Final review:
4 out of 5 stars

I about throw my phone reading this book because of first how much Jennifer was being rude as no other to the Dean and then second because of Chris and Jennifer!!! Like for real you kidding me!!! You have to read and see why I'm all pissed off at both of them. Mikel sure did make me want to scream at them both and smack them lol! I loved it! First the surprise you wait for at the end of book one is revealed and then another one is revealed later in the book! I was like no way!!!! Even though I wanted to throw my phone, I honestly can't wait for the third book to see what is next for their team!

Campus Kills and Cold Vengence is the second book in the Campus Life: Assassination University series. This cannot be read as a standalone.

Jennifer overcame all odds and survived year one at Assassination University. Year two becomes twice as hard. There's so much mystery behind Chris's attempt on his life. Plus more twists and turns she (and I) were not expecting!

I am seriously enjoying this series. Just when I think we're figuring things out, we are thrown into another direction and it's seriously keeping me at the edge of my seat. That cliffy too!! Looking forward to the next book!!

Ok so now its time to see why Jennifer was called to the principals office.
And let me tell you one thing your in for a ride or die experience with this book.
Its filled with twist and turns and takes you on a great journey where you learn to know or characters much more intimate and also learn that not everything is black or white but there is a big grey side.
It took me on a roller-coaster ride and that was so what I needed right now.
Highly recommend this book and so looking forward to what will come out of the talented Mikel
Wilson next. What ever it will be it gonna be something I'm looking forward to for sure.

Another year at Assassin U is here! Jennifer is now a sophomore, and while freshman year had its challenges, this year is becoming more harrowing for her in every moment. Chris is injured, shot by someone unknown. It is Jennifer and the gang's mission to discover who is behind it. Throughout there are many mysteries surrounding the attack, and in the end, the events that transpire are done twist after another. Campus Kills and Cold Vengence was a great addition to the Campus Life series, and with that nail biting ending, I am excited to continue this adventure in the next book!

[Twisted0305 · Rating 5 out of 5]

I absolutely love Jennifer and her gang of misfits! You just never know what will happen next! Freshman year starts off rocky especially with a roommate like Amber Lynn. Then sophomore year takes Jennifer down a whole new rabbit hole full of action, adventure, and emotional turmoil. Jennifer’s world has already been flipped upside down and spun a few times, what will junior year have in store for her? Another year at Assassin U just might be too much for Jennifer to take…… I can’t wait to see how this all turns out!!!!

4.5 stars - rounded up
This is book 3 in Wilson's Campus Life series and ends on yet another cliffhanger to which I love and hate at the same time! Well written and captivating this is a great addition to the series, which should really be read in series order. Some great twists and turns that I didn't see coming and a great cast of crazy characters and interesting series of situations and mysteries abound. Seriously, I can't wait for more now...

This book was given to me for free at my request and I voluntarily provided this review.

First this book turned in a direction I did not see coming (multiple times!!). This is book 3 in the campus life series. We are back at it with Jennifer, Chris, Alex, and Amber Lynn. This group is complete chaos but they work together well as they navigate Assassin University. The group comes together to find the person who shoots Chris. This leads them on a crazy adventure where the possibilities are endless. This is a quick and entertaining read. There is a mix of mystery and romance throughout the story. This book is clean romance only.

[Lauren Barnes · Rating 5 out of 5]

Campus Kills and Cold Vengeance was such a fun book. It’s a great addition to the AU series and such a great continuation of Campus Flings and Killer Instincts. This book expanded the world so much and turned things upside down in the best possible way. I was so excited to learn more about the characters, their backgrounds, personal connections, personalities, and see them grow both as individuals and as a group. As usual Amber Lynn stole the show for me and continues to be my favorite character. The ending was so good and I can’t wait to read book three!

[Paula Sabol (Never Choose Fantasy) · Rating 4 out of 5]

Campus Kills And Cold Vengence by Mikel Wilson is an action packed romance.  This is a tale of assassins and revenge and navigating relationships.  There are also some mysteries and questions they are searching for the answers. 

    I rated this 4 out of 5 stars. The story is a bit slow paced and wordy.  There are times things seem to be repeated and reworded.  Despite these issues overall it is a fun and exciting read.  It's filled with dark humor.  If you enjoy found family and no spice romance you'll enjoy this assassin's tale of love.

[Kerri Vogel]

In this next installment of the AU series there are so many twists and turns. Jennifer's world is turned upside down with one twist after another. The group goes out on a mission to find who broke onto campus and tried to assassinate one of their own and find a lot more than they bargained for. There are a few surprises along the way and some good fighting scenes. Be warned it ends on a huge cliffhanger.

[Camilla Bratt · Rating 5 out of 5]

A bunch of crazies, twists and turns, a dash of vengeance and a cliffy that leaves you reeling. What's not to love?? Shared world series - best read in order - and I realllllly can't wait for the next one. Jennifer has to dive into the action packed drama of this assassin filled school and figure out how to get her revenge while keeping those she loves safe. Love/hate books that leaves you panting for more from a wonderfully horrible cliffhanger.

Jennifer

Jennifer has find her mother after thinking she want alive for her whole life. Now she has to decide if she trusts her to get vengeance for her boyfriends injury. With the help of her friends they'll find the person that hurt him and find more secrets along the way.
This series is short and the characters are very interesting. I recommend if you're looking for a quick read.

[Kristin Lindes · Rating 4 out of 5]

In this gripping second installment, Jennifer finds herself trying to survive her next year at AU. With action-packed, fast-paced thrilling twists and turns, it seems as if Jen and her friends are going to be hard-pressed to survive this one. Jen and Chris's relationship is also a fantastic factor in this book that gives it that bit extra. It's a quick fun read and I really recommend it if you're looking for something a bit different.

[DeeDeeWReads · Rating 4 out of 5]

Jennifer and Chris are finding their way in their relationship still when an event could change everything. Adventure ensues, loyalties will be tested, and will love conquere all? Who knows, guess you better get reading to find out!

There is quite a cliffy, so be warned. The story is fun, some of the characters needy therapy, but I am here for it every time. I look forward to seeing what happens and where this takes all the characters!

[Magdalena · Rating 3 out of 5]

Jennifer and the crew a set off on a mission in search for revenge after they were attacked on campus. Just when you think they have it all figured out, there is another surprise waiting to be exposed.

I enjoyed the look. A quick fun read that made me want to know what the next plot twist was going to be, but then boom a cliffhanger.

Only problem I had was there was the repetition of certain words and phrases.

[June McKibben · Rating 5 out of 5]

We get to see more of Jennifer in this book. After making it through freshman year sophomore year is quite the challenge. After a friend is injured she wants nothing more than vengeance. Her and Chris dive deaper into the achool and if she is not careful their spark can fissle out. This book kept me reading and wanting to know more. Can't wait to see what happens next.

[Joanne · Rating 4 out of 5]

Another installment with Jennifer and the guys and their time at AU. Entering another term its filled with action and drama that keeps you on your toes in this packed book. As ever with these they keep you engrossed but wishing they were just a smidge longer and more in depth as theres so many times you find yourself grabbing onto your kindle wanting more!
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

This book took us through a whole lot of twists and turns. It had things happen that I never would of seen coming. Jennifer's boyfriend Chris gets shot when they are thrust into the underworld of professional assasins. You will be kept on the edge of your seat the whole time and will try and figure out what's about to happen next but let me tell you it might not be what you are thinking.

This book keeps you on your toes! There are so many twists and turns, I didn't know which way to look. Jennifer is just starting her second year at the Assassin U when her boyfriend is shot. While he is in the hospital recovering Jennifer and the gang try to figure out who the shooter is. I had no idea where things were going in this book. I cannot wait to read what happens next!

Campus Kills and Cold Vengeance by Mikel Wilson is the second book in the 'Campus Life' Series and wow. This book certainly continues with the first and keeps the blood pumping and the mind invested in this awesome series!!! What an ending though... kinda need the next installment, like yesterday. This one will be hard to wait for. Loved it and definitely worth the read!

[BLT · Rating 4 out of 5]

Jennifer is awesome, I love her character development and her fisty friend group.
I apricate all the turns and the roller-coaster of adventure (yeah, that's the word I am going with) that this story takes us, but what always turns my tummy is the LONG DROP OFF THE EDGE at the end.
So put your hands in the air and scream your head off while reading this wild ride!
Yeah, can we go again!?!

[Belinda Clemons · Rating 5 out of 5]

I'm really loving this series. Jennifer starts a new semester at Assassin U and things start out with a bang when she meets her mom and Chris gets hurt. I really love Chris and the way Jennifer wants to stay and fight beside him and protect his as well. This book also ends with a bang I can't wait for the next one to see what happened.
