Endgame: A Dark High School Romance

by J.L. Weil

Some sins are worth the burns. Some love is worth the war. And this time…nobody gets out unscarred.

🔥 KAYLOR

I used to believe monsters were made. Turns out, they’re crafted. Cut open. Broken down. Rebuilt in the dark.
The day they locked me in that room, something inside me snapped.
Not fear. Not despair.
Hunger.
For freedom. For revenge. For the blood of every man who thought he could put a price tag on me.
They want obedience.
They’ll get carnage.
I’m done being the girl who survives. Now I’m the girl who bites back.

⚔️ KREED

Kaylor didn’t disappear. She was taken by people who know exactly how to vanish a girl.
But they forgot one she’s mine.
And I don’t break.
I destroy.
Every lead I follow bleeds into the next—girls sold, bodies buried, and lies wrapped in my family’s name. Donovan Corvo thinks this is just business. He thinks blood makes me loyal.
He’s about to learn the only loyalty I have left is to her.
Whoever took Kaylor will pray for mercy.
They won’t get it.
Because I’m coming with fire. With ruin. With rage sharpened into a weapon.
And when I find her…the world will remember exactly what happens when you steal from a monster.

This is the final book in a morally grey romance with possessive male main characters. This is not a why choose romance. The female main character will only have one love interest. Endgame is a full-length high school dark romance and contains adult themes and descriptions that are suitable for 18+.

Plot: 3.5/5 • Spice: 2/5 ➡️➡️➡️ There’s so much going on. So many damn people. Who were the elite, who were the vipers and who were the ravens got a little confusing. Especially during the heist where they were getting Kaylor back.


Kaylie’s goal was to bring down Rusty and everything that came with him. The trafficking, the book, the auction. I feel like they absolutely lost sight of all that. They do eventually take him out. Yay. Good. Wonderful. But what about the rest?


When Kaylor made a deal with Donovan I expected MORE in the end. Not just a roll over and meh the situation. It makes him almost look like a good guy???


Good until the last 10 pages and then 👎🏻. Disappointed at the grand finale ending. We do get our HEA with Kaylor and Kreed, so that does bring a little happiness. We don’t get any other conclusion with any of the brothers either. 🤷🏻‍♀️

I overall enjoyed the final book. I loved the tension between Kaylor and Kreed and how their relationship developed throughout the book. There were some unexpected twists that added excitement and kept the story moving, even when I thought I had it figured out. It was also great to see characters from the Elite series make appearances, which added an extra familiarity. Overall, it was a strong, entertaining read and I’d recommend it to fans of the Elite series.

Great ending

This book was full of betrayal you didn't know who to trust. Kreed and the twins make me laugh so hard there relationship with Kaylor is brilliant. Rusty makes my skin crawl glad to see the back of him. Can't wait to see what happens with the twins going forward

[Shannon Washburn]

Great trilogy.

Even though this is in three books, I loved it more I thought I would. I’m not a big high school bully romance reader, but this was exceptional good. It was hard to put down.

[Diana Rabatin]

What a page turner I absolutely loved Kreed and Kaylor! Please take us through their college life and let us know that they got married and have babies. I absolutely loved all three books.!

[Gay Peterson]

Thought it was sweet!! Kreed and Kaylor are like two magnets. Just on paper you get the chemistry between them.

OH MY GODDD I WAS WAITING SO LONG FOR THIS BOOK TO FINALLY COME OUT.
i would have most likely rated this book higher if it hadn’t been so long since i had read the other two books but that still dosent mean i didn’t love this book as well. i loved the concept of her being (slight spoiler) kidnapped and doing what she did for her friend. i loved Kaylor and Creeds relationship, they have came so far since the first book and you can truly see how much they love eachother. they deserved their happy ending. the found family is this book is absolutely phenomenal the way rival gangs both come together because of how much they care for Kaylor is so sweet. definitely give this book a try.
