Bully Target

Vincenzo Elite High School #1

by Moira Barretti

The moment I set foot in Vincenzo Elite High, I can’t help but feel like I shouldn’t be there.

Still, I’m sure I can survive my senior year and ignore the rich kids who sneer at me because I’m the daughter of a maid and a chauffeur.

Until I catch the attention of the hottest and most dangerous boy at school.

Oliver Martinelli seems intent on making my life miserable and turning me into his next conquest.

But the last thing I’m going to do is let my bully win.

I’ll find a way to get him to leave me alone, even if I have to fight my growing attraction to him.



This is the first installment in the Vincenzo Elite High School duet. It is not intended for readers under eighteen years of age and ends with a cliffhanger.

234 pages, Kindle Edition

Harper is nervous yet happy for her parents as they have moved to a brand new house that is provided by their employee as her mother has gotten a job as a maid and her father the chauffeur for a wealthy couple. The book starts with Harper arriving at her new school and ends up catching the attention of the school hottie Oliver Martinelli. Of course, what happens though is that the daughter of her parent's new employer has a major crush on Oliver and doesn't want Harper standing anywhere near her crush and doesn't want Harper to get in her way. The thing is Harper just wants to get through the high school year and Oliver isn't even her type. Yet he seems to want her and will blackmail and bully her and even get her into trouble with her parents when things start to go missing and rumors pointing to Harper come to light. Harper knows something is up with Oliver and sets to follow him, looking for a way to get back at him for his bullying but what happens when she learns a dark secret about Oliver, that if blown wide could ruin the Martinellis and a few others involved? I have to admit I did not see this ending coming and what a major cliffhanger which has now made me want to read Book #2 when it is released as I was like OMFG no way. I have to admit though this book was slow to get into as I found both the main characters of Harper and Oliver a bit bland and super frustrating the cliffhanger ending made up for it.

This was my first book by this author and it wont be my last! this was amazing, full of intrigue and sexual chemistry between the main characters of Oliver and Harper. I really liked the character of Harper, she is down to earth and realistic. I like the way she stands up to Oliver despite their attraction. Oliver meanwhile is full of mystery. The first day he seems to like her and be attracted from a distance, then he proceeds to bully her and by the end of this book you get the feeling he is trying to protect her. I also love the Mafia hints in this story. Cant wait to see where the author takes this in the next book. I really need more from these characters. 5 stars!!! Highly recommend.

This book has all the drama and angst that any bully romance should have and Oliver is a bully a real dirt bag this guy is going to need some major work if he's going to get out of the dog house with Harper but one final thing that Oliver dose leaves Harper with more questions then answers which gives for and intriguing but frustrating cliffhanger. There is also some mystery surrounding Harper and the School i think even with all the physical tension this will probably be a bully romance that builds with each book so I'm curious to see were the series goes from here.

I have been allowed to read and advance copy of this book via Booksprout and this is my honest review.

Enough

Apparently I've read too many bully romances lately..they've all been the same ..partners on school projects ..etc..anyway these two to me there is no connection..the things Oliver does to get her attention. Don't seem real to me like everything is a game ...he dont really want her just playing with her as a joke...stealing money and things from her ..nope ..no nothing ..just a game ..will not continue reading the series n has put me off the authors books ..will skip every one of them

The description says that there is bullying and while there is to a degree, this book mainly just has the main character trying to solve a mystery. I am excited to read the next book though!

Bully Target

Consider me intrigued. I do wish the FMC wouldn't cave in so much when it comes to Oliver but still intriguing. Looking forward to the next book

Love this

Omg loved this and cannot wait for the 2nd book now, had to giggle at harpers spying techniques, such a cliffhanger I need to know what's happening now lol

Wow, this book was far different from the other two series I read that were written by Moira. This one had no sex scenes at all, the foreplay couldn't even be considered as foreplay, but I loved the air of mystery surrounding Oliver and Harper's quest to find it out. I liked it. Looking forward to read the second book!
