Belladona Cunning enjoys long walks on the beach ... Ha, yeah, right! While she does love the beach, she loves smutty, steam worthy paranormal romance even more. When she's not in her writing cave, you can find her running around with her two hellions and Mr. Cunning wreaking havoc on society.
I literally hate leaving bad reviews. This story had so much potential, it was a good storyline but the execution wasn’t there. It was all over the place and the whole issue over four books was wrapped up in the last like 20 pages. Definitely needed more explaining and detail. There was a lot left unanswered. Also the grammar throughout the whole series was atrocious. So bad it took away from the story because it was so distracting. I wanted to like this series, but it definitely wasn’t a winner for me unfortunately.
Absolutely love this author! This was an amazing portrayal of a group of "Mafia Kings" and how they came to be how they are. Parts of this book has me hating some characters and loving others. Then it all turns around again. Belladonna Cunning would be an author I highly recommend, if you love steamy and angsty academy stories!
It's hard to summarize this book it had good parts bad parts confusing scenes and just a whole lot going on maybe too much not to mention the trigger moments of rape and other sexual acts eluded too. The bad elements in this book are really bad and the people you thought you knew something about well that gets completely thrown out the window there's a whole lot of crazy going on here but the ending answers some questions it dosen't answer others and leaves a big plot whole for me there's a baby but you don't know who the father was but it still could have been the bad guys it never answers that so I have to give it 4 starts to much going on and not enough answeres by the end it just didn't make sense. The start of the series was good had potential but by the 3rd book it just went down the rabbit hole like Alice in Wonderland chasing the white rabbit in some psychedelic haze after eating a mushroom.
Firstly, I still enjoyed the complete series but , I do feel 3 books could have condensed the story. The last book just seemed contrived in sections and we were lead down a big, long road with lots of twists and turns. The storyline went from tense and mysterious to overly complex and I had to re~read sections to make sure had grasped exactly what had happened. There are still some questions I didn't get answered and don't know if it's because I missed them in the throes of concentration whilst reading, or if they weren't addressed. I lost Interest in sections which didn't happen in the other books . With that aside, I still loved the 4 main characters and loved how the brotherhood element progressed in this instalment.
I started this series not knowing what to expect but omg it was worth it. The story is dark and twisted with so many mysteries, lies and secrets. I found all the characters from the main to back ground are Complicated and complex. The story has grows so much from ‘Plaything’ up-to ‘Dirty Little Secret’ every cliffhanger gets me hunger for more. I honestly couldn’t wait for ‘Dig Two Graves’ an it disappoint it had everything I expected and more. It was an amazing ending to lively series.
Dig Two Graves is the fourth and final book in the Reighton Prep series. It is an epic conclusion with plenty of twists and turns. All previous books filled with so many secrets, all lead to these final moments and all of our unanswered questions are answered. An enjoyable read with a very satisfying ending.
Wow what an ending for Ariyal, Brett, Chaz and Dorran! Ariyal really went through the emotions in this book. I did get a little confused towards the end because there was a lot of new information introduced all at once but other then that, another great read.
Am I watching Sunset Beach? Who's who's father? Was it the uncle or the butler? But what about Ari's mum? Did her dad run away with her aunt? And what is Trevor doing there? I could NOT keep up, which is sad because this story has so much potential to be a great series. But with all the bad writing I wouldn't recommend this book series to anyone
I don't remember what I thought of the previous books, but this finale was full of typos and quite immature. Ari"s inner thoughts were not believable. She should have hated herself more, and the guys, for expecting or wanting anything from them.
This is definitely a dark bully romance and I couldn't put it down. I finished all the books within 2 days because I didn't want to stop reading. I wish there had been more chapters from the different guys perspectives in the books, but I'd still recommend it.
Rating is given for the entire series... uggh. If it wasnt for the Kindle Unlimited status, and my hopeful nature, I never wouldve made it past book 2.
This is last book in the Reighton Preparatory Academy Series. This is a bully/enemy-to-lovers, #whychoose, new adult contemporary romance, full-length novel.

There is a secret that I know, one that will rock the foundation of the elites to their core. One that some have died for. There are resurrections, cover ups, dangerous games of life and death. I am going to take them all down, this I swear.
So if you have followed this series from the beginning, then you know what kind of mind games are happening. But this one, Dig Two Graves, is so much more. I have never been so all over the place with a story than I have this one. So much happens here I could not even begin to explain anything to you. Plus I do not want to reveal any spoilers, it will make the reading experience so much better if you experience it as you go.
But I can tell you that if you have triggers, please be warned on this one, as there is a big trigger in this book. This is for a sexual one in nature.
Once I started reading DTG, I could not stop. Literally non stop action and things going on. Yes we get answers, and yes we get exactly what we want at the end. I loved the ending. Ari and her men have to go through so much here. Some shocking things will be revealed. You will be saying to yourself, "What the Hell is going on" "Did I just read what I think, What?!!!"
So just sit back, and get ready for a roller coaster ride. This is one crazy read with a satisfying ending.
I was highly anticipating this book after reading the last book. I loved some of the story and was appalled by some of it. I love her character mostly though her immaturity in some decisions was very apparent. The men in her life didn’t redeem themselves as much as I would have liked. The secrets were revealed to cause major impact and it paid off. No one could be forgiven or excused for what her supposed friend did. That scene was hard to read. The reactions from her men was good though I thought he needed to be charged with a crime. So I had mixed feelings for this book. Overall a very good series.
This is my first series read by this author and i can say that i m sated. This series has highest bullying I have ever read in school bully romances. The guys Chaz, Brett, Dorran are the ones that you really love to hate, they have spend their whole time in series being cruel and ignorant to girl's plight nothing better can be expected from bullies.what u lack in this series from guys' angle is emotional aspect for Ariyal. For MC I'm little disappointed because in last two books she has nothing to do but go with the flow of story which guys' leading, coinsdering how feisty she was in first two books. Now why I have given this book 5 star is because it hooks you with first page. All the twist and turns are in last book, it drops bomb on you again and again. Once you start you will also end in one go.

This is the final book in the Reighton Preparatory Academy RH series. It’s a epic emotional roller coaster ride. A few triggers are revealed, such as sex slavery, pedophilia, rape, and kidnapping. With that said if you can handle it, then it’s a must read. I enjoy reading Ms. Cunning’s books but this one is a whopper. It’s gritty, emotional, but leads to an HEA. I was addicted to the stories...binging the series in one sitting. I can’t wait for Ms. Cunning’s next series as they always sooo good!

I would highly recommend this read.

I fell in love with this dark RH right from the start. And this final book in the series doesn’t disappoint. You think you know what’s going on but once you read this book you will realize you knew nothing. It will keep you guessing till the very end.
Ari goes through so very tragic events, and I feel like her world is rocked on multiple occasions. Chaz, Dorran and Brett finally show their true colours and they will all have to band together with some unlikely characters to finally finish it. And so they can get their happy ending.
I’m definitely gonna miss this series but I’m excited to read what we get next from this author

Rating 3.5 stars. The twists and turns to the end of this series.....crazy! Ari went through so much with her guys. I would have liked to see Trevor get his just desserts, though (traitor!). I would also have liked to know more about what happened with Ari's mom after everything went down. It would be great to revisit Ari and her boys at a later time to see how things are going ;).
