Knox Academy Trilogy #2
F*ck Off: Term Two
With one ring of the doorbell, one unexpected visitor, and one shocking revelation, Amelie Rossi’s whole world is torn apart. Again.
Faced with no choice but to return to Knox Academy, she knows she has to go back to save the people she loves. But nothing can prepare her for the twisted welcome home awaiting her back in England.
As Amelie tries to re-navigate her way around a school full of criminals hell bent on revenge, her confusing feelings for the four guys who destroyed her heart, and even more family drama, she must also figure out the mysteries of The Order of The Snaidhm to get to the bottom of the tangled web of lies and half truths being fed to her.
Sick of being told what to do and who she must become, Amelie is faced with an important decision: will she fall in line to get the answers she so desperately craves, or tell everyone to f*ck off so that she can forge her own path?

Omg what an explosive book wow just wow
Well what can I say about this book other than wow, while I currently pick up pieces of my brain and my heart off the floor.
While we see Amelie back in Australia at the start of the book. With the arrival of Sawyer to take her back to Knox academy, we see Amelie go through many mind blowing twists and some heartbreaking turns, but also plenty of hot moments too.
The character of Amelie is such a strong woman that you see her face her problems head on and fight for the answers shes looking for, the characters of Sawyer, Kalen, Onyx and Slate are each hot and totally great characters each in their own way. We get to see each if them realise that they cant live without Amelie but they all work through that in different ways. To then all come together at the end of the book in such an epic explosive way that will leave you hanging to your sanity waiting for book 3. So its good to see that their will be a 2.5 book in between to hold us over.
If you've not picked up this book or started this series get to it today it will blow you away.

Coming soon to KU soon (September 30)! This is my review for the ARC.
This is so good. I just want the next book now... I am obsessed with this series and with these characters. Oh, and that ending! What just happened?!! Not Onyx! Well, not any of the others either.
Can I just say I kinda love Baxter? You too? Good. And Camilla? Need to know more. Is there a reunion happening? Maybe she will get rid of the incubator. Wonder if she is aware how she's been treating Amelie. I sure hope not.
There's so much to unpack in this one and honestly I'm still processing. Again need that next book so bad!

After that brilliant cliffhanger ending of book 1 this book picks up the pace where that one left off. Forced back to Knox Academy Amelie (FMC) doesnt find the warmest welcomes on her return. A school chock full of students that are out for blood and a family that she doesnt trust. At the forefront of that are Sawyer, Slate, Onyx and Kalen. With a lot to make up for to Amelie. With so many lies, secrets, plot twists and turns it certainly keeps you on your toes. My god is it a series you cant help but be gripped by. From start to finish. I dont think theres any of the main characters i dont like. I have to say that Baxter is a favourite. Hes definitely got it all going on!! Another cliffhanger ending?? This one completely threw me but boy was it a goody. Bring on book 3 because im dying to my hands on it now!!!

***OG summary posted in book 1 review, same overall breakdown for all (4) books below***
So book two has Amelie coming back from Australia, with Sawyer, weighed down with some new information about what really happened with her prank, and hiding her knowledge of who really did the prank.
Sawyer is the first one forgiven, no real surprise, he was just a duck and had a small attitude but never really did anything to her, more like just being her rock.
The other three, for pretending to or either actually threatening her with, (does it matter which?) gang rape in order to re-traumatize her for some child bullshit with their mom that she didn’t even really do…yeah she does forgive them. All.
However, let’s talk about that in a min. First off, she left the school hella fucked up as she blasted everyone with what everyone else did to get admitted to that school in the first place. So needless to say, peeps are pissed, like super pissed. Rightfully so, you can’t just dox people Amelie… 🙄
So, safe to say many people are after her for payback, even the guys want to, but know they “fucked up” before she left and can forgive her to make it “even”……🤮
Kalen is essentially the first she forgives, cause of his literal and figurative puppy dog ways, and some pizza of course… he is still a child, acting like he is 5 and still has a monster cock and still likes to call her sister when they fuck. So…yeah
Slate is next on the forgiveness scale, but both are too stubborn 🤡, so yea know. When he finally caves first and wants to meet her, grandpa Knox has other ideas and sends him on a mission, so his twin shows up in his place to be funny. She’s drunk and doesn’t know that, so when slate watches them hook up, (which as soon as she figured out in her hungover state that it was Onyx, she stopped it and was angry), either way Slate boo gets his feelings hurt and backs off.
The only reason she forgave Onyx? He got shot. By a muscle douche. Moving on.
As said students are angry at her, she is attacked by a male rapist, who only chokes her and kicks her a bunch, then later gets his shit recked by Onyx, who watched it happen in the shadows. Onyx also supplied her with pepper spray, taser and a rape whistle (in a school of criminals who hater her?? Who the fuck is going to help her 🤡🤡). He also watched her be attacked this first time, didn’t step in, because “she needs to want our help, which she won’t ask for until she forgives us, so let’s just watch”. These are your choice in men?? There isn’t enough clown emojis for this review. I swear. Later she is attacked, while drunk off her ass, walking alone in a cavern from a party, without her security or a single bf and gets targeted by a group of guys who want to gang rape her and film it. She pukes so they leave. The whole time she trash talked them, but cries any time her men hurt her feelings ❓🚩🚩🚩🚩🚩🚩🚩🚩🚩🚩🚩🚩🚩
Need I say more? Girl, bye.
Overall? 1
Plot? 2 (bk1), 2 (bk2), 1 (bk2.5), 0 (bk3)
Spice? 2 all the way
Char Dev? Where? 0…nah 1, for Susan.
Cheating? No, but fuck if there should have been
HEA? Wouldn’t give a fuck but maybe
Triggers? Yeah, drugs, alcohol, sexual assault, ptsd, re-trauma, parental abuse, age gap
Tropes? Reverse harem, but shouldn’t have been, crime organization, enemies to lovers to enemies to lovers to wtf? High school bully sort of, shitty guys, poor excuse of a heroine.

Uh, huh?
Amelie is so all over the place with her feelings and suddenly a pro at everything thrown at her, it’s it’s like visual whiplash.
Her “harem” is ridiculous.
Kalen, sweet funny Kalen is one of the reasons I keep reading. Their banter is funny. He’s the typical blonde haired playboy who shows no actual playboy tendencies.
Slate our broody musician.
Onyx mr dark and broody
Sawyer, gag. Instalove ex teacher hopelessly devoted to our h.
We literally have very little backstory on our characters and their relationship with the h, bits and pieces but come on! Where is the depth? I’m a sucker for smut with a story but this lacks both.
Baxter should steal her away and they can go make little psycho babies. He’s the real hero here.

Good lord what an intriguing wild story chalked full of heightened emotions, suspense, smart a** banter, and heated moments! The twists and turns this book took definitely kept me hooked and on my toes. Amelie and her men are quite the handful in all the best ways! It’s hard to have a favorite when each one brings something unique to the table. I can’t wait to read/listen to book 3! The audiobook was performed in duet multicast by Valerie Starre, Alex Bates, Elliot Matthews, James Joseph, & Benjamin Crow. What a rock star cast that was made for their roles! I was very much impressed with the natural talent of these narrators and I look forward to hearing more from this group. Thank you Blue Nose Audio, Crystal North, and Jaye Pratt for a fantastic ALC opportunity!

I was so excited to read this book after the massive cliffhanger on first book. It was so worth the wait.
Book 2 starts out with Ameile back in Australia with her family when Sawyer shows up and forces her to come back to the Knox Academy. However, after the fallout of the last book being at Knox Academy is now a dangerous place for Ameile and the students now want revenge. The only people who offer her help are the one's she doesn't trust anymore. This book is an absolute roller coaster of emotions with suspense, romance, mystery and drama and poor Ameile just wants to make it out of the Academy alive and find out what everyone is hiding.

No, no, no...it can't end like that. My heart is rushing right now...OMFG!! Another 5🌟
What a fantastic continuation to the Knox Academy series. Especially, with all of the angst, suspense, character developments, and of course sexy times. But, ugh that cliffhanger 😱

After making her "grand exit", Amelie pulled a stunt that exposed everyone at the school. She was forced to return to Knox Academy, and ended up painting a target on her back. After, an eventful time back, she discovers a family secret that leads her into another world.

I loved this book! Amelie and her boys, Sawyer, Onyx, Slate, and Kalen, are an explosive, volatile mix of kicka$$ and sexy. And I want so much more of Baxter! There are so many twists and turns in this Series and be warned there is a bit of a cliffhanger to get you salivating for Book #3. If you enjoy Why Choose, hot bullying Alphas, strong feisty heroines, tons of angst and intrigue, and a fast paced storyline, then F**k Off should leave you happy and wanting more! 5 Stars!

This book was well worth the wait. I stayed up all night reading. I can’t believe what happened in this book seriously grandpa Knox is A real psycho jerk (I thinking his son is too but I’m not positive) the boys are completely hard headed but hopefully learning. Crystal North & Jaye Cox I’m calling you out ,Assholes that ending was completely fucked up . I can’t wait for the next book in this series.

Ahhh! This book was so good!! Hooked me from start to finish! That cliff though! 😱💔😭
So much mystery, suspense, secrets! For every truth/secret revealed, new questions come with it. Love the multi POV! It offers so much more depth and insight to these characters, who are incredibly layered. I love seeing their growth journey. I flove Amelie (the FMC)! She has been an understated badass, full of sass, humor, and resilience and now showing outer strength, cunning, and fierce determination - and I love seeing her come into her own. I'm hard core rooting for Amelie and am loving her journey. I also love that she has formed positive, supportive bestie relationships beyond the lust/hate/love relationships with the Hs.
Oh, the Hs... 🤤🤤🔥🔥🔥🔥 The chemistry is off the charts! The connection between Amelie and each H has forged in a different way, and each has a unique fit and complement between them. And I so love the broken characters who heal together trope 🖤🖤🖤🖤
Right now my emotions are all over the place and my head 🤯 I could not pre-order Term 2.5 or 3 fast enough.

Really liked it.
I wish Amelie had put up more resistance about going back to England (I mean, she just said "f*ck it, let's go" because she was angry at her family...).
What annoyed me about her guys was that they were dead set on making her part of The Order without even giving her any information about it (I know, it's either don't tell our secrets or f*cking die), but I think they put her in even more danger by doing that since they knew shady things were going on...
Amelie has that fight or flight insinct when she's emotionally distressed: she seems to always choose flight. That's what happened in book 1 and what also happened in book 2. Hopefully, this time, Slate and Kalen will get to her before anything happens to her.
Already pre-ordered book 2.5 and 3 and I can't wait to read them!

Boring
Sorry, I just couldn't get into this second book. The first was long and drawn out but I wanted to give this one a chance. Just couldn't do it. The main character Amelie is supposed to be so strong, until she's not, most of the time. Story just couldn't hold my interest to find out about this secret order. Who cares? I sure don't.

Nope. Just nope.
I guess I was hoping for this book to be about her forgetting them and moving on happily with her family.
And a few pages in, my hopes I’ve been crushed and I’m already pissed.
No point pissing myself more, it can only get downhill from here.

Lost interest when she said that Branson was friendzoned. It was the only MC that interested me. And the thing about the order bored me to tears.

F*ck Off is dramatic, addictive, and overflowing with dark academy energy. It isn’t an easy ride, but it’s definitely an entertaining one. If you love morally gray characters, complicated relationships, and stories filled with twists, turns and characters to obsess over, then you’ll probably find yourself craving book 3 the moment this one ends. 🎧📚🔥
If you’re hooked like I am.
Then this series deserves a spot on your TBR.
The ending left me desperately craving more, and I already need the next book in my ears. Crystal North and Jaye Pratt have created a dark, addictive world that’s impossible to walk away from.

F*ck Off is dramatic, addictive, and overflowing with dark academy energy. It isn’t an easy ride, but it’s definitely an entertaining one. If you love morally gray characters, complicated relationships, and stories filled with twists, turns and characters to obsess over, then you’ll probably find yourself craving book 3 the moment this one ends. 🎧📚🔥
If you’re hooked like I am.
Then this series deserves a spot on your TBR.
The ending left me desperately craving more, and I already need the next book in my ears. Crystal North and Jaye Pratt have created a dark, addictive world that’s impossible to walk away from.

Amelie & Kalen, Sawyer, Onyx and Slate
Rating: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Heat Level: 🔥🔥
Tropes: MFMMM, MEDIUM TO FAST BURN DARK ROMANCE, Step-brothers 🤤
CW: SA triggers, graphic physical bullying, mentions of child abuse, references to past SA trauma
Not a trigger but this is a multi book series so be prepared for the cliffys 😮💨
364 pages, 46 chapters
Multi-POV
Faced with no choice but to return to Knox Academy, she knows she has to go back to save the people she loves. But nothing can prepare her for the twisted welcome home awaiting her back in England. As Amelie tries to re-navigate her way around a school full of criminals hell bent on revenge, her confusing feelings for the four guys who destroyed her heart, and even more family drama, she must also figure out the mysteries of The Order of The Snaidhm to get to the bottom of the tangled web of lies and half truths being fed to her. Sick of being told what to do and who she must become, Amelie is faced with an important decision: will she fall in line to get the answers she so desperately craves, or tell everyone to f*ck off so that she can forge her own path?
First thoughts:
Dead?!?! Honestly surprised I didn’t see that coming. And then it’s not even her crime. Also expected. Okay …. Let’s see his this goes coming back to the academy 😮💨
Things I loved:
- I’m glad I’m listening to this and not trying to pronounce The Snaidhm 😅 bc I know I’d be saying it exactly how Amelie does
- this is where the action is. oh yeahhhh I can get behind it 🙌🏼 and just enough smexy time that it wasn’t forced to be the plot. Although a 🤏🏼 more couldn’t have hurt lolol
Quotes:
Now this is a fight I can get on board with. They say never bring a knife to a gunfight, but always bring a knife to a fist fight. Or maybe that’s just something I say?
Things I ponder:
- Baxter. Fifth?? Can she? Should she? I don’t think so but I do think that come the end of this the boys will be bros again. That’s the HEA I’m talking about 🤭🤣🤭
- I’m a sucker for cliffys hate them but cannot stay away!!! and this one makes me wanna 🥊
- We for or against Camilla!?
Would I read again? Maybe
Would I read more from author? Yes
Would I recommend? Yes
I received this Blue Nose ALC in exchange for my honest review. All thoughts & opinions are my own

This is the second audiobook in Crystal North and Jaye Pratt’s wildly addictive dark academia/secret society romance series, Knox Academy. This series absolutely must be read or listened to in order. This audiobook picks up right where the last book left off with that heart-wrenching cliffhanger. Amelie mistakenly believes she’s escaped Knox Academy and the men who shattered her trust and her heart for good… only to have Sawyer show up at her home to escort her back. At first, she fights it, but when new information comes to light regarding the incident that sent her to Knox Academy, she reluctantly gives in. But returning to the scene of the crime is even harder than she expected. Not only does she have to deal with the Knox brothers, but it seems nearly everyone else on campus is out to get her for revealing their private student files before fleeing home to Australia. She is in constant danger of attack and has to rely on her friend, Baxter, and those sinfully-sexy Knox brothers for protection. And they are out to win her back no matter what or how long it takes. Let the groveling and seduction commence! We also finally get some answers about The Order and Amelie’s past, but it seems like every answer just creates even more questions. I am properly obsessed with this series! The plot is dark, dangerous, and oh, so twisty. And the characters just crawl right under your skin and embed themselves in your psyche until you are completely invested in the story. And every thoroughly-compelling and occasionally swoon-worthy moment in this story leads to yet another pulse-pounding cliffhanger that will leave you salivating for book three.
The duet-style, full-cast audio narration for this story is just sheer perfection and elevates this already-incredible story to a whole new level of dark deliciousness. This is perfectly cast with Valerie Starre, Alex Bates, Elliot Matthews, James Joseph, and Benjamin Crow. They all deliver thoroughly immersive, nuanced, emotional, passionate, and authentic performances that absolutely make you feel as if you are right there in the story. If you’re a fan of secret society, dark academia romance stories, then for my money, it just doesn’t get any better than this. The audio for book three cannot come fast enough for me!

I am still really enjoying my return visit to Knox Academy; Amelie has been kept in the dark for too long and the secrets are starting to come out! The Order are making moves but not everyone is thrilled with Amelie's participation. There are threats everywhere as Amelie faces up to her actions from the end of book one.
The Knox boys have some major grovelling to do and although Amelie has some of her own apologising to do, she definitely makes them work for it! The trip to Tesco was some great comic relief in amongst all the angst. Kalen is my new favourite Knox; I was previously a Sawyer girl when I read this but James Joseph has won me over to team Kalen. I love his bad boy x golden retriever energy and I could just hear some of those pouts through my headphones! Baxter also has me swooning but I know that ship has sailed. I'd have loved him in the harem though despite Kalen's views!
I struggled a little with Smalls and the revelations relating to him; when you find out what Amelie took the fall for it made me see him in a different light. I know they aren't together but I think Smalls was just biding his time to let her down gently and I'm glad that's resolved. I was a little surprised at the lack of Aadi interactions though when the big reveal came out. There is another trip to Australia coming up and I think there may be a showdown coming! And I really hope Marcia's consequence hasnt been forgotten about. After that cliffhanger there are definitely some more pressing issues to deal with first but I need retribution for Elsie!
My interpretation of the star system;
3 stars - I enjoyed it; would read the author again
4 stars - I really liked it; I am invested and definitely want more from this author/series
5 stars - I loved it; I engaged with this book completely until I finished it and it is one I will re-read

✨AUDIOBOOK & EBOOK REVIEW✨
Why Choose + Academia + 4 Hot Men + Secret Society = F*ck Off 🔥
This is book 2 in the Knox Academy Trilogy and the story picks up from where it ended in book 1. We got to learn so much more about what is really going on at the academy and why Amelie was sent there.
The FMC got on my nerves a few times like in book 1 but I still enjoyed reading the story and all the drama. I am definitely curious to see what happens in book 3 especially with that cliffhanger again plus everything related to the secret society. Hoping the relationship with the guys evolves even more in book 3 because I still don't know how I feel about all of them especially with what happened in book 1.
Like in book 1, this book is filled with twists and turns as well and always keeping you guessing about what will happen next.
🎧 Now for the audiobook, this was performed in multi cast duet narration by Valerie Starre, Alex Bates, Elliot Matthews, James Joseph & Benjamin Crow. They all did a great job with the narration for this book. I am not used to Australian and British accents so I needed time to adjust again like with book 1 before I could immerse in the story. I did like that it was multi cast duet narration especially with all the POVs, dialogue, spice and banter. It just makes it more fun to listen to.

Crystal North and Jaye Pratt co-write together so amazingly. I can never tell who writes which parts in their books, they flow and transition that well. The first book in this series was crazy and unbelievable, but this 2nd installment was mind blowing and suspenseful. Amelie is probably one of my favorite characters because you never know what to expect from her. She may seem weak at times, but you really see her flourish in this book. She shows such determination, strength, and intelligence that many don't expect from her, especially because she is a woman or they think they think she is completely clueless about the situation she is in. I like it when characters surprise you like that, when they make decisions that are least expected of them. After the ending of the last book I didn't know what to expect with the progression of the series because the guys had so much to make up for and things seemed to have been escalating quite quickly into the dangerous and unknown territory. There was still so much that was hidden about the academy and the order that the men were involved in. I was glad to get some answers about that in this book, but, man, was it intense and unexpected. There is so much more going on than I believed, so much more story there left to unfold. It honestly leaves you feeling confused on who to trust and who is playing on what side. Who is considered the "bad guy", although that becomes even more clear as the story gets closer to the end...but there is just so much to absorb. It's nuts and I love it. And yes, there's another cliffhanger. I don't know what you'd expect from these two authors. They just leave you wanting more. Enough said. Book three is bound to be amazing.

This series seriously sucks you in!
At the end of the first book we left Amelie boarding a flight back to Oz after leaving the files of everyones crimes pinned up in the school as revenge, sure she wouldn't be returning after that.....
.... Sadly it takes more than that to be expelled. Sawyer turns up to escort her back mere days after. After an upsetting time home, she's actually relieved to be leaving there for now.
But she returns to some pissed off school mates and these aren't the kind of school mates you want on the bad side. She is still upset and angry with the 3 younger knox brothers and refuse their help of chaperoning... Not a good idea as she's targeted again and again before school even starts....
The brothers refuse to give up on Amelie and keep pushing for forgiveness. Bit by bit they chop away at her walls and bring them down.
Its around now she's starting to learn about The Order and beginning the nasty initiation to be a member.
Grandfather knox is dead set against women in the order so the fact that amelia is not only due to be in it but also one of the heads.... He does a variety of things to attempt to prevent her progressing.
The boys and even baxter show their true colours and it's good to see Amelie is no longer alone. However, she may have more family than she realises....and the one in Australia may not be as clear cut as she believed.
Pieces are starting to fit together that shows who Amelie is and why she's there. It's a slow build, but a perfect build, as it gives us chance to get them all thru school and to see the process of their relationship.
The cliffhanger on this one...... Aaaaarrrggghhh!!!!! Noooooo!!!!! Say it ain't so!!! Om not saying any more but I need to read the next book but alas, it has to wait!!!!

Picked this book up again after having left it on my TBR.
This second book in the series continues on the drama between Amerlie and ‘The Order’
The four guys
Sawyer
Slate
Kalen
Onyx
Are planning a takeover of ‘The Order’ by getting the votes of the founding families.
This appears to be on the cards once they discover further information about Amerlie’s background.
Apparently she is the daughter of not ONE, but TWO of the families
Rossi, and Kessler.
Yep!
Her awful mother Laura, that she was sent to live with in the UK isn’t her REAL MOTHER!
So, while they manoeuvre her into becoming a founding families member of The Order.
She try’s to find out more about the groups secrets.
All while delving into the usual RH storyline fair with her and the four guys working out their group dynamic’s re: sex…and MORE SEX,
We even get the obligatory multiple partner moment as Amerlie finds herself “stuffed between a twin sandwich”.
Thus, eventually leading us up to the explosive (?) cliffhanger ending
told through multiple character POV’s guaranteed to make your head spin.
As RH novels go, this one, plot wise, wasn’t bad.
However there is always a risk that the author/s getting SO excited over all the hotness of the male characters that they have developed that they become too engrossed in the multiple seXual relationships, and the actual plot gets pushed to the side,
This did happen at times in this book, so much so I began to know exactly when there was another hook up due.
Interesting ending, in some ways, saved this story for me, otherwise it was becoming RH by the numbers.
Be interesting to see if the authors will be courageous and allow a main characters demise…
Somehow, I think we will have the safer option..Pity!
Most interesting character for me?
Baxter
