Devastated: A Dark Romance - Mia Heintzelman - Bog

They want to ruin me.I'm used to being the new girl.Every time Dad gets restationed, it's the same routine--keep my head low and be invisible until the next move.Except, despite the uniform, I don't have the money or the complexion to blend in with the devastatingly rich and beautiful students gracing the halls of Desert Badlands Academy.It's bad enough that, before my first day, I let Xander Gale give me a handy introduction in a darkened hallway of his home. Even if he is hot, I keep telling myself I don't need any distractions. My scholarship is riding on finishing up the year here.But when I see him looking at me, I still hope we can pick up where we left off.Only, now his lingering stares have caught the attention of the other sinister members of The Crows--Jorden Battle and Marshall Landers. All beautiful disasters, gods, and idols of Badlands--or Wastelands--who feast on the innocent.★★★It's all my fault.Marshall caught me watching Izabelle Waters. He's made a game out of taking whatever he knows I want just to see me scramble. And for what? To be the King of The Crows?Now there's going to be a feeding. He wants me to ruin Izabelle with the whole school watching.I'm not going to allow it.Not when my future relies on it. Not when she's the first girl I ever really wanted. Not when the last girl we videoed ourselves ruining is now dead.***Devastated is a 30,000-word dark/mature high school romance novella with a bully/suspense twist.
