Can you keep a secret?
I grew up sick.
Let me clarify.
I grew up believing that real love stories include a martyr or demand great sacrifice to be worthy.
Because of that, I believed it, because I made myself believe it, and I bred the most masochistic of romantic hearts, which resulted in my illness.
When I lived this story, my own twisted fairy tale, it was unbeknownst to me at the time because I was young and naïve. I gave into temptation and fed the beating beast, which grew thirstier with every slash, every strike, every blow.
Triple Falls wasn’t at all what it seemed, nor were the men that swept me under their wing. But in order to keep them, I had to be in on their secrets.
Secrets that cost us everything to keep.
That’s the novelty of fiction versus reality. You can’t re-live your own love story, because by the time you’ve realized you’re living it, it’s over. At least that was the case for me and the men I trusted my foolish heart to.
Looking back, I’m convinced I willed my story into existence due to my illness.
And all were punished.

— MY REVIEW —
'FLOCK'
is the first full length romance book in Kate Stewart's 'The Ravenhood' duet. An unconventional twisted suspenseful love story. Spoken in nineteen year old Cecelia's POV.
I'm not going to write up this review how I normally would only because you really need to go into this one blind, because this book deserves it!
Like fight club, what you see, what you hear, you do not tell anyone!!
I have no idea what I just read, but what I did read I LOVED!! Everything about this book was beyond unique, it pulled me in so effortlessly, the secrets, the suspense, the boys of summer, the sexual tension and encounters had me hooked from the get go.
Cecelia is required to live with her estranged father who she hadn't seen since she was much younger, she'll also be working at his electronics plant for a year which one day she will inherit along with a lump sum, allowing her to learn the ropes to earn her place within his empire and to help out her mother.
Cecelia is the good girl who has good grades, who loves and takes care of her mother to ensure she's happy. An introvert who is happy to be a wallflower who always plays it safe. But this summer she's going to reinvent herself. She's going to be the YES girl.
She has no expectations, work for a year then leave for college, but nothing prepared her for twenty five year old Sean who she met the first day of orientation, he invited her back for a party at this place to meet his brotherhood of friends.
They pull her into their fold, secrecy shrouds them all like a cloak. The untouchables, each man has a tattoo of a raven, what does it mean? Who are these men? Are they friend or foe? Who can she trust?
These men I've been hanging with are exactly the type that Mom warns you away from and that Dad is supposed to greet at the front door with a shotgun in hand.
So many questions, so many twists and turns. Fast cars, parties, drugs and girls.
This book had my brain working on overdrive, trying to piece the puzzle together, the suspense killing me as I devoured this in record time.
