Book Blurb:

Year One

Bloodshed Academy Book 1

by Jen L. Grey

Genre: Paranormal Academy Romance

Only the strongest survive ... most of the time

Raven may be a shifter, but she's always felt separate from her wolf. She never knew it should be different. Then, a stranger showed up in her hometown, turning her world upside down and recruiting her for the elite Bloodshed Academy.

Everything she's ever known gets challenged, and Raven found herself in impossible situations. Making matters worse was the fact that one of the strongest alphas at school caught her eye. And he made her feel things she didn't understand.

The school may only recruit the best of the best, the strongest in their world, but there was something more about Raven. When push comes to shove, she had to decide if she's willing to fight for what she's come to love ... or run from a life she couldn't quite accept.

My Review:

5 Out Of 5 Stars

Genre: Romance, Supernatural, Teen, Urban Fantasy, Vampires, Werewolves--

Raven has spent her whole life being told her place in the back, which is basically only to support her boyfriend, the future alpha, and to never want anything for herself. Well, the human half of Raven may be tolerant of the idea, but her wolf side wants to be free and in charge. When a scout for the elite supernatural academy shows up at her high school graduation, the entire pack is shocked that he came to recruit Raven. Raven has an opportunity to get out of her place in the pack and be something more, that is if she can survive the danger that is Bloodshed Academy.

When I stumbled across this book, I was instantly sold- werewolves mixed with a magical academy, yes please! I am a sucker for both those genres alone, but mixed together I had very high hopes for this story- it also didn't hurt that the cover is so pretty. I am happy to report that Year One was fast and fun, something that I could pick up and completely immerse myself to the drama and world building that the author set up. There was so much going on in the story, be it plot or supernatural creatures, and yet the components all meshed well together. I will admit that there was a romance that I ship hardcore and I only hope for the best in the future books, but that may be wishful on my part. And not only was there romance, there was great friendships that kept me entertained and hoping for more banter and interactions.

The ending was not at all the ending, instead just a pause in all the crazy that Raven has found herself involved in. You better believe that I will be here for the next book as soon as possible, thank goodness it is already out! This series is the perfect choice for anyone who likes werewolves, magical academies, relationship dynamics, mystery and and secrets.

Reading has always been one of my favorite hobbies, even as a little girl. When I was a toddler, my parents would read stories to me over and over. I would hear them so often that I had the books memorized and could recite the story word by word.

My favorite genres are fantasy, paranormal, and contemporary romance. So of course that's what I'm inclined to write.

​I have a husband, two young daughters, and a mini Australian Shepherd. I've lived in Tennessee the majority of my life and love the state.

I'm extremely addicted to caffeine and enjoy drinking coffee and lattes.
