Blurb about the book:

     The complete set of season one of the Witches of Santa Anna series of novellas...Includes CLAIMED, TRICKED, RUMORED, HUSHED, PURSUED, ENTICED, and RUINED.

     Natalia Moore is the new girl at Santa Anna Prep, and all she wants to do is fly under the radar -- get to her classes, meet a few friends, and try not to make a total fool of herself in the meantime. But when handsome and popular Campbell Elliot goes out of his way to be nice to the new girl, Natalia's plan to go unnoticed flies out the window.  Cam’s hot, but he’s completely off-limits. Raine Marsden, the most popular and meanest girl in school, has had her eye on him ever since the summer. And Raine doesn’t like competition.

My POV:

     Maybe I should have been paying closer attention but when I saw that it was seven books in one for .99 cents I was ecstatic, that's just unheard of.  What I found, much to my displeasure, was that these were actually novellas or in my opinion 7 chapters of a whole book and not 7 individual books.  It is also clear that it wasn't professionally edited as the formatting caused a lot of dialogue confusion.  As for the storyline and plot, I didn't have high hopes but as it progressed it developed more depth and intrigue.  It's not the best book I have ever read, but I enjoyed it a little, probably not enough to continue paying $3.00 for a 27 page "novella" but if I ever get bored down the road, who knows.

My Score:

     Because I feel slight ripped off I'm giving these "books" ♥♥ (2 hearts)
