Synopsis
Hidden - The Scions #1
I’m the Princess of the Doomsday Sinners MC.
Indulged.
Shallow.
The most popular girl in school.
My name is Nova Stubbs and all of those words have been used to describe me, they define me. Or at least that’s what people think.
No-one except my family ever bothered to look past the mask I wear, the role I play. Because this is what they want me to be, who they expect.
If they looked a little deeper they’d see the crumbling mess I am.
I care too much and hate who I pretend to be. My mind is too loud and it consumes me. Staying hidden is the only way I survive.
Then Valentine Miller steps into my world.
He hates me. He manipulates me and controls me. But when I’m with him he makes the world quiet.
Love. Hate. Need. Want. I feel them all when he touches me.
Valentine wants to ruin me and I might let him.
REVIEW
Review by: Melanie
(4 Stars)
While I really enjoyed the story and the fact that this is a next gen book of a series I love, apart from that last bit from Valentine's POV where we finally got to see a hint of emotion from him, I can honestly say that I hated him and he was just a bully. I think the author wrote Nova's perspective really well, and although I have never suffered from anxiety personally, I think the way she wrote Nova did actually give me some insight into what it might be like for someone who deals with it on a daily basis and for that I can do nothing but applaud you Gemma Weir. But Valentine... I know it wasn't rape, there was no sex for a start, but the entire way he handled Nova in the way he ordered her to do something or abc would happen gave me that same uncomfortable feeling I get whenever I read it. There is another author who has written a high school aged series with similar behaviour from the boys and I'm losing interest in that series because it's getting borderline rapey too and that's how this felt. I'm still going to carry on with this series for now, mainly because I really want to know what's going to happen and I adore the original series so I have faith things can be redeemed for me, especially after the way this ended but Valentine really needs to change my mind about him. For now, purely for the fact I love this author and the parents' books I'll give Hidden 4 stars, but if this was my first read of this authors work I think it would only be getting a 3.
