Review: Filthy Rich Boys - CM Stunich

Review: Filthy Rich Boys - Book #1 Rich Boys of Burberry Prep - CM Stunich - March 2019

The new theme lately for books tends to be a Reverse Harem set in a High School environment with a Bully aspect to the story. I had read before Bully novels and RH's and enjoyed them but none together until Filthy Rich Boys. I have to admit as I have always been a fan of those two tropes, reading them together made the book more interesting. We have our female character Marnye Read who has been given a chance to have a full-ride scholarship at Burberry Prep. However, this isn't just a wealthy school, this is an affluent school with a strong hierarchy, and they do not want low-class poor people ruining their perfect image as they nickname Marnye - "Working Girl" as in Julia Robert's Pretty Woman. Three guys rule the school - Tristan, Creed, and Zayn. Everybody else follows their lead.  What Tristan says goes, and this year he has made his target Maryne Reed. He wants her out and has put a bullying plan in place. Marnye will be pushed to the limits in Filthy Rich Boys as they do and try everything in their power to break her. The thing is though that they are dealing with someone who was already broken and overcame that and once she sets her mind on a goal, no-one can stop her. What I liked about this book is that whatever they chucked at her, she took it like a boss despite her insides starting to crumble. She was not going to let them win despite how hard they pushed. We also catch an insight into Marnye's previous life with Zach being introduced to the book too, and we learn about how his deal with the devil impacted Marnye those many years ago. I have to admit after reading this book, Marnye is one of my heroes as I wish I had her stamina to stay strong and not crumble before those her hurt her.
