The nightmare may just be beginning. Ella starts school at The Cove Academy and quickly feels like she’s sprung a trap. Let’s just say the school’s queen bee, Savannah, definitely packs a lethal sting. But that’s OK, because Ella has her fine-ass Royal step-brothers to protect her from these plastic mean girls, right? Wrong. In fact, The Royals may be her worst enemies. Will Ella be able to survive her first year in Malibu, or will she crumble like it seems everyone wants her to? I thought this was supposed to be a romance podcast. It feels more like a horror story.
