Complimentary copy provided by author for an honest review.Wow, this prequel novella by Ilsa Madden-Mills is AMAZING! I absolutely couldn’t put it down and was letting wanting so much more! Thank god I had Very Wicked Things on my kindle ;)In Very Wicked Beginnings we get a glimpse into Cuba and Dovey’s lives, both have something in their past that they are trying to forget or hiding from, and trying to do something better with their lives.These two characters are from the total opposite ends of the social spectrum. Cuba is mr. hotshot, “Hollywood” as he’s known by his friends, super rich, and popular, and the star of the football team. Dovey is at BA on scholarship, coming from the poor part of town, and only really hangs out with her best friend Spider.Something happens when Cuba sees Dovey dancing while he’s at football practice and he just can’t get this girl out of his mind, even though he has no clue who she is or what her face looks like. Dovey feels someone looking at her during practice but just brushes it off.Even though this story is short (it’s a novella) we go through a few months time and finally Cuba tries to work through why this girl he hasn’t met is so different, and finally gets the nerve to talk to her. For Dovey, Cuba wants to be different, but is attraction really enough?These two characters are so intriguing, I can’t wait to see more of them and get their story, and what each of them is running from that’s in their past. The first few sentences of this novella grabbed me and I knew I would risk whatever sleep I lost to make sure I read this story and to see what would happen with these characters. This novella will definitely have you aching to read book 2 in the Briarcrest Academy series (Very Wicked Things) and wanting more of Cuba and Dovey.Great job Ilsa on such an amazing novella!! You really know how to make your readers want more! I absolutely loved this novella and can tell I will be loving the next book! Make sure to add this one to your TBR list today!
