Scarlett is an English Literature professor at a small college where some of the male students (and male professors) have trouble with their behavior toward the female students. It's really no different than any other college or university in the country, except at this one, Scarlett makes sure they pay for their crimes. A student at the same college, Carly is thrilled to get out of her abusive father's home and begin her new life. She is thrilled to be taken in by her outgoing roommate Allison, but when Allison is assaulted at a party, Carly is determined to do everything she can to help her friend. No one should be allowed to get away with what he did.
This book was quick, and it grabbed me from the very beginning. I think we have all entertained a revenge fantasy or twenty, and watching Scarlett hold these terrible men accountable and get away with it is absolutely delicious.
He wasn't afraid of me... That was his first mistake.
True justice would have been bolting the fraternity house doors and setting the whole place on fire, burning every one of those boys in their beds.
No wonder he pretends to care so much about his students. We're the only ones still young and foolish enough to fall for his bullshit.
...killing a man is so much more satisfying than fucking a man could ever be.
Tell me those quotes don't make you want to run out and get this book right now! And honestly, you just should. Place the online order (from an independent bookstore if possible) or run out and get your hands on your own copy. I borrowed mine from the library. I really liked this book, and I think you will, too.
