Rites of Spring (Break)

Fans of Cora Carmack (Losing It) and Tammara Weber (Easy) will devour the original New Adult novels: Secret Society Girl, Under the Rose, Rites of Spring (Break), and Tap & Gown. At an elite university, Amy Haskel has been initiated into the country's most notorious secret society. But in this power-hungry world where new blood is at the mercy of old money, hooking up with the wrong people could be fatal.
 
A week of R&R on her Rose & Grave's private island should be all fun in the sun--and an escape from an on-campus feud with a rival society that's turned disturbingly personal. But Amy is bringing a suitcase full of issues to Florida. Graduation from Eli University looms, not to mention unfinished business with a former flame and the confusing transformation of a mysterious Rose & Grave patriarch from sheer evil to dead sexy.
 
Just when Amy thinks Spring Break can't get any less relaxing, a distressing accident puts everyone on edge. And that's only the beginning. It seems that someone has infiltrated the island. There are major Rose & Grave secrets at stake--secrets which could take down one of America's most loathsome figureheads--but this party crasher is serious about one thing: making sure Amy doesn't get back to Eli alive.
